aFe air intake systems and
filters are very good at getting air to your engine faster and more efficiently.
However, we realize that it is important to get the air out as well. Just
like anything else, the more you ingest, the more you need to expel, otherwise
things can get clogged up. That is the reason why we offer exhaust systems
to go along with our air intake systems. It a natural extension of our
efforts to enhance the science of airflow management in performance vehicles.
This is especially true in the diesel motor which is simply
a huge air pump. Since diesel engines are a compression ignition engine
and modern diesel-powered vehicles are turbocharged, the more air you pump
in, the more power you generate. However, which turbocharged diesel, it
is very important to get the hot exhaust out or the Exhaust Gas Temperature
(EGT) rise to critical level that could damage the turbo itself. Most
OE manufacturers offer a restrictive 3 1/2" exhaust system which is fine
for normal every day city or highway driving. But you bought a diesel
truck for its towing or work capabilities, didn't you? If so, you want
more power to go up that grade towing your boat, trailer or tools.
Getting the air in will give you more power. Getting
the air out will give you more power. When you get more air in and out
at the same time, you get a lot more power. With our 4" exhaust systems
are mandrel bent aluminized steel which eliminates the sharp bends and
kinks that the factory stock exhaust systems have. The aluminized steel
resists corrosion as well as stainless steel but is priced more economically.
