Aftermarket Performance Exhaust System

  To Wrap or Not to Wrap? Heat Wrap vs Ceramic Coating Here at Top Speed Pro 1 Performance, we get the question quite often, “should I wrap my exhaust system?” This is a great question, and we hope to shed some light on this topic with this segment. There are many benefits to wrapping your exhaust. First, you can increase performance slightly by containing the radiant heat inside the headers and/or manifold. The more heat you retain inside the pipes, the faster the exhaust can escape and exit the system therefore removing heat faster from inside the engine valves, pistons, etc. This will allow the engine to perform more efficiently and should give you a bump in overall brake horsepower. Another benefit to wrapping the headers is to reduce the amount of heat in the engine bay therefore causing less wear on the engine components, especially rubber hoses, wiring harnesses, plastic components, airboxes, etc. It also reduces the amount of heat on turbochargers which will allow them to p...

  An exhaust valve is designed to release burned gases from a cylinder. The exhaust valve will open or close depending on if it is an electronic valve or a remote-controlled valve and also depending on the engine size and manufacturer. The opening of the valve will allow for more exhaust flow through a secondary exhaust pipe allowing the engine to breathe more, producing more overall flow as well as sound and performance. The exhaust valve is not a required component of the exhaust system but is very helpful in allowing you to control the amount of exhaust flow as well as the sound and performance.   Many performance vehicles come from the factory with a valve exhaust system as these high-performance engines benefit from the ability to control the exhaust flow. Often, the vehicle will have an electronic system which automatically opens and closes the valves depending on the RPM or speed of the engine. This is to allow for maximum performance of the engine when the eng...

What should a quality muffler look like on the inside? A good quality exhaust will contain a muffler containing various tubes, cavities, and materials to properly mitigate the unwanted sounds from the engine exhaust. Often times in this process, your stock factory muffler deadens the sound to the point where you can barely hear it at all, as well as limiting some of the performance from the engine. This is why many car owners choose to replace their factory exhaust, mufflers and/or resonators with aftermarket exhaust components that open up that exhaust flow which will increase the volume and enhance the overall sound of the exhaust while also increasing the overall performance of the engine. A muffler is designed to be positioned near the end of the exhaust system in order to deaden the overall sound produced from the combustion engine. A muffler can contain a series of tubes, cavities, baffles to remove various high or low pitched frequencies from the exhaust sound as well as materia...

  TITANIUM VS STAINLESS STEEL EXHAUST? So, you want to upgrade your vehicle’s performance, but don’t know where to start? One of the most popular places to start any performance upgrade is exhaust. The exhaust system is not within the engine, so it is typically easy to access and somewhat easy to install for the novice performance enthusiast or beginner. It also provides a tangible and noticeable performance gain, as well as giving you that aggressive growly tone that your car lacks from the factory! However, if you do some research online you will find numerous brands of exhaust to choose from, a wide range of pricing, and even a wide range of exhaust materials available. Among the most common choices are stainless steel and titanium. Stainless-steel is the most commonly used, and less expensive. However, titanium is a stronger material and can be heat-treated to create a range of vivid colors on the material which some folks just can’t live without! This begs the question: which ...
