Whether it's in the style of gaskets between the various tube sections, or the types of fasteners holding them together, exhaust system designers understand small parts make big differences. After all, they're the parts that prevent exotic tubes and costly cats from beating themselves into so many kilos of scrap metal.

Possibly the most understated of small parts, however, are the rubber brackets and hangers used to secure exhaust systems to the chassis. These heavy duty rubber and combination rubber and steel support hangers are responsible for preventing the exhaust system from sagging, or worse, dragging the ground. They're also critical parts of every vehicle's total performance package - and the difference they make can affect engine performance in ways that are impossible to predict.

Car upgrades can get costly and outright confusing (or counterproductive) if not done right. For budding gearheads, the first place to start if power gains are the main priority is optimised airflow in and out of the car. This means matching air intakes and exhausts that not only add a performance boost by maximising engine efficiency, but also bring a few surprises well worth the outlay.

There’s a clear rift in the world of motorcycles, splitting riders between the two types of engines most of them ride (apart from electric ones). You have the air-cooled purists, riding your typical Harley cruiser, and the liquid-cooled gang that worship high redlines and straight-line...

When you're buying a used or a new car, one of the first things you'll want to do is take a look at the car's exhaust system. The car exhaust directly impacts the way your car drives and the gas mileage it will get. It can be a cosmetic detail to some people as well, but that's another topic. In this article I'll discuss the importance of a properly functioning exhaust system. Think of the car exhaust system as the lungs of your car. It allows air to run through the engine and spits it back out. The way this is executed will affect the performance of your car. A poor exhaust system will result in you getting poor gas mileage and in a worst case scenario, you won't pass the emission test.
