The internal design is optimized to improve exhaust gas scavenging, which can contribute to better engine efficiency and horsepower.

No specific user operation is required for the muffler itself once installed. Its function is passive, working continuously as the engine runs.

6. Vzdrževanje

Flowmaster mufflers are designed for durability and require minimal maintenance. However, periodic inspection is recommended to ensure longevity and optimal performance.

• Vizualni pregled: Periodically inspect the muffler and exhaust system for signs of rust, cracks, dents, or loose connections.
• Hanger Check: Ensure all exhaust hangers are intact and securely holding the system in place. Worn or broken hangers can lead to excessive movement and damage.
