Your exhaust system is more than just a muffler. It is comprised of a series of pipes beneath your car connecting your muffler to your catalytic converter. The primary function of the exhaust system is to direct the exhaust fumes away from passengers and into the air safely.

How Does The Exhaust System Work?

The exhaust system in a car works to direct waste gases from the engine to the rear of your car, discharging the them outside. These waste gases can be hazardous to human health, as they contain dangerous substances such as carbon monoxide.

There are other functions credited to the exhaust system as well. It also works to convert these pollutants into a cleaner emission, increase engine performance and also reduce noise.
