Thinking about changing your ATV’s exhaust system? As with any modification you make, the best option for you and your ATV depends on what you want to improve. Check out three reasons you should upgrade your ATV exhaust.
Increase Horsepower
One of the best ways to make your ATV faster is to upgrade your exhaust system. And new exhausts can also take some weight off your vehicle. Whether you drive a utility or sport ATV, you’ll appreciate the improved performance of your ride.
Your upgraded exhaust system can increase the oxygen in your combustion chamber by efficiently removing exhaust gases. The higher oxygen content gives your engine more power.
Customize Style
When it comes to aftermarket exhausts, you have two types to choose from: slip-on and full system. You can use either type of exhaust upgrade to customize the look of your ATV.
A slip-on exhaust replaces the muffler. A full system exhaust replaces the header, midpipe, and muffler. If you’re focused on modifying the style and sound of your ATV, a slip-on is a more economical way to achieve your goals. If you want to also increase horsepower, opt for the full system.
Modify Sound
The final reason you should upgrade your ATV exhaust is to modify the sound of your ride. Depending on where you’re riding your ATV, you might want to quiet the exhaust to minimize how much you disturb wildlife. Or you might need to reduce sound pollution to comply with regulations.
If your current exhaust system is loud, that might be due to cracks or rusted areas. Replacing the system will improve the sound. But if you don’t need to replace the whole system, an exhaust silencer is generally the most effective way to suppress sound.
You should upgrade your ATV’s exhaust with a slip-on or full system change. This modification can increase horsepower, add style, and modify the sound of your ATV.
