Exhaust

The exhaust system in your Nissan car, van, SUV, or truck is responsible for getting rid of the byproducts generated when your engine burns fuel. By collecting these harmful elements and safely releasing the cleaned gases, your exhaust system keeps both you and your passengers safe. As a bonus, it's also good for the environment!

The pollutants first pass through a catalytic converter. The toxic molecules are captured and then separated into oxygen and nitrogen. The oxygen is allowed to pass through while nitrogen gets contained. This process burns up carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons, leaving water vapors and carbon dioxide.

The gases pass on to through exhaust manifold and on to the exhaust pipe. While that's going on, the resonator and muffler reduce engine noise and ensure optimal airflow. Lastly, the tail pipe releases the cleaner air.
