A while back, we conducted a course in Exhaust Anatomy 101 to provide a beginner’s look at aftermarket exhaust systems. Now that you’ve brushed up on the basics, we’ll show you what makes an aftermarket exhaust system such a popular upgrade and provide tips on how to choose the system that’s best for your vehicle. Exhaust Construction: Crush Bends vs. Mandrel Bends So what makes aftermarket exhaust systems one of the most popular performance upgrades among hot rodders? Like aftermarket headers, performance exhaust systems are built differently than their stock counterparts to reduce power-robbing restriction, promote exhaust scavenging, and ultimately free up more horsepower. The first difference between a stock and aftermarket exhaust is the diameter of the pipes. The diameter ranges available on aftermarket exhaust systems vary depending on the application. However, these systems typically come with larger diameter options to flow larger volumes of air. Again, the proper ...

What It Is: The next and eighth generation of the Golf, Volkswagen’s global best-seller. It comes later than expected—VW project development got sidetracked by the diesel scandal—and it represents a relatively small technological step forward from the current Golf Mark 7, which migrated to the MQB platform from the previous model’s PQ35 bones. The eighth-gen Golf retains the current model’s proportions, but it will get a front graphic treatment reminiscent of VWs from a few generations back, marking a departure from the current Golf’s mug. The Golf R will be more dramatically differentiated from the regular lineup than it is today, with a wider body. Why It Matters: The Golf 8 will need to continue generating the nameplate’s usual large profits, since VW is planning to spend them on the global rollout of electric and electrified vehicles. And the car will need to make gains in efficiency now that the company is slowly weaning itself away from diesel propulsion, a field in ...

Twenty five years after the outrageous LM002 ended production, Lamborghini is getting back in the SUV game with a new model, the Urus. We haven't seen it in the flesh yet, but we actually know quite a lot about this new SUV. It's just two months away from making its debut, so in the meantime, let's get caught up on what we've already heard. -It's Set to Be the First Turbocharged Lamborghini Lamborghini is one of the few automakers that has stuck steadfastly to naturally aspirated engines, but that's set to change with the Urus. Company CEO Stefano Domenicali confirmed earlier this year that the SUV would get a new 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 making 650 hp. Interestingly, this engine isn't the new 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 developed by Porsche for use across the VW Group—Lambo's V8 is brand-exclusive. Lamborghini went for a twin-turbo V8 presumably to improve fuel economy, but also because it better suit...

Toyota has a new rear-drive sports car coming, with help from BMW. Here's what we know, and what we think we know, about it. Toyota reentered the rear-wheel drive sports car game with the 86 (née Scion FR-S) back in 2012, and now it's got something bigger in the works. Something that could be a successor to the mighty Supra, one of Toyota's most beloved cars of all time. There's a lot we know about this car and there's a lot we've heard, so we're compiling all of it here, just for you. We don't know for sure whether this car will wear the Supra badge, but for simplicity's sake, that's how we're going to refer to it for now. Who doesn't want a new Supra? After months of us waiting, Toyota has finally set a date for the reveal of its new sports car—March 6th, at the Geneva Motor Show. It looks like it'll be a race-car concept, rather than a production ca...

The way in which an engine is orientated can have a huge influence on the rest of a car’s design. Should the car be rear-wheel drive? What size of engine is expected? Are there space issues that could influence which way the engine lies? All these questions have to be answered by the engineers responsible for the car, as the powertrain setup can have a large impact on how the car goes, handles and stops. Looking at front-engined cars, the two possible orientations are longitudinal and transverse, with each having its own benefits and drawbacks that can govern which is chosen for the car at hand. In-light of this engineering decision, here’s a basic guide to the features of each engine layout and which is best for different applications. Transverse engines Transverse engines are mounted perpendicularly to the direction of travel, lying horizontally within the engine bay. This is predominantly used in front-engined, front-wheel drive setups but has also been implemented i...

No more boring introductions, lets get started & understand how does a Wankel engine work & what exactly it is ! History :- The first Wankel engine was developed by German engineer – Felix Wankel. Wankel received his first patent for the engine in 1929. However, the Wankel engine design used today  is designed by Hanns Dieter Paschke – which he adopted forming the modern engine ! Wankel engine :- Wankel engine is an Internal combustion engine unlike the piston cylinder arrangement. This engine uses the eccentric rotor design which directly converts the pressure energy of gases into rotatory motion. While in the piston-cylinder arrangement, the linear motion of the piston is used to convert into rotatory motion of crankshaft. Basically, in a simple way, the rotor revolve in housings shaped in a fat figure-of-eight. Rotor :- The rotor has three convex faces which acts like a piston. The 3 corners of rotor forms a seal to the outside of the combustion ...

There’s a reason why the G-Class is a must-have for car enthusiasts. Whether it’s the vehicle’s sleek exterior, its ability to withstand even the harshest conditions, or the fact that the G-Class epitomizes elegance and edginess at the same time, this car has been a fan favorite for 35 years. Here are 7 quick facts about this off-roading luxury SUV. 1. The G-Class Has a Great Legacy Behind It When Mercedes-Benz introduced the G-Class to the world in 1979, they strictly made it to be an off-road vehicle. 33 years after it emerged onto the scene, almost no changes have been made to its exterior styling, even though the German luxury car manufacturer releases a special edition of the vehicle every 5 years. Two months ago, Mercedes- Benz celebrated 35 years of this model with a special “Edition 35” version for the G350 BlueTEC and G500 models. 2. The G in “G-Class” stands for Geländewagen (or “cross country vehicle”) The ruggedness of the G-Class is what makes it a popular...

Petrolheads love forced induction because it's one of the easiest ways to boost modest power to mad power quickly. Despite the power benefits of adding a supercharger or turbocharger, there are those who still prefer to keep their engines naturally aspirated, and these are the reasons why... 1. The purity of sound Ever since the first production turbocharged cars came out, petrolheads have been intoxicated by the whoosh of a spooling turbo. Equally, the high-pitched whine of a supercharger is hard to ignore!  However, the clean sound of an N/A car revving right the way up through the range is spectacular, especially for purists. As you step on the gas, you hear the induction noise start to build from a low thrum all the way to a distinctive wail. No amount of boost will ever be able to replace the honest scream that comes from an N/A motor. 2. Ease and peace of mind Most forced induction cars are developed to the point where the boost is reliable, but at the back o...

VolksWagen Jetta Mk4 Custom Coupe 4 Motion R32 Turbo Build Project He and his mates were out hooning in a borrowed MK4 R32, when they hit a 30-mph corner at 100 mph. They survived, the R32 did not. But the 4Motion lives on in a MK4 Jetta coupe. You heard right. The ol' Waterfest/H20/Motorstadt crowd may recall 1552 Design's Project X, which the shop chopped a Jetta sedan into the coupe many wished VW would build. This Kiwi project employs the guts from that lost R32—the carcass of which the builder acquired from the previous owner—in the service of a Mk4 Jetta Coupe 4 Motion R32 Turbo build. A noble effort indeed. As Builder explains, to build a MK4 Jetta coupe, you must take the doors from a Golf three-door hatch (they're longer), move the B-pillar to accommodate the new portals, "then fill in the gap between the door and the rear quarter panel." Easy. ----------------------------------------------------- This video purpose is to tell world about amazin...
