Add HP Without Losing MPG

sports car with performance exhaust
Today im working on giving my 2000 mustang more horse power without losing any gas milage. One of the simplest ways to do this is to install performance exhaust. The function of the exhaust is to get rid of the burnt fuel from the engine. Exhaust filters out the harmful emissions while keeping the car quiet. Factory exhaust has alot of restrictive devices on it,  this keeps the car quiet. Performance exhaust eliminates those restrictions and allows your car to function at its absolute best. Factory exhaust restrictions include factory catalytic converters, factory mufflers, and small exhaust tubing. All of these components are nessasary in order to pass state emissions and inspection laws. Performance exhaust still has all of those components but have fewer restrictive devices. This make the exhaust louder and more boastful. Installing performance exhaust to your car will add 15 to 30 horsepower while increasing miles per gallon by up to 10.

Another modification you can make to increase your horsepower and miles per gallon is by installing an performance air intake system. Factory air intake systems provide a key aspect to a running engine, air. Air mixes with the fuel to make it more combustible  and more efficient in the performance of the engine. With out proper air flow the engine would not be able to run. Factory air intake systems have very efficient but restrictive air filters and inlet tubing. Replacing your air intake system with and aftermarket system lets your car function with more ease. Performance intake systems come with less restrictive filters, larger tubing, and more efficient delivery systems. Installing a performance air intake system will add anywhere from 5 to 30 horsepower, while improving miles per gallon by up to 15.
