What is it with muffler tips? You can see a lot of cars with huge muffler tips that produces noise you can hear 3 blocks away. I've read an article once that having a larger exhaust pipe could actually help the engine a bit because the large exhaust pipe and muffler helps the engine by letting out the exhaust a lot easier. The engine doesn't need to force the exhaust out anymore.
But then I also read a lot of articles claiming that these changes does not affect the car whatsoever other than just making a lot of noise. I don't get it. Although I have to admit having a slightly larger muffler tip does look a bit better than a small one.
Whatever the reason may be, it does help the overall look of the car. Regardless of being able to help the car become faster or not.
