The purpose of the Mitsubishi Eclipse Exhaust System is to dispose of waste gases from the cylinders of the engine after fuel is burned. Today's high-tech exhaust systems consist of numerous components that work together with other engine systems to produce the ideal balance between power and fuel economy. If one element of the exhaust system is defective, it can have some negative effects on your vehicle's engine performance.

It all starts with the exhaust manifold, which is also known as the header. This is made from cast iron in order to withstand the temperatures generated by the combustion process.

It collects exhaust gas from the cylinders then passes it on to the catalytic converter. Here, deadly pollutants like carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrous oxides are "converted" with the use of a platinum "catalyst" which breaks molecular bonds and recombines them into less harmful compounds.

When this is not functioning properly, your vehicle's exhaust will give off a foul odor, and your vehicle may not meet state and local emissions standards. Next, exhaust is analyzed by the oxygen sensor, which literally "senses" amounts of oxygen in these waste gases. Based on this data, the fuel injectors will adjust the fuel mixture for the conditions of the moment. The next component of the exhaust system is the muffler, which "muffles" the noise of the explosions taking place in the cylinders. Exhaust gas finally exits through the tip, or tailpipe. You can add an x-pipe for extra performance. Located underneath the vehicle, exhaust systems tend to suffer more than their fair share of stress.With our low prices however, it's easy to keep your Mitsubishi Eclipse Exhaust System it top condition!
