Will Increasing the Motorcycle Exhaust Pipe Size Boost Power?
1 Answers
Simply enlarging the motorcycle exhaust pipe will not increase power. Only increasing the exhaust gas flow rate can affect engine performance. Prohibited Modifications: According to Article 16 of the Road Traffic Safety Management Law of the People's Republic of China: No unit or individual may assemble motor vehicles or alter the registered structure, construction, or characteristics of vehicles without authorization. However, the four most common modifications - decals, exhaust systems, auxiliary lights, and tires - do not change the vehicle's structure and therefore fall within the permissible modification range. Decal modifications must be registered with the local vehicle management office, otherwise they may be deemed illegal modifications. Avoid Blindly Installing Performance Air Filters: While performance air filters ("mushroom filters") may slightly improve vehicle performance, they significantly reduce engine durability. Unlike OEM air filters, they cannot filter air as effectively, leading to gradual power loss over time. The incoming dust particles will act like sandpaper, gradually wearing down the engine cylinders during daily operation.
