When attempting to increase theVolumetric Efficiency (VE) of an engine, it’s important to reduce air flow losses in the paths to and from the engine.

The standard exhaust system is quite restrictive so it’s important to minimise (or preferably eliminate!) the back pressure within it.

Being particularly concerned about quality and efficacy, Nick chose a MUGEN exhaust system for Projekt HYCAEI.

Below you can see a comparison of the standard and MUGEN exhaust systems.

Manufactured from high grade polished stainless steel, the MUGEN exhaust is probably the best quality system on the market!

The well established relationship between Honda and MUGEN ensures that the fitment is absolutely perfect as you may expect!

Below is a view of the MUGEN exhaust system as seen from the cat back.
