We are proud to debut our new Endura-Lite Exhaust System. This system is based on exhaust flow testing as a part of our header development. The key goals of the system were compact design and light weight without sacrificing the durability to stand up to long term use, even supercharged.
We have made several key improvements over comparable designs available before today:
Durability:
One of the major improvements over comparable exhausts is the use if heat tempered ceramic wool. Other systems use less expensive fiberglass wool which we have found with time disintegrates and does not hold up to the heat of forced induction systems. The system is manufactured from full stainless steel components including every flange, pipe, canister, and tip. The pipes are mandrel bent and hand TIG welded. The exhaust is produced in the USA where we can guarantee material quality and workmanship consistency.
Drone:
We also addressed a common complaint with other comparable exhaust systems by reducing the drone associated with high performance small muffler designs. A special lightweight tubing was used that is lighter than standard exhaust systems yet slightly thicker gauge that comparable systems reducing the drone produced from harmonics of this type of design.
Fitment:
By using carefully manufactured jigs built from the factory exhaust, we are able to guarantee fitment. Both flange fitment and tip fitment in the rear valence has been improved over comparable designs. In addition, our flange design is also unique in its slotted design. While more expensive to produce, this eases installation due to variance in various aftermarket header designs.
Performance:
The system uses a unique cross over chamber that allows the exhaust pulses entering from the front and rear cylinder banks to equalize with out turbulence from an X or H pipe. The exhaust uses 2 3/8" piping to maximize flow.
The system produces an exotic baritone pitch that adds a unique sound to the NSX enhancing its exotic nature. After more than a year of research and development, we're excited to release an exhaust that we feel is at the pinnacle of design, materials, and workmanship for the NSX.
