Technical Information
Powerflow produces one of the worlds finest ranges of custom build stainless steel components. The design of the Powerflow exhaust system can be traced back to the company's roots as a manufacturer of one-off performance exhaust systems. Wherever possible, a Powerflow exhaust is designed to deliver an improvement in engine output and performance whilst still meeting required noise criteria.
Performance
Actual performance gains will vary from vehicle to vehicle. Below is an illustrative example of a test carried out on a Citroen Saxo VTR by 'REVS' magazine. You will notice that Powerflow did not need to remove the catalytic converter from the vehicle to produce the joint - highest power increase. The Powerflow system also produced a better torque improvement than its nearest rival. The rest of the figures speak for themselves.

Materials
All systems use only 304 grade (non-magnetic) stainless tubing and tailpipes.
THE PERFORMANCE, APPEARANCE AND LIFETIME WARRANTY ARE IDENTICAL ON ALL SILENCER CHOICES.
Silencers are produced using the most modern weld free techniques - all seams are mechanically formed to minimise material damage caused by welding.
