GENERAL INFORMATION

The system of production of exhaust gases consists of a reception exhaust pipe, the additional and main exhaust silencer. In cars with system of purification of exhaust gases instead of the additional exhaust silencer the catalyst is established. All elements of system have folding connections and can be replaced separately. The reception exhaust pipe has additional fastening to a car body.
