The engine exhaust gases flow through the manifold (1) to the turbocharger and then through a pipe (2) to the oxidising catalytic converter (3). In the front section of the exhaust pipe there is a flexible element (4) to limit the transmission of vibrations. The rear section of the exhaust pipe comprises a single silencer (5). Special shields limit the radiation of heat towards the body. The different components are supported by supports (6) and circlips (7) fastened under the body.
