DESCRIPTION

The engine exhaust gases flow through a manifold into the turbine for engine boosting. From the turbine, through an elbow, the exhaust gases reach the front section of the exhaust pipe. In the front section of the exhaust pipe, there is a flexible bellow type section which compensates for the thermic expansion and vibrations from the engine. From the front section the exhaust gases flow into the central silencer and from here to the two rear silencers. The connection of the various sections of the exhaust pipes is achieved with clamps and they are supported by rings and elastic supports.
