With this type, increase in horsepower is savored by the vehicle with much better breathing capacity. In general the car's exhaust system is made up sensitive components such as, manifold, header, air pump, converter, muffler valve and exhaust tip, pipe gasket. Exhaust tip can be seen outside the car's underbody although it may depend on the location of the exhaust system.

Some of which are Hydrocarbons, Nitrogen Oxides, Carbon Monoxide and Carbon Dioxide.

Fuel molecules that have not been burned thoroughly results to Hydrocarbon exhausts. Hydrocarbon comes from the mixture of nitrogen oxides and sunlight which is also the main elements of smog. It is considered as the most common cause of air problems on urban areas. Effects on health include simple irritation of the eyes, lung damage and other respiratory problems. It is also one of the supposed potential causes of cancer. Nitrogen oxides, scientifically known as NOx, are the emission produced once a chemical reaction is formed between nitrogen and oxygen atoms react under high pressure and temperature. Like hydrocarbons, it can also cause acid rain. The car's exhaust system has catalytic converters that break down nitrogen gases which actually forms nitrous oxide. Cars with converters usually produce half of the total nitrous oxide present in the atmosphere.

CO or carbon monoxide is colorless and odorless but it is as harmful as the other mentioned exhausts. Like hydrocarbon, it is also the result of incomplete burning of fuel emitted from the exhaust pipes. Cars have the biggest share in the carbon monoxide present in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide on the other hand is the end-product of complete or perfect combustion and does not directly affect health. Yet it is a greenhouse gas that leads to global warming.
