  Exhaust system function The exhaust system muffles the exhaust gases which flow out of the combustion chamber with severe pulses in order to ensure that a certain noise level is not exceeded and that the exhaust gases do not encounter any major resistance when flowing off.
To reduce noise, some of the components are double-walled.
