Designing an effective garage exhaust system requires a working knowledge of airflow rates exhaust temperatures and static pressure restrictions. With more than 40 years of industry experience, we have developed a simple step-by-step process to help you build a system that will best meet your exhaust needs.
Follow the steps below to build an exhaust package that will fit your needs. If at any point you get stuck or have questions,
please feel free to call one of our experts: (866) 651-9764
We need to find a nozzle that will fit your tailpipe specifications... if you have tailpipes on both sides, that’s ok, we’ll deal with that later
Now that we know the shape, we need to know the outside diameter (O. D.) of the tailpipe width. Take that measurement as shown below.
Width (O.D.):
We need to determine how the adapter will fit on the tailpipe. Most older vehicles have a tailpipe that protrudes from the body, allowinng for a spring-clamp attachment. Others are flush with the body, requiring a suction-cup attachment
We need to determine if you need a “Y-connector” to connect dual Tailpipes.
Measure the distance from the tailpipe to the outside
Should we include a door port?
WARNING: Vehicle Exhaust is extremely dangerous and potentially deadly. We always recommend that any system be properly engineered to meet the specifications of your application. If you are using our Crushproof system, we recommend that you use it with a fan and as an intermittent repair solution only, not to be run for long periods of time. This hose is to be used only with naturally aspirated 4 cycle engines running at an idle and under no load. We recommend keeping any run of hose as short as possible preferably 11' or under and sized to include ambient air to cool the exhaust temperatures. This hose is designed to handle frequent temperatures up to 400° and intermittent temperatures to 600°. When using Crushproof hose for the first time, watch closely to verify that the exhaust is exiting the building as designed. IF YOU SEE ANY EXHAUST COMING BACK INTO THE SPACE, THE HOSE IS NOT BEING USED PROPERLY. TURN THE VEHICLE OFF IMMEDIATELY AND CALL OUR EXPERTS.
