Gibson Performance

About Gibson

THE GIBSON DIFFERENCE: USEABLE POWER! Gibson delivers its optimal power in the low to mid range of 2,000 to 4,000 RPM. Other exhaust manufacturers claim to generate more power, but their optimal range is closer to 5,000-6,000 RPM. Such a high RPM range for horsepower and torque is almost never used by street vehicles, and is more a benefit for race vehicles. That's why Gibson exhausts are designed for practical "real world" driving, performance enthusiasts, and heavy duty work use.

TURBULENCE: Every point where exhaust gas pulses enter or exit an exhaust component causes turbulence. Gibson Exhaust Systems use two methods to reduce turbulence to the absolute minimum: First, their Superflow muffler utilizes a patented Superior flow design that assists exhaust gas in flowing out of the system. Secondly, Gibson uses slip-fit joining, where every pipe fits into the larger opening of the next pipe downstream. This design creates far less tubulence than flange-and-gasket or ball-and-socket joining. The end result is minimal backpressure at every joint, giving you maximum exhaust flow for maximum power gains.

RESTRICTION AND FLOW: Power-robbing restriction occurs at two critical points: The pipe bends and the muffler. Gibson uses a chambered and baffled dynamic structure to dramatically reduce restriction and provide far more flow than screened or packed mufflers. Plus, each Gibson exhaust tube is mandrel-bent, which maintains the same pipe diameter through every bend. Consistent diameters let the exhaust gases flow through just as well as a straight pipe. Gibson pipes are also larger than stock, providing more open flow with less restriction.

BIGGER ISN'T BETTER: Without the proper muffler, a too-large pipe will only boost top-end power and actually reduce low end torque. Gibson doesn't focus on simply maximizing flow - they strive to make that flow as efficient as possible. That's why you won't see insanely high-diameter pipes on Gibson Exhausts.

WHERE DOES THE POWER COME FROM? Typical stock mufflers create a 34% (or more) exhaust restriction. Gibson power-tunes every SuperFlow muffler specifically to each vehicle, resulting in restriction as low as 5%. When you need trailer-pulling, hill-climbing power and torque, Gibson flow is the way to go.

GIBSON SUPERFLOW MUFFLERS feature a superior design of louvers, chambers, and baffles that supply optimum exhaust flow. This increases and maximizes your low-end torque powerband, making Gibson the perfect choice for people serious about hauling and towing. Gibson SuperFlow Mufflers are also the ideal choice to compliment your vehicle's unique performance characteristics, providing increased HP and fuel economy for the performance-oriented daily driver.

Gibson Superior Flow Technology: Gibson Mufflers are chambered & baffled for unrestricted flow and better volume efficiency. Plus, there's no packing to blow out, ever! That means SuperFlow Mufflers won't get louder over time. Their heavy-gauged, fully-welded Aluminized Steel construction offers the perfect combination of durability, long life, and affordability. On many systems you can also choose aircraft-quality T-304 stainless steel for optimum corrosion resistance and great looks.

When you demand high performance where it counts, look no further than the superior flow, build quality, and design of Gibson Exhaust.
