Rear Silencer

Rear silencer – more sound for driving enjoyment

The sound of a vehicle plays a major role in tuning. True tuners don’t just want to see and feel their modified car – they also want to hear it. That’s why optimizing the exhaust system is an essential part of a well-rounded appearance. Retrofitting a rear silencer makes tuner hearts beat faster. A rear silencer not only gives the car a sporty look, but also delivers a powerful, voluminous sound. The special feature of a sports rear silencer used in tuning is its deep and sporty tone. If you are looking for a high-quality rear silencer, TA Technix is the right place for you. Browse our selection now and give your vehicle the finishing touch.

What is a rear silencer?

The rear silencer (often also referred to as a muffler) is part of the exhaust system. It is located at the end of the system and is responsible for reducing noise emissions by minimizing sound waves. This ensures that the vehicle complies with legally prescribed noise limits. Through a system of multiple chambers, sound can be distributed and reduced by reflection. Another method is absorption, where insulating material minimizes noise. Modern designs combine different damping methods.

In summary, a rear silencer in its classic form is responsible for directing exhaust gases, reducing noise by minimizing sound waves, and lowering thermal energy.

In tuning, special sports rear silencers are used. These give the vehicle a deep sound. Stainless steel tailpipes also add a sporty and attractive appearance.

How does a rear silencer work?

The rear silencer (RS) directs exhaust gases outward and reduces noise. The exhaust system consists of the manifold, catalytic converter (depending on model year and EU standard), middle silencer, rear silencer, and tailpipe. Some vehicles also have a pre-silencer. However, modern vehicles usually do without it, as the catalytic converter already reduces a significant amount of sound waves.

If the rear silencer is designed as a reflection silencer, the sound is distributed across several chambers. However, the resulting back pressure can negatively affect performance. An absorption silencer features a perforated pipe wrapped in insulating material, which absorbs sound and converts thermal energy. Thanks to reduced back pressure, engine performance is maintained.

Our recommendation for rear silencers

Installing a sports rear silencer can slightly increase performance, but in most cases, real gains cannot be achieved by replacing the rear silencer alone. If you want to improve driving efficiency in addition to sound, the entire exhaust system should be replaced with a sporty version. It is important that the system is optimally matched to the engine and the vehicle.

While a rear silencer can be installed with basic automotive knowledge, a complete exhaust system should be precisely fitted by a professional. For road use, TÜV approval, registration in the vehicle documents, or a general operating permit (ABE) is required.
