The "Exhaust Wizard" Keeps With The Magic

Power Flow Systems, manufacturers of a tuned exhaust system that is now available for a wide range of single engine aircraft, has introduced a new "short stack" exhaust pipe that can be retrofitted.

Designed to significantly reduce the profile and weight of the original exhaust duct, the new version protrudes no more than the original equipment on the Cessnas that have been STCd.

While dramatically changing the forward appearance of the aircraft on which it is mounted, the shortened version offers many of the performance enhancing qualities of earlier models of the Power Flow Exhausts Systems. With the ceramic coated, optional version, the short stack will retain its shiny appearance for many hours of use.

The optional short stack is available with new orders or as a retrofit change out for second generation Power Flow Systems for $450. The older, first generation systems can be exchanged for $2,200, substantially lower than the original $3,875 purchase price.

"It provides a much cleaner look," said Power Flow General Manager Darren Tilman. "There's less drag, two pounds less weight, and it's easier to install. It's what our customers asked for and we're pleased we could make it happen."

The company expects to introduce similar products for the Piper PA 28 and Grumman AA5 series in the near future.
