GUIDE - 4-Stroke Muffler Burn Avoidance

Are you getting a bit hot under the collar (or your right side and arm perhaps?) from your exhaust being so close to the seat on your 4-stroke engine?

If you're like thousands of other excited 4-stroke drivers around Australia you'll no doubt be aware of the issues caused by the exhaust outlet from the head being located so close to the seat and may have experienced suit burns and singes.

IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE SO UNCOMFORTABLE!

Torini have just released their new hack which provides an awesome way to ensure the heat is significantly reduced to save singes and burns!

TC210 CLUBMAXX EXHAUST PIPE INSULATION by TORINI ENGINES

Depending on the brand of chassis the header pipe of the exhaust will vary in distance from the seat. We recommend regardless of distance to apply heat insulation to the header pipe in the following manner.

This will do two things. • Stop heat transfer from the exhaust through your seat adding to driver comfort. • Stop the potential to accidently burn a hole in your driving suit. Applying this kind of insulation to 4 stroke kart engines is common place.

HOW TO GUIDE:

CAUTION

DO NOT WRAP ALL THE WAY AROUND THE PIPE

• The bottom of the pipe must be left open for air cooling. • Wrapping the whole pipe will cause it to overheat and fail.
