Each exhaust system is based around 4 parts:
The Exhaust Manifold
Combustion gases leave the cylinders and vent into the exhaust manifold
The Exhaust Pipes & Connectors
Carry exhaust fumes away from the driver and passengers, generally, towards the rear of the vehicle
Muffler - Silencer
Reduces engine noise from the explosions as fuel is ignited; sound is absorbed and soundwaves mostly cancel out
Catalyst (Catalytic Convertor)
Once brought up to temperature by combustion gases; the catalyst helps for carbon dioxide and soot from unburnt and partially combusted fuel
Part of the exhaust gas is fed back into the ignition chamber with fresh fuel and air to help produce a more complete combustion
The EGR valve helps to burn fuel more completely and efficiently
The EGR valve is operated by a vacuum to open a passageway between the exhaust manifold and inlet manifold
By controlling the fuel mix and temperature the EGR valve helps reduce emissions
Acceleration may seem flat and idle speed may seem erratic: other things to consider include oxygen sensor, airflow meter and catalytic convertor
If you think there is a problem with your exhaust or ignition system including sensors and valves then arrange for an inspection and a repair estimate
