Performance & Operation
Does the Liberator Exhaust System increase my fuel economy?
Yes. If installed correctly on a Class 7 or Class 8 power unit, the Liberator Exhaust System will provide you with improved fuel economy, either increased MPG or GPH. Actual on-road trucker experience, an SAE II test, independent laboratory and university test programs, validate that the Liberator Exhaust System improves mileage from 5% up to 10%.

How does the Liberator Exhaust System work?
The Liberator Exhaust System uses wave-movement technology; a technology that has been granted United States and foreign patents. Through this free-flow and sound-canceling technology, the Liberator Exhaust System simultaneously reduces exhaust noise while nearly eliminating backpressure to the engine. Relieving back-pressure lets the engine operate more efficiently, breathe better, and last longer.

What about other products that claim to get me better mileage?
Lots of products make all sorts of claims. Our engineers have purchased many of them, disassembled them, and investigated their construction and components. We are prohibited from commenting further on specific competitors’ products here on our website, but at a recent truck equipment show, our competitors sure took a lot of photos of our product and copied all our literature!
Click on the “Support” section of this website to download the Independent Test Results, which gives you specific test results from actual power units. The Oakland University’s Truck Technology Research Center conducted an eight-week program in coordination with DaimlerChrysler to thoroughly test the Liberator Exhaust System and its performance. As the test results show, the Liberator Exhaust System resulted in an average mileage improvement of 8.9%, with specific power units improving from 5.4% to 12.1%. That’s the equivalent of getting an 8.9% discount on every gallon of fuel you buy all year long!

Does the Liberator Exhaust System only save fuel, or does it have other features?
Although the Liberator Exhaust System’s primary selling feature is its ability to help you improve fuel economy, it also has other positive engine effects: less wear, longer life, more turbo boost, less turbo lag, less downshifting and greater power.
Furthermore, the Liberator Exhaust System significantly lowers exhaust noise, both in cab and outside, improving operator comfort and reducing fatigue. Download the Independent Test Results document in the “Support” section of this website to receive the data on noise reduction. The Liberator Exhaust System exceeds California and U.S. federal standards.

What engine horsepower can the Liberator Exhaust System handle?
Due to the unique free-flow design of the Liberator Exhaust System, the unit is not constrained by the horsepower of your application. The important consideration is exhaust pipe diameter. The Liberator Exhaust System currently is available with 5-inch diameter inlet and outlet tubes, which works with most Class 7 and 8 applications. If you have a need for a different inlet or outlet pipe diameter, please contact us toll-free at 1-866-400-0075 (or 1-248-865-2003).

Will the Liberator Exhaust System rust or corrode?
The Liberator Exhaust System is manufactured of 304 CRES – 100% stainless steel inside and out, so it resists rust, road chemicals and grime, fuel spills and spray, and anything nature can throw at it. Because the Liberator Exhaust System is 100% stainless steel, there is no chrome plating to scratch or peel off and no aluminized coatings to wear off. Scratches won’t affect the corrosion resistance and the polished surface provides a chrome-like finish.

Can the Liberator Exhaust System be installed in buses?
In most applications, yes. Engine and exhaust installations are more constrained in typical rear-drive buses than conventional trucks and tractor-trailer rigs. Therefore, it is always best to compare the Liberator Exhaust System’s product dimensions with your available mounting space. You can download the product dimensions from the “Support” page of this website. The Liberator Exhaust System currently has a 5-inch diameter inlet and outlet pipe. If you need a different size, please contact us toll-free at 1-866-400-0075 (or 1-248-865-2003).

Can the Liberator Exhaust System be installed in off-road equipment?
In most applications, yes. The variety of off-road equipment is very extensive so it is impossible for us to know about every application. Therefore, it is always best to compare the Liberator Exhaust System’s product dimensions with your available mounting space. You can download the product dimensions from the “Support” page of this website. The Liberator Exhaust System currently has a 5-inch diameter inlet and outlet pipe. If you need a different size, please contact us toll-free at 1-866-400-0075 (or 1-248-865-2003).

Can the Liberator Exhaust System be installed in marine (boat) applications?
The Liberator Exhaust System is made of 304 stainless steel, so it is suitable for marine environments. In order to properly determine whether the Liberator Exhaust System will fit in your application, please compare the Liberator Exhaust System’s product dimensions with your available mounting space. You can download the product dimensions from the “Support” page of this website. The Liberator Exhaust System currently has a 5-inch diameter inlet and outlet pipe. If you need a different size, please contact us toll-free at 1-866-400-0075 (or 1-248-865-2003).
Can the Liberator Exhaust System be installed in stationary generators?
In most applications, yes. Stationary generator installation depends on the placement of the exhaust piping and the enclosure, if any, around the diesel engine. The variety of gensets is very extensive so it is impossible for us to know about every application. Therefore, it is always best to compare the Liberator Exhaust System’s product dimensions with your available mounting space. You can download the product dimensions from the “Support” page of this website. The Liberator Exhaust System currently has a 5-inch diameter inlet and outlet pipe. If you need a different size, please contact us toll-free at 1-866-400-0075 (or 1-248-865-2003).
