It makes me really sad, its a crappy day in america when a good ole boy cant put a loud exhaust on his truck because of ridiculous environmental regulations. I want to put a freakin exhaust on my truck, and this is america, and I should be able go put an exhaust on it. And It doesnt matter how reliable these emissions systems are, they ruin the engine. And I want some noise for goodness sakes.
I watched a recent video on powerstroke help, he was talking about how egr drastically shortens the engine life, because the recirculated exhaust is an abrasive that is being introduced into the combustion chamber, and that these engines are pretty much done at around 200-300K. The cylinder hone is just ruined and the cylinder wall is just completely glazed over. I always wonder why we even have air filters anymore, its not like there isnt a constant abrasive running thru the system anyway, the epa will probably ban those eventually too anyway.
And I can only think its gonna get a lot worse, all these socialists in congress coming up with these ridiculous plans like the green new deal, that basically destroys the entire economy, bans cars, destroys the aviation industry, puts particulate filters on cows, costs 93 trillion dollars, and plunges the country into a dictatorship because thats the only way aoc would be able to achieve trash like this. Its what we call in my family a shit show.
