ABSTRACT:
An exhaust system for a v-configured, internal combustion engine having a close-coupled, catalytic converter having a converter assembly located adjacent the engine comprising a pre-chamber upstream of the catalyst support which has inlet assemblies oriented, and a cross-section configured to induce a centrifugal swirling action in the exhaust gas as it passes therethrough. The swirling action of the exhaust gas inhibits reversion of particles, trapped upstream of the converter, into the engine.
