Honda generators with added exhaust sytem

I found this guy on line who has two 2000 watt Honda generators and wanted to direct the exhaust up and away from the bed of his pickup truck bed. He used 1" Electrical EMT and compression couplings.
See pictures
PS He is from Louisanna

Should have gone with twin stacks for the ultimate in looks and performance.

You would think that you would be restricting the exhaust with that length of piping, because those honda's dont' have a whole lot of exhaust pressure....

That guy has an excessive amount of time and metal on his hands!

Yes it is a lot to move the exhaust. without the tubing the hot exhaust would still rise and not settle. I thought you would find it a bit funny and a little overboard.
Billy Bob has his patent pending.

Looks like he used to build a lot of toys with his erector set when he was a kid.

An angled deflector plate at the exhaust opening would likely do as well!

Alot of work for the little amount of exhaust your probly not around while it running. Something to keep him buissy.


Maybe mount them on top of your trailer with an extention cord. LOL
