The main experimental parameters were engine speeds and torsion coil spring constants in the active muffler. When the muffler valve spring has a low spring constant of k = 0.75, the sound pressure level was low at the region of engine speed 2000 to 2500 r/min, and the velocity of exhaust gas was high at spring constant k = 0.75. When the engine speed was under 1500 r/min, the mean concentration of CO was high in case without muffler valve. When the engine speed in the range of 1600 to 2600 r/min with spring constant k = 0.75, the mean HC concentration showed the lowest value.
