Abstract

An exhaust system includes an exhaust component with a wall having an outer surface and an inner surface that defines an internal exhaust gas flow path. At least one opening is formed in the exhaust component to extend through the wall of the exhaust component from the outer surface to the inner surface. A member is formed from a resistive material and is configured to cover the at least one opening. A diverter is positioned adjacent the at least one opening to block at least a portion of the exhaust gas flow path.
