A type of exhaust. Features a straight through exhaust tube to provide as much exhaust flow as possible (with holes or baffles in it to direct the exhaust into the packing) that is surrounded by a steel wool or fiberglass packing (sometimes both, varies by manufacturer) to make it relatively quiet considering its a straight through exhaust. Also look up fart can performance exhaust. Sometimes called cherrybombs because it was a major manufacturer of the exhaust.
"The fart can is the same thing as a glasspack"
"Both the glasspack and fart can exhaust work on the principle of absorption"

I had a trucker's tan after driving for 10 straight hours on a sunny day.
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
