Question:

why do they call hospital uniforms scrubs?

I always wondered why hospital scrubs were called scrubs-anybody know the answer to this question?

Answer:

The Magnaflow outflows the stock exhaust by far. It's one of the best flowing systems out there. You won't notice a HUGE increase but it'll still be noticeable, plus the tone will change(it sounds good BTW).
You wont loose power, you wont gain alot unless you also go with a high flow intake. or change your heads or cam or something else to change how much air moves through the engine. Do it if you want the sound.
By the 1970s, surgical attire had largely reached its modern state: a short-sleeve V-necked shirt and drawstring pants or a short-sleeve calf-length dress, made of green cotton or cotton/polyester blend. Over this was worn a tie-back or bouffant-style cloth cap, a gauze or synthetic textile mask, a cloth or synthetic surgical gown, latex gloves and supportive closed-toe shoes. This uniform was originally known as surgical greens because of its color, but came to be called scrubs because it was worn in a scrubbed environment.
