Whatever we did to it, we could not get it to color up on the exhaust, there was no smoke anywhere.

MUDAR a COR
Explanation:
> Nós tentamos de várias maneiras, mas não conseguimos mudar a cor do escapamento; (?) não havia o menor sinal de fumaça.

Uma resposta mais genérica. É necessário mais contexto para se saber porque as pessoas em questão queriam mudar a cor do escapamento (por exemplo, para que ele ficasse com aspecto de usado?)
