Exhaust Sound

[JamJay]

Lol well it's not the best but you can hear the popping on low revs, it's much louder at high revs and gear changes but it's impossible for me to record that alone .

Sounds very nice - Think you need to get a better quality video to capture the sound better, I KNOW how good yours will be sounding right now!

It's pretty much identical to your Chrissy but it's just difficult getting a decent video around here because of the road types and also lack of a decent video camera. The car is due a lot of work soon so I'll have a new clip up (hopefully made with my better camera) over the next 2wks. Keep an eye on my build thread .

I want that set up!

Go custom and stay away from Milltek if you want that sound

Go custom and stay away from Milltek if you want that sound

Mate, you sound (no pun intended) bitter against Milltek

 

[itfben]

change you signature to: "Stay away from Miltek" haha

I am up for a bit of custom now though, currently have a decat (no idea wot size or make) just need the rest i think.

 

[itfben]

TIts has a

3" Downpipe (Custom & heat wrapped)
2.75" Decat
2.5" Decat back with NO BOXES.
...

Its a Powerflow decat back, downpipe and decat is bespoke and very well made, brand unknown, Its not an off the shelf piece though!

...

Chrissy - PS Cost about £600 all in maybe less.

So if I already have a decat (im guessing it is at least 2.5") then I a Powerflow decat back is my next step, should this make the bigger difference?

lol no mate, i respect what they offer, but i think they over sell it and over charge for it, with regards to quality:

 

[itfben]

I see your point, but I would be taking it back if it looks like that mate, u buy it new or of someone else?

[LEE69]

The right one is wonky

 

[Toruk Makto]

Geeez, There's no pleasing some people.. lol... Nah this is just photoshop'd taken off the BMW 1M... but its the look that I would like if I decide to keep the car, but abit less wonkey donkey ofcourse

 

[Mo Arif]

looks good that

 

[itfben]

not my cup on tea however one a side would look better or a center exhaust (on its own though)

 

[itfben]

chrissy how different does your 3"-2.75"-2.5" sound in real likf to Jays 3"-3"-3"?

 

[JamJay]

chrissy who different does your 3"-2.75"-2.5" sound in real like to Jays 3"-3"-3"?

I really need to get a better sound clip TBH.

 

[Chrissy20vt]

Put it this way, Mines now 3,3,3" and sounds the same as my old setup,

Mine and Jays systems sound pretty indentical TBH..

In the long run on the standard K04 turbo, it does strain it if im honest, I put a new intercooler on last week, the pipes had more oil in than I expected, The turbo was rebuilt 5k miles ago..
