At the minute, you can't get one anywhere. It's still in development, im taking my car as a development for the FR. I'll ask when it'll be available, I shouldn't think it'll be too long

Blueflame when they're finished. That one is cat back, a turbo back would be better.

 

[Spurt]

not very loud or is it just me?

same idea here, sounds like it is stock

A turbo back though would be expensive. The turbo is obviously mounted high up at the front of the engine. Also there is a cat right off the turbo and there are alot of issues regarding sports cats at the moment as new legislation coming in means all catalytic convertors will have to pass the same type approval regs so it means most people wont bother as development costs are going to be too high.

I think to factory cat is fine, the problems start at the flexy section after it, its too rectrictive with a narrow bore at each end. The first box is a heavy double skined straight through design leading over the rear axle to a very heavy rear box with the 2 exit pipes. Its this box that is responsible for the over silencing this car suffers from. All easily fixed with a custom 1 box exhaust starting with a large bore flexy section. Also worth wrapping exhaust hangers with large tiewraps to stiffen them. i went for a simple single pipe exit with no trim to save weight. Passes trackday noise regs too!
