Which Exhaust?

[BlueFin]

I've got my DC5 on the way and already thinking of changing the exhaust.

Anybody recommend a make, or personal experiences?

I don't want to go for something too loud such as the Spoon N1 that tuners have mentioned, and wake up must of the town in the morning!

We've nearly all got different ones so can't really tell you one way or another which to choose.

Depends on how much you want to spend too.

I went for the quieter option of a Mugen Twin Loop(results can be found in this section & my sig)

Hi T66ypr about the Mugen Twin loop what does it sound like??
is it any good? From what i heard it suposed to sound like a F1 car or a high pitched motorbike. Thats the sound i like but dunno if its true, have u got any sound clips of it u can send to me?

The Mugen was the first bit of pipework I changed on the car and I have to say,the exhaust note hardly changed.Maybe a little throatier when pushing on.
Sounds great now I've done the Spoon 4:2 & 2:1 mani & de-cat and the Mugen has kept the volume down for trackdays
(though the marshalls at Castle Combe recorded a high fig for it :? )

Sorry, I havent got any sound clips

What have you got against that track Si? Just because you took the wrong turn... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Back to topic, I agree with Simon there are too many options and not enough comparisons. His Mugen is more of a stealth option and the Spoon is a bit of a CherryBomb but you pays yer money...

 

[T666YPR]

Here was me thinking Castle Combe went anti-clockwise :roll: :wink: :lol:

Cheers Simon.

what's a Cherrybomb?

what's a Cherrybomb?

The ORIGINAL tin-can-on-a-pipe exhaust. Around in the early 80s, it was VERY loud indeed - and they were universal so every boy-racer (except me) had one on their Mini/Escort/Allegro to compliment the Mag Wheels (which I DID have) and MirrorFlake paintjobs (Yes again) Feeling very old now :evil:

What's an "Allegro"? :wink: :lol: :lol:

(I can't talk,I had to run around in a Morris Ital for a while )

just put on a Mongoose (exhaust), they still believe in
the 'cherry bomb' technology, after about 30 miles your
ears would be bleeding !!!, i know, zero back pressure may
help the turbo spin but , jeez
