foxhound81 0 Posted October 28, 2003 Well, It's time to replace the entire exhaust, everything after the cat to the muffler. Any suggestions on a nice sounding exhaust kit? I don't wanna sound like a damn honda, something not too loud. Don't want the neighbors thinking i'm riding my dirt bike everytime i go to work.

choumbie 0 Posted October 28, 2003 Yea...i wanted to ask the same question myself...The person i bought my Corrado from had put a freaking flowmaster truck exhaust on it....It sounds pathetic....Im looking for something that doesnt sound stock, but isnt audible from a mile away when you put your foot down...Does anyone know of any websites that allow you to listen to exhausts online?

Tattie 0 Posted October 28, 2003 Supersprint exhaust is a nice quiet uprated exhaust but if you take the intake cone out of the air filter box you get a seriously meaty noise! The cone is designed to slide out just a bit stiff Bonus about the mod is if it gets too much just put the cone back in! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Henny 0 Posted October 28, 2003 Listening to in on a pc speaker is totally different to real life. Yeah, it also depends on the soundcard you are listening to it on... Trust me, at work we spend £1000+ PER soundcard and £1000 PER SPEAKER for the production guys so that they can hear EVERY detail in their audio... :shock: I didn't think that you'd be able to hear the difference from a reasonable £300 set up very much, but BOY was I wrong... :shock: :roll: :lol: I now run a pretty damn good soundcard and Technics AA class amp + good speakers at home on my PC 'cos I've got picky as to what I listen to... :? What I'm trying to say (badly due to drink! :roll: ) is that any exhaust sound you could record is just an interpretation of what it could sound like... You'd have to match speakers, amp, microphone, car, engine, conditions etc etc etc to be able to say "this is what your exhaust will sound like..." Not many exhaust manufacturers would be able to afford to fit a system to every make of car and then record the noise they make... It's a nice thought, but pretty much impossible... :?

vr6storm 0 Posted October 29, 2003 Milltek do a good one from what ive heard fancy having a look at the group buy might be just what u need pity that whatever saving they'd make with the group buy would be lost with shipping and import costs :roll: .......though i think Milltek is available over the pond :?

choumbie 0 Posted October 29, 2003 Can anyone suggest a specific exhaust that is slightly louder than a stock muffler when you gas it...something low sounding...but when your not on the gas, is pretty quiet.....Im looking for something that doesnt make people turn around and say "What the hell is that noise" but is different than every other car out there..

Bones 0 Posted October 30, 2003 I fitted a magnex ss exhaust recently to my VR6 and the diifference to standard is hardy noticable (maybe just a bit louder) it was fitted in 15 minutes too inc taking the old one off. That was working from the floor in my garage. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JT 0 Posted October 30, 2003 i'll second that was never a fan of magnex untill i had a go in vr6 with a full magnex exhaust on it sounded lovely really throaty but not over the top just mho :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DruidicCurse 0 Posted November 1, 2003 I just added a Supersprint Exhaust a few weeks back. Its low noise and sounds really good. I am running a straight pipe out from the Cat into the backbox (muffler) itself. I removed the suitcase or turtle muffler and and am happy all the way around. If you havent opened up the air box yet, by all means do that too when you do the exhaust you will not only see some performance gains but it will sound just a little "meaner" :twisted: than it did prior.
