Anyone implemented switchable butterfly valves on exhausts?
Discussion
Just a thought - has anyone implemented a switchable butterfly valve on their exhaust system?
This is a system to control the sound output from the exhaust system which can be automatically switched in/out or manually.
I'm thinking about looking at this sometime, but don't want to bother if someone has already implemented it or found it too tricky to do.

What are you like :PThis is a system to control the sound output from the exhaust system which can be automatically switched in/out or manually.

that need things spelt out exactly in infinite detail. As such, I've lost the art without thinking about it

I worked on a similar system for an e-type, we got as far as designing it, and making the two versions before the plug got pulled, I don;t know how much is transferrable but drop me an email if you want more details
Cheers! I'll keep that in mind.Just looking at possibilities for next year at the moment and prioritising projects

I have a set of cutouts (as that's what they're called) on my Mustang. Can adjust from 85db to 120db+ 
Remote controlled from a keyfob too. Quite a simple install really. Have a look on eBay/Youtube for 'Badlanz' cutouts. Charles (the MD) will sort you out if it's what you want.
Thanks. I'll check that out. Remote controlled from a keyfob too. Quite a simple install really. Have a look on eBay/Youtube for 'Badlanz' cutouts. Charles (the MD) will sort you out if it's what you want.

How easy (or otherwise) is it to fit this.Remote controlled from a keyfob too. Quite a simple install really. Have a look on eBay/Youtube for 'Badlanz' cutouts. Charles (the MD) will sort you out if it's what you want.
I love the noise of mine, but would also like to be able to turn the volume right down for long distance travel (the boring motorway bits) and late night use.
Does it really give you a volume control??
Several mechanical and remote options available on the market.
You need to be careful though as the replacement boxes are often too large for Tivs.
If you want an auto one that is controlled by the ECU then it becomes more tricky and probably worth just talking to Firms like Miltech etc.

If you mean Milltek, they don't do one offs unfortunately. I've been lining up a few possibilities to talk to. Will see what their thought are. Thanks.
They might not but they have a wide range of units for getting the right size box and then it's only wires!. My understanding of this issue is that most systems are too chunky for a little sports car.Gassing Station | Tamora, T350 & Sagaris | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
