Shouldn't all Evoras sound like this?

Okay okay, I've not heard a standard Evora going for it in real life, let alone the new 2012 version. But as far as youtube videos go, I'd love for all Evoras to sound more like this than a hair dryer. Even beats the GTE sound imo.


What do you guys think?

Sounds great!

[justin220]

How much is it?

[alex_gray255]

Hmm, best I could find on it which is not much...

Would be interesting to track down some more info as that has to be one of the best sounding exhaust options for the Evora I've seen.

[alex_gray255]

Okay, I've emailed them to see which system they would best recommend for an Evora and will then take it from there.

Anyone else interested in the info? I'll look into sourcing it in the UK if possible, but I suspect it will be an import job.

Alex, get a group buy on the go!

My mate danny's evora beat's that hands down for noise.

He had a custom straight through pipe fitted from the downpipe collectors. Removing essentially the entire exhaust system from the car.

Absolutely awesome sound and still more than quite enough to take and recieve phone calls via the cars alpine.

Best part....... Cost..£170.!!!.

All you need is a custom exhaust maker and i guarantee you won't ever look back at the stock, weedy sounding exhaust.
Why spend hundred's..????.
Just my 2p worth.

[alex_gray255]

Got any examples of the sound of it? Obvious question I know

Standard Lotus sports exhaust is almost as mousey as the stock system. I like quiet, but the current system is taking the mick a bit

I can chat with them next week about a group buy if anyone is interested? However, to give me some numbers to play with - put yourselves down if you're interested.

Very throaty sound...would be interested in the cost. Had a stage 2 on my Elise S2 which sounded awesome but was a little too loud on the motorway....wonder if this one would be like that?

[alex_gray255]

No word from these guys yet. So, I'll follow up next week if I have some spare time.

Hi guys, i am 'his mate Danny'!

The Evora sound he is referring to is just 'awesome'. The sound created throught this custom exhaust makes the noise more engine note than just exhaust and for very little money. There is also no loss of power!! Sounds very like a Lambo.

If you have an 'i' phone i can forward you a little sound via MMS so PM me if you would like to hear it.

Really guys the sound created especially on the road begs belief!!!

[justin220]

Can you post it on YouTube?

[Baldy FF]

Posted now on You tube - 'Awesome Lotus Evora'

[alex_gray255]

Can you post the link as well?

There are a number of "Awesome Lotus Evora" vids and none of them are recent :/

Thanks!

All I have added is the Radium cold air intake and the Lotus factory sports exhaust. I have a bunch of vids on my channel.

Sounds great. I've got the sports exhaust and have just ordered a K&N filter, not sure it will sound as good though. How do you find the Radium? Worth the £?

I'm very close behind you Woza, only had the car two weeks and looking at Sports Exhausts and Air Filter Systems already! Maybe we should team up and buy together for a discount?! I was going to give you a buzz actually as I'd quite like to hear the sports exhaust before I throw red bits of paper with the queens head on at the dealer!

ETA: I have no intention of causing the Queen any harm and was referring to £50 notes!

The Radium transforms the car completely and makes it sound like a baby Lambo too

Highly recommended.
