Was parked next to a lovely AC Cobra at a car show this weekend and it had a great sound!I know it's a V8 but need to make my Tuscan sound louder.
Suggestions please.

Thanks

ACT sell louder cans.
Mines got them (not sure if ACT) and there are times when they sound epic and others when I wish there was a volume knob. Fortunately is still has a fairly quiet tick over so I don't feel a bit of a berk in high street traffic queues like I do in the Chim hehe

There are quite a few threads on this topic and the new search support identifies which are for TVR.
Here is one from this year.

Colin, before you change the rear cans, check the condition of the small back-boxes sitting just behind the diff. These sometime fail due the weight of the rear cans twisting the welds. If they look at all crusty, you can get them removed and replaced with straight-through pipes at any decent exhaust fabricator.

It'll make the exhaust sound louder and deeper.

AAS in Newcastle did mine, and with the Sagaris cans on the back, it sounds epic in full 'attack' mode, but isn't wearing on a journey like the decatted systems. A nice compromise.

Make sure the back boxes are straight through. You just need them for the hangers and the appearance. I had act polish mine...so seriously looked the part
