Hi all,

As you may see I am a new boy to Piston Heads, but have read many messages and it appears to be very good!

I have a Maserati 3200GT and am looking to put a sports exhaust on it. I have spoken to Rosso Corsa who has a choice of two but other than that I have no knowledge of them.

Anyone got any experience with them. Needs to be legal for MOT as well.

Thanks
Rob

Rob,

Welcome.

I've just had a Tubi fitted to my 3200 by Scuderia Systems in Egham. Having had my car for nearly 3 years before the Tubi was fitted, it honestly feels like I have a new car. Speak to Manu at SS - he is incredibly helpful and will give you all the advice you need.

See the "3200 Sacrilege?" post by me for more feedback...

Hi Nick,

Thanks for the reply. I looked at "3200 Sacrilege?" and am looking forward to putting this on! I spoke with Scuderia Systems yesterday (as Rosso Corsa failed to return my call yet again!) and they seem pretty good. When did you get yours fitted?

Do you consider it to make a noticeable difference to the voice of the car / driving?

They are not cheap - did you manage to negotiate a preferred price?

Regards,
Rob

The price I paid was the standard amoun they quoted you. The exhaust was fitted last Friday and has completely changed the character of the car, but for the good. It now has a voice befitting of its looks, engine and pedigree.

Trust me, you will not be disappointed. The wav files do not do the true noise justice. After all SS do (I recall) offer you your money back if you're not happy.

You only live once!!

Ok, I collected the 3200 on Saturday from Scuderia Systems in Egham after having the TUBI fitted and what a huge difference in noise!

At idle it really is pretty loud and gargles like a true V8 and through the gears if being driven hard it sounds fantastic with the occasional "splutter" if accelerating and decelerating in the same gear.

Surprising improvement between gear changes, they blend in more efficiently now.

Only downfall is when driving through quiet little villages and being heard half a mile off - not to sure how many appreciate that!
