got myself a r8 v8 but its way too quite, but cant decide on the exhaust to put on. is there any local owners that have a aftermarket exhaust on there v8 that they wouldnt mind showing me.

im considering the quicksilver one but slightly worried it will be too loud. but i need somthing that is alot louder than i have.

somthing that crackles n pops on the over run would be great.

Theres a guy who parks opposite my shop every day who has a black V8 with an aftermarket exhaust. I'll ask him what make it is. I know its loud but its not obscene. Not the sort of guy you'd wanna know but i see him every day so i can find out. lol

I had a Larini exhaust on mine. It was installed when I purchased it. Wow it gave a lovely low bellowing rumble.

They sound ok a low revs. But when giving it some it's very quite.
