Well I've just fitted my new sports exhaust from TVR Car parts ( im not sure which make it is ) on the T350, and boy what a difference, pops and bangs - fantastic build up of noise as you pick up the revs and that fantastic deep rumble at low revs, only took about an hour to fit and looks great. Going to be some miles on the clock this weekend!

No.

Only on Saxos. Gives them another 50hp easy.

How true, seen a Corsa (with the 1.2 badge still on the back, or was that deliberate, a stealth car!! , nah, not with tyres the same width as a perambulator!), and I swear I could hardly keep up...........well.......I was parked at the time!

regarding these exhausts, it has been suggested that they can perhaps slightly lower the BHP from standard! I'd love to know a definitive answer to this!

I hope its not LESS power But if it has less BHP the noise certainly makes up for it

Apparently the Tam has the optimum exhaust length for the 3.6 S6 engine?

I had a super sports exhaust fitted by TVR Power recently - fabulous sound! TVR Power told me it did not increase BHP, but it did add an extra 5% to the insurance premium as the exhaust note increases the risk of theft (according to the insurers!). Still, for around £25 I can live with that!
