ACT cherry bomb exhaust?

[Jonocole]

Has anyone heard they are about to bring this echaust system out? I am looking to change my standard exhaust on my Chim500, have looked at standard sports conversion, but what would people recommend? quite like the pops and bangs that come from some cerbs??

Yes we have a new Sports system, press release soon once we have sorted a sound file, i was never a fan of the Zero silencing "supersports" option so this will replace it, we will continue to offer the totally stand system to.

excellent,Any ideas on time scale...have heard that it will sound amazing...if fairly soon could be very interested on installing,.any idea on costs yet?

I have a Fernhurst sleeved (I think ) conversion , popping and banging like a firework factory on fire.
The hotter the weather the better. Superb !

Highly recomended !

Excellent, a week into ownership of my Griff and I'm in the market for something louder! I'll be sure to check this out...

I have ACT s/s pre-catless manifolds and Offords CHerry bombs (no idea if these are from ACT, but Offords sourced the ACT manifolds as well).

I'd put mine up against any Cerbie - pops&bangs doesn't quite do it justice - more like mortar bombs and machine gun fire, effin' loud

Only problem is don't feel I can warm up on drive for fear of upsetting neighbours - and I wouldn't want too many motorway journeys, but no better sound on a hoon!

Yep, they do sound the business!! The system will be on the ACT Pre Cat next weekend at the Growl.

I've heard some systems with full de-cat and sleeved boxes, and there is a danger that they are just too loud. Mine runs without pre-cats (modified by ACT with reverse cones) and has a fully sleeved box, but still runs with the main cat though. It doesn't get too noisy on long trips, and still sounds fruity for short blats. It sounds great in tunnels too...www.pistonheads.tv/clip940

Does the cherry-bomb insert make it noisier that a sleeved box, quieter, or just 'different'.

wot he said! No precat and sleeved exhaust. Will still pass emissions tests apparently.....

Nope - it just makes the V8 sound like god (and probably PW) intended, before the EU got involved with all things automotive

Lets be honest though, isn't half the reason for having a TVR in the first place to


The other half being for the sheer

Each and everyone to their own. And FYI I hate peacocks!! When I was small one chased me round a park!!

Matt, I guess you allready new the answer to your Question in the first place. After all you did use to inspect TVRs for people so I guess your pretty Knowledgable. So cant understand why you asked such Q, or was it just a bit of freindly trolling !!!
