stainless steel exhaust
Discussion
hi all
can someone let me know what exhaust options we have for the S series V6
at the moment my exhaust is s/steel i think its an original system ?
i would like at some point to increase bhp and a few more pops and bangs if poss which i had from my tamora
are there systems out there that will do this and whats the approx cost
cheers keith

I also have TVR car parts exhaust and also love the sound. Make sure you ask them to fit a skid plate under the 'silencer' so that it slides over speed bumps. Norman could probably post a pic to show you what I mean.
The central mounting points for the exhaust seem common to all cars, however the single point near the back does vary in its location. If you are planning to have a garage fit the exhaust - no problem they can move the bracket on the exhaust. If you are going to do it yourself make sure you know where the mounting point is (inless you can weld) - mine attaches to the chassis before the diff some other cars have the mount on the fuel tank cradle.

very nice sound norman ! i already have a s/s exhaust would you say it would be worth changing
to a sports system like yours ?
does anyone have a secondhand sports exhaust for sale , please please
Hi Keith, Normans exhaust does indeed sound nice. On the V6 cars I`ve seen many different exhausts giving many different sounds. I had a stainless sports exhaust and it didn`t do much for the performance or sound until it was modified. The exhaust had two silencers, the front silencer was removed completely and the second silencer was opened and some of the wadding/muffling material removed. It does pop and bang but the engine has to be at running temperature for it to happen. The car now has a very distinct sound http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNYFANBjYUQ&fea...to a sports system like yours ?

hi steve j and gerald tvr
have you any pics of your exhaust systems ?
i have been talking to various custom exhaust makers who can make and fit a s/s exhaust
system for me at a reasonable price and this can be as loud as i want it to be lol
i need some help on the design for the size of the back box section as i want to get a good sound rumble etc
without it being to loud and needing ear plugs
if anyone can give me suggestions and any advice on design to build a nice sound
cheers keith

Hello Keith, I`ll get under the car in the next few days and get a photo and also from the back, as the tailpipes are non standard and need baffles to keep the noise down to a dull roar.have you any pics of your exhaust systems ?

Enjoy these vids.
I'm hoping I never have to replace the stainless system on my car. Absolutely brilliant noise for an S2, when glancing through the history when I bought the car, spotted an invoice from a few years back for just over £1000 for a fully custom made stainless system...!!!
Don't know who the previous owner was, but I hope he doesn't read this thread.
Note to self: take care over speed bumps!!
