They are all dappled effect I believe, mine certainly is.

The rubber couplers for the air inlets to the top of the engine also look dusty, but maybe they are just dusty. Not trying to spoil your pride and joy, I just wanted you to be aware in case you have recourse to the seller (if its a dealer)
Don't worry no offence taken, its a 23 year old car so I expect things to go wrong.

However you were completely correct.....
Although in the original pics the airboxes are clear of dust, after my run to work In it today (35 miles each way) the engine bay is now white and dusty 😆
So question, does this continue and the silencer news replacing or does it just need a good blow out and it'll stop?

It won’t stop as far as I know. It’s the insulation breaking down between the inner and outer shells of the silencer.

You may now be after another bit of unicorn poo that I am trying to find. A CS exhaust.

Kline's Inconel is a good match.

Just looked at the price! Not a budget friendly solution!

The challenge for me is that I don’t want the car stupidly noisy and I don’t want drone on the motorway.

That seems to mean Capristo, Kline, or CS exhaust. First two are expensive

Apparently the Kline system in this video is the stainless version. Still sounds awesome.

Whilst the CS keeps the car OE, it does not produce the higher pitch wail of a Capristo or Kline.

Lovely looking car. Can I ask why you chose such a low milage car. 4,500 miles must be one of the lowest milage 360's around and with that sort of milage I wouldn't want to add much miles.

Rumour is incorrect, you have to modify a 430 exhaust for it to fit a 360

Another vote for the Capristo from me. In combination with 200 cell sports cats it really is a bit of theater.



I'd also vote for the Challenge alloys but appreciate it's an individual thing.

Good luck getting a CS Exhaust for a reasonable price.

One sold in the US recently https://bringatrailer.com/listing/exhaust-3/

Which Sound level is that capristo Jim?

The car I’ve picked up, has a Sound 1, which although better than stock is still quite restrained and doesn’t make the F1 wail.

I think that’s due to the exhaust config, the Sound 3 uses an x pipe

Mine is an Sound 3.

I had it fitted before collecting the car and had the original sent up to me in a box so don't really have a comparison with the standard noise but by coincidence I was out moving my original exhaust (and cats) around in the garage yesterday and both the exhaust and cats are massive and heavy compared to the replacements. It really gives a high pitched scream and I think seems in keeping with the car.

…I personnally had the silencer opened and all insulation removed… still have white powder on each runsmile

Funny enough I have the same combo as OP:

These exhausts also look very good. Apparently weighs less than 15kg.
