V12 Vantage Exhaust note

[kbooker]

Hello

I'd like to have a listen to a V12V with a none standard exhaust or secondary cat delete pipes fitted to help me plan my next move. I'll be at Burghley so if you can help please shout up....:
Thanks
Kevin

I assume you have already pulled the fuse?

Thanks Adam, correct me if I'm wrong but I thought pulling the fuse just opened the valves at lower revs, it doesn't alter the tone or make it a little louder overall?

It does indeed just open the valves at the lower end of the rev range (I think its actually lower-mid), but you would be surprised how much it lifts the impression of the sound overall, as its the quiet section low down that tends to lead to disappointment more than when its howling on full bore.

That said if you have tried the fuse and want an even more dramatic effect in terms of volume and tone across the whole rev range then its certainly a valid way forward. If you haven't tried the fuse removal then do so, you might be quite surprised and it may save you a few quid too as its a free to install option!
