3 quarter sports exhaust

[yellowperil]

I have a 5L and would like a little more noise. Steve (shpub) warns that sports exhaust can make if difficult to get under the 98dB track day limit - I used to have a Cerbie with a sports exhaust and can vouch for that! The straight through conversion transforms the sound of the car completely and is great if you like , the sound of American muscle cars.

The 50% or 75% exhaust conversions (rivergirl) sound like a good compromise. Does anyone have a sound file they can post?

A bit muttton mate?


Have you tried these




or considered this?





How about a mike near your exhaust wired to an amp and some decent speakers. You'd then be able to control and adjust the volume as you wished.

No no no! go for the full conversion and buy some drop in Track Day Silencers (ACT, Tower, Austec etc)
