Shark Nose Cans

[tvr5000]

Has anyone experienced the Shark nose cans from TVR Power. I have CCC cans on at the minute and love the popping and banging on overrun but their looking a little tired now. I love the look of the shark nose ones but the price is offputting.
Has anyone heard them and how do they compare to the standard and CCC ones?

I spotted a pair on a Tuscan on Saturday at Chatsworth. Looked really good, but it was at low revs so I didn't hear much!

Are they £350 for a pair?

I think they're 500 plus vat so they need to be bloody good!!

Blueflame do them and they have db killers you can
add or remove as your mood takes you.

Are these things not the same as motorcycle silencers?

I think you should get some more carbon cans (£250 on ebay from CCC. I really find it hard to believe that anything other than a granade in my brain could be louder than my CC's

what’s special about the shark nose cans over the ccc is it just the colour that justifies the 500 notes are they lighter I read blue flame write up but its non informative so its just looks then?

Nooooooooo! I hope that due to the date of this thread you will not have been even able to buy these exhausts. Do not. Under any circumstances. Yes I know they look nice! I will not risk breaking posting rules, by saying anything on this forum, but if anyone is considering these I strongly suggest we engage in an email discussion first! Feel free to email me.

If anyone is after a nice set of cans - I have a pair from a Sagaris that are all stainless steel - just email me. They swap on and off a Tuscan exhaust just like CCC cans etc. In fact, the Sagaris ones are made by Blueflame for TVR and are really sharknose cans in a pure stainless finish. They sound great when pushing on, but are not so ridiculous that they are plain noisey or grate on your nerves on a long motorway drive. Guess these would be £500-600 from TVR but I am looking for half that.

It was interesting when all the Tuscan owners went to Gaydon last year. Of all the cars that arrived there first - everyone had aftermarket cans - and no two looked or sounded exactly the same.

Try running without them I'm currently minus a can due to the nearside weld failing and its incredibly noisey - If I thought I could get away with it I would not have it re-welded however its just too much for more than about an hour.
