how much difference

[yahooooooo]

Thinking of getting some carbon cans fitted just wondered how much difference to the sound it make?

[whitey]

loads! Get them, fit them, make noise. Lots of popping and banging on the over run and a louder harsher slightly deeper note.

Then once hooked on the noise, get it de-catted and open the gates of hell!

I have CCC cans and they are great. Always get a tingle down the spine when I fire the car up in the garage. V loud through tunnels etc and lovely popping on the overrun but at motorway cruising speeds they are not noticeably noiser in the cabin than the standard ones. Which is good if you are touring etc....

Amazing difference. The sound is superb...maybe a bit loud for track days so keep the originals just in case.
Don't hesitate....get them fitted pronto and enjoy the glorious sound.

Got mine on ebay directly from manufacturer. Good service...delivered to the door. Enjoy the noise.

Martin at the TVR Centre will sort out decat pipes for you, but I would suggest starting with the CCC cans first (get on ebay or ring them direct), before going the whole hog. Decats will not pass an MOT. Probably

Had mine recently decatted by Racing Green . Much louder now (always been on cc cans)...a little 'boomy' at 70-90 cruising speeds. But the noise under acceleration is incredible, and the pops and bangs are gggrrrreat

Go for it.

More bhp and less torque. Not much though

Thanx

So if you de-cat the car and it wont pass an MOT, how do you get it through an MOT?

[luca brazzi]

Depends. Put cats back in...there are other alternatives, but I won't mention on here.

I'll just add that I've heard Whitey's beast with the de-cat and new cans and the noise was so awesome that I think I popped a semi.

I've no idea how his neighbours haven't killed him yet though.
