Hi All,

Do you know if it is possible for a dealer to easily swap out the 350's exhaust for a 380 exhaust and install the switchable valve control etc into the cabin? Do you have any idea of price and whether it produces th same noise as in the 380?

As you are in the South East i would phone Hoffmans or Bell and Colvill - they will know the answer and price.

However if it is £1500 would you not just go 2bular - cheaper, sounds great and weighs less!
I've not heard the 2bular exhaust, but if it is similar to the Evora 400/Evige 380 exhaust then i'd be fine with that! Does using 2bular have any warranty implications?

Thanks very much for the detailed reply! Very helpful. How does the track system compare in sound to a normal 350? And how does the road system sound compare to the 380?

I currently don't have the Lotus, but have driven the Evora 400 and Exige 350. Loved the Evora 400 sound; it made it even more of an event, so would like to get similar on the 350 if/when I buy it.

Where are you in the south east?

There is a lotus meet up just outside guildford on Sunday and with the amount of cars going I would imagine someone will have the 2bular or larini systems for you to listen to.

If you want to check for sure then head over to the lotus forums and ask in the sleg regional group.
Thanks for the tip. I think we have stuff already planned for Sunday unfortunately.

Got a 2bular on my V6, it sounds similar but ever so slightly slightly different to the Evora 400 - just as loud with valves open, equally quiet with them closed. It's a little less "gargly" but every bit as good.
Thank you. Very useful to know!
