Wishing my RRS sounded more like an SVR

[charliejclark]

I recently took ownership of a 2010 RRS 5.0 supercharged. (Following spells in a BMW X5 50i and Infiniti FX50). Certain aspects of the car I love but one thing I am disappointed with is the stock sound. Is this a common complaint? I am maybe being somewhat unfair but after hearing an SVR on cold start up the other day i'm dreaming of mine sounding even slightly similar with some fettling. Has anyone changed parts or all of the exhaust on the 2010 supercharged model? I have seen various videos on Youtube with silencers removed, custom straight pipes and full exhausts from people like quicksilver. Keen to get some educated advice before I decide what route to take. Thanks in advance

I don't want to piss on your fire but it's a Range Rover.

No matter how hard it tries it won't be a true sports car.

I use mine for what it was built for in the olden days. Barging in supreme comfort with a quiet V8 rumble, towing, and off roading when needed.

Fair point well made, equally I just like to hear a bit more of that V8.

I read somewhere that a 6" Cherrybomb back box makes all the difference, you will sound like a F1 car on full throttle and look like the coolest man on earth, honestly.

Love a key board warrior! 😂 Thanks for the advice

Well it's simple go to your nearest exhaust fabricator ask them to put an X-Pipe in & lose the resonators or give Quicksilver a call.

Thanks for the reply, I did assume that was going to be the best route. I was just slightly apprehensive of having someone i haven't used before hacking into my exhaust! If anyone could recommend someone in the Berkshire area that would be much appreciated.
