Deacon 1357 Report post Posted March 10, 2017 Came across these videos on YouTube which I thought may be of use to people when deciding what they want from an exhaust in terms of sound and style and also for people who may be considering any of these specific exhausts. Part 1. This probably has my two favorites for sound in it - the HKS Legamax Sports and the Zele (although that's mostly because I just really like the Zeal car) Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 3 Tareim, will300 and Cerastes reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
will300 812 Report post Posted March 10, 2017 The Syms exhaust would be my choice out of all of those, sounds like its got the perfect volume balance. On the flip slide, that TommyKaira is insane, and the power that thing must be making Also I know I shouldn't but I really like the Trial spoiler, I'm now imagining what it'd look like blended into the boot.

Which video is the syms one on? The Tommy Kaira is a bonkers noise! And the Trial spoiler is like "would sir like some spoiler with your spoiler?" 😂 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AJ124 118 Report post Posted March 11, 2017 Thanks for posting @Deacon I have been trying to find the rough db output for a Hipower Spec L with a catless uel and high flow catted front pipe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can't find anything combined with the other parts but the spec L is 90db with carbon tips and 92 or 94db with titanium tips. I'll post up some readings with the manifold and carbon tips spec L when I've got mine fitted 👍 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tareim 343 Report post Posted March 11, 2017 do they have any info on how/why it's quieter with carbon tips? is it just a smaller diameter? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deacon 1357 Report post Posted March 11, 2017 Also, I know they have recently changed the internal design a little of the carbon tipped spec L which has dropped it from 92db to 90db. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cerastes 204 Report post Posted March 14, 2017 Nice thanks. I will be watching this all night now, more decisions/choices. Now all I need is some very handy person to translate for me Edit: Are these all catbacks or full systems? I think some must be full systems, I can't see catbacks making such a huge difference in sound? Also this is volume 2, so there is a volume 1 out there somewhere Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kodename47 446 Report post Posted March 14, 2017 Most of those are cat-back systems, unless it states otherwise (like the mufflers). The cat-back is probably the most influential towards sound as it's the majority of the system. 1 Deacon reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Church 209 Report post Posted March 14, 2017 It's not the most influential towards performance gains though, due resistive primary cat in stock header being so close to cylinders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cerastes 204 Report post Posted March 14, 2017 Thanks. I like the avo one, very loud though. Is that the same avo catback that can be found on websites here in the UK? Although just noticed fensport only do the full exhaust now. R Magic is nice too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThatGuyThere 54 Report post Posted March 15, 2017 I'll try to record my M7 Titanium before i take it off, should fit in well in this thread! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cerastes 204 Report post Posted March 16, 2017 Is the M7 loud, from what I remember is it looked similar to invidia N1 which is a loud deep noise. @will300 is yours a turbo? How is it? I am tempted by it, one of a few on my shortlist. Need to find a retailer that sells just the catback... At a reasonable price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
will300 812 Report post Posted March 17, 2017 @Cerastes no mine isn't turboed (yet) I've also got an aftermarket exhaust manifold so that changes the sound. Its good, i'd say it has a different sound to the others. Would I buy another one, no I'd go custom in future. On that note if your interested I will sell it. I got it from Fensport for around £700 I think. There is a small video here: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although I have no cats and a supercharger so that amplifies it a little It's also, about to be for sale - if anyone's interested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
