Original 4.7 QP exhaust vs only X-pipe changed.

[samsung7k777]

I don't want the exhaust to be too loud. I was thinking of changing the X-pipe only. I think I am going for the Larini X-pipe.


I was wondering how much louder the X-pipe is going to make. If I am not wrong, the original pipe have a muffler in it.


Can anyone give me a figure of how loud it is going to gain maybe in percentage?


Thanks Guys!

Not that much- hardly noticable

I can't imagine that when you go round the one way in Henley with the sound bouncing off the buildings in sport mode that anyone will feel that the car is too quiet!

X pipe should give you a few pops and bangs, does not increase volume substantially on its own..!!

Ask AdamN, he has a new x-pipe on a GTS...

Adam's sounds really nice..!!

It makes quite a lot of difference but the car remains thoroughly usable. Normal model is still very quiet inside the car whilst loud mode is fantastic inside and out.

This should give you some idea:

Lovely Adam, not even a screach of tyres on the last corner mate, you were taking it steady on that run..!!

I didn't have my fast head on at Brunti last year. Just couldn't quite get in the groove. Being knackered didn't help. I was far faster the year before.

Mind you, my tyres still melted but that was probably poor cornering rather than fast cornering.

We will have to teach each other a thing or two..!!
