slew77 Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 Got rid of the OEM exhaust and put on a K1 at the weekend. Driving round with a big grin at the moment, but my neighbours hate me Here's the before and after sound: Stock: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/889611/Car/Stock.mp3 K1 Bungs In (this is the only time they will be in!): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/889611/Car/K1%20-%20Bungs%20In.mp3 K1 Bungs Out: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/889611/Car/K1%20-%20Bungs%20Out.mp3 Quote
SunGodRA Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 Mines been fitted for a couple of months now and it still makes me smile - I do get some funny looks though, when its freezing cold and I drive around with my windows open! Quote
Shaun1982 Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 Does anyone else finds bungs out & giving it beans makes the car vibrate a bit? Quote
slew77 Posted February 15, 2010 Author Posted February 15, 2010 Does anyone else finds bungs out & giving it beans makes the car vibrate a bit? Nearby cars too, judging by the car alarms I set off at bluewater on sunday Quote
SunGodRA Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 Does anyone else finds bungs out & giving it beans makes the car vibrate a bit? never used with bungs in - apart from anything I think they look a bit silly! Quote
Shaun1982 Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 I think thats the only downside of the bungs in.It still sounds just as nice & not as loud inside the car.Still ill live with it and stay bungs out Quote
YHTM Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 Just took my K1 off as I am returning my car to stock to sell. Just sounds so castrated now and I am a bungs in man! Will be putting it up for sale shortly. Quote
andlid Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 what else have you done with your car? can kinda hear it backfire a bit with the standard exhaust (puff,poff sound) Bungs in sounds loud enough for me Mine sounded like the bungs out before but could'nt hear myself think inside the car and got a bit more attention then I wanted driving around normally also around 2k it was this droning sound in the cabin... currently mine sounds fine when you 'sneak' around ... once you floor it HERE COMES THE SOUND Well done getting rid of standard exhaust I say!

The novelty factor is still there, so not got a problem with cabin noise, more focused on driving through all the car parks and tunnels I can find. Apart from that the car's pretty standard, didn't notice any backfire (will listen again later). Planning on booking it into abbey for the uprev tuning next month Quote
