Exhaust advice please.

[glrnet]

Thinking about possible new exhaust, I want a lower more bass tone than the stock version. Any opinions or advice gratefully received but want it to be MOT legal please

K2 if you dont want to be too loud. K1 if you want to sound like the devil gargling nails

[Jay]

Go onto youtube and have a listen mate

[Lexx]

Exhaust have their own HUGE section on the forum.

I suggest a search, then read the 300+ threads that all ask the same question as you.

Then take all those threads advice, and get to a local meet and have a listen to what folks have, and chose what suits you best.

As Al says the best way is to get to a meet and have a listen. Exhaust choice using youtube is very difficult.

Be interested to know what you think?

I'm beginning to think you guys are right so that's what I'm going to do, just want subtle and different but I'm thinking subtle doesn't really apply to a 350 zed exhaust mod does it!!?

you think when you hear it again you will instantly change your mind?

[Neilp]

lol i think so, it was too loud though but once it went i started to miss it and appreciate it, to be honest ive been looking at the buddy club one which looks similar

Spot the difference

 

[Neilp]

lol i may have made a false statement there, i meant the similar style ie 2 seperate cans

Yeah I knew what you meant

 

Ive never been in a Z with the K1 but I have followed a couple and they were

[mattbowey]

imo it sounds amazing going up through the gears, especially high revs, but it does get on my nerves on long runs. luckily i dont do many long runs.

Yeah it's all about personal taste, I use mine as an everyday commuter 18 miles each way on motorways so a K1 was never an option

I use mine as an everyday commuter 33miles a day and have a K1. With the bungs in it sounds lovely take them out and its too loud for commuting. My bungs are currently out but will be going back in soon, just can't get enough of the popping and banging on over run at the moment.

for a lot of people the stock exhaust would be loud!

[mattbowey]

i have never had the bungs in it lol, think i would have to if i had that kind of drive everyday.

 

when i am back at college i have to go 25 miles 2 days a week but the traffic is normally so bad the noise doesnt bother me.

[Neilp]

i never had the bungs in it either but the car was only a weekend car. i did love it, it was proper in your face loud... i had to strip the interior and pad it all to stop it vibrating as much lol
