Ekona Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 The only thing that really annoys me is stupidity. It's why I seem grumpy around most people on here 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suits Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 All sigs are crap, regardless of whats in them. Split exhaust systems are crap. Amuse stuff is awesome. :teeth: :teeth: :teeth: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OV53 Posted August 8, 2013 Author Share Posted August 8, 2013 You may not have done anything - fitting it, but you did buy an exhaust that needs work done to it without checking it correctly first, so now you have to get it fixed and pay more money - a la doing it twice It's impossible to check something correctly based on another person's photos. It was checked correctly once unwrapped and the issue has been resolved by the vendor agreeing to pay for all fabrication costs. Now that is the do it nice part, if you want to get all pedantic up in this mother! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Perfect, top stuff on getting the sig sorted Btw, why do some sigs stay in the middle, and others on the left? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekona Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 See, that's the problem: The code doesn't centre the img on the page, only on the post text. Which is why it looks stupid, which is why I asked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooch Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 I thought it would need to be done with code but I tried using the centre button and it worked fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OV53 Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 Those Guinness adverts say that good things come to those who wait and who am I to argue? Welder dropped it off at 12 and it was fully fitted by 3. So that's an Amuse R1 Titanium cat back and Motordyne Resonated XYZ pipe now ready to add beautiful music to the air of Sunderland and the surrounding villages! Already had it out for a little test run and it is like driving a completely different car. The countless Chinamen that frequent the University on the main road next to mine also seem to give it the seal of approval! Anyway....time for some pic porn. Cheers for looking!

OV53 Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 Oh and thanks to Adrian for making this possible! Just a shame I can't afford to buy everything off your car in a oner..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLINDS122000 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Looks good So how does this exhaust sound compared to the cobra? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OV53 Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 Looks good So how does this exhaust sound compared to the cobra? Completely different sound! I went along the motorway to give her a quick burst and got followed by a new modified Impreza STI and gave her a blast right through the rev range. When we got to the roundabout he pulls up next to me and just says, "That sounds AWESOME!" My gonads are now of wealthy proportions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian@TORQEN Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I miss her already, but glad it went to a good home! Enjoy her! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLINDS122000 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Cool, what makes the amuse stand out from the other exhausts in terms of tone. The clips I've heard of it (yes exhaust clips sound better in real life) sound like the stock exhaust but a bit louder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OV53 Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 Well there's minimal noise inside the car at cruising speeds, whereas the Cobra has an unbearable drone between 2 and 2.5k revs and even when nailing it you have to open the window to get a decent idea of the immense tone it gives off. I can't really describe the noise, erm deep, burbly down low and then face melting up high..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLINDS122000 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Face melting sounds good lol Yeh I must admit the cobra does drone but I think it's something I can live with. Not sure my girlfriend likes the drone, although she did fall asleep in the car the other day so il take that as a pass! One thing I miss from the stock exhaust is that classic fluttery sound you get when you take your foot off the gas pedal, does the R1 retain that?

OV53 Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 The Cobra kinda did the same thing, I wouldn't know for sure though as mine came with the Cobra attached. The reason I got it changed was because the missus hated the drone and how obnoxiously loud it was. I'm extremely happy with the result but I mean the complete system is worth over 6 times the price of the Cobra brand new so I bloody should be!

My mate who owned it previously did everything on a budget and so it is now my quest to give the lady the treatment she deserves. The tyres are on the list of things to do next time home. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
