KrisC2 Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 (edited) I tried the short tails, they were 119.9db at 4,750rpm! I actually think they were a lot louder than this on the go. One run and I took them off. Edited March 7, 2014 by KrisC2 Quote
ross27 Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Are you guys just using a db meter on your phones or a proper device? Id like to try it on mine and see what this exhaust is!!! Quote

Ekona Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 Are you guys just using a db meter on your phones or a proper device? Id like to try it on mine and see what this exhaust is!!! Proper dB meter with the correct weighting (A, isn't it?), at 0.5M and 45deg from tip at 3/4 max RPM. Quote
KrisC2 Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 Mine was done with a proper db meter on a tripod set to exhaust height and measured 500mm from centre/45 degree from exhausts and 3/4 throttle ........ 119.9 db! Quote
gstraw Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Any video of the car outside? Like having the phone facing the exhaust and giving some revs? Trying to see what this exhaust would compare to Quote
hype Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 I have got a video but its very poor quality as trying to drive and film proved difficult so sorry for the poor quality and stopping and starting haha http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jcx_k1p91Ug What happened to the video mate? It says removed by user. Am considering these myself and would be intrigued to hear it... Quote
mikeyb Posted April 14, 2014 Author Posted April 14, 2014 Hi All, Here is a New Video - Also a Picture so you can see what they look like - Quote
chubbster Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 (edited) Thanks for the latest video. I'm interested in these, but need to know one thing... Will they cause any emissions issues when it comes to MOT time? I know it's the cats that remove the nasty particles, but does the muffler material in the back box play any part in reducing emissions too? If so, might these pipes cause the car to fail on emissions? ...or even on the sound level? Sorry about the questions, but I'm ignorant on these things and I know there's a lot of knowledge on this forum. Edited April 14, 2014 by chubbster Quote
370Ad Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 Won't have any problems on emissions mate. If you go to a very picky mot place yes I imagine they would fail the car due to the noise. Most independent places would be fine though. 1 Quote

Cake Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 Chubbster the back box plays no part in emissions and will therefore not cause the MOT to fail Also no sound level requirements in the UK so no issue there, run just cats if you like Quote

ECG1000 Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 This is awesome. Pretty much sold on the idea. Spoke to Cybox today about what tip options they have. Are these the "tapered" option? Quote

ECG1000 Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 Just ordered a pair of these direct from Cybox. Bit of a saving from eBay! 😜 Quote
Twallis Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 Hi, is anyone still running these? If you haven't seen in one of my recent posts, I have a pair of Cybox short tails but seeing lots of mixed reviews. I know I can always get them taken off but I don't necessarily have the time to put the car in a garage. Quote
