fergie1471 Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Iv just got a scorpion back box fitted but its alot quieter than I thought it would be and want. will a Y piece make it much louder or have I just bought the wrong back box? Quote
Neilp Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Y pipe won't make a different. Scorpion isn't a loud exhaust, it does settle over time though. Decats are about the only way to make it louder Quote
fergie1471 Posted May 19, 2015 Author Posted May 19, 2015 Will this cause me any issues though? Sensors or anything? Quote
Bodyboarder81 Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Will this cause me any issues though? Sensors or anything? Yes possibly but more to the point it will sound rubbish . ....... I know I ran a scorpion with HFC and it was very raspy / chavy 1 Quote
Neilp Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 I ran a scorpion with decats and it did sound very metallic like, almost BMW m3 type of noise. Quote
biggzi Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 A little off topic but I have a japspeed k2 and japspeed y pipe and it sounds looooooovely! Quote
fergie1471 Posted May 21, 2015 Author Posted May 21, 2015 I do like that its fairly quiet at motorway speeds (no drone etc) and when you first set off it sounds good but then at higher speeds you cant really notice it for the wind/road noise. Probably for the best for day to day driving Quote
brillomaster Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 swap it for a cobra resonated - no drone on motorways, but opens up to a lovely note above 3000 rpm. Quote
AliveBoy Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 couldn't you get the centre box chopped out? It wouldn't be more than £70 I'd say and would release a bit more noise without it being ridiculous? Quote
Bodyboarder81 Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 Scorpions don't have a mid box from memory . 1 Quote
