Tell you what Jon, you'll never be fitting a cat under your wagon again, not with that drain pipe under the chassis
Sounds really good by the way Can you get any in-car footage so I can hear that wicked noise again?
My car sounds really different from the back seat there - I'll try and get some footage where the wastegate sound is more obvious, and an 'outsiders view'.. might have to borrow my bro for that one!

That sounds soo nice! The change in noise when an exhaust has been done is huge!
If your looking for a downpipe solution, share with the group if you find a good one, cos i know im wanting a 3" turbo back exhaust but need a downpipe!Ant

Thought i'd post a few pics of my new longlife exhaust
Im Very happy with the results, although there is a drone of the exhaust between 2k and 3k RPM from inside the car which i may have to sort out, but for a 3" system from the downpipe for £399 i am not complaining. The car feels alot quicker than before and is so much smoother to drive.The fabrication is very neat and tidy and the chaps at longlife certainly know what they are doing
Old tips
New ones
Heres a bit of inside Video footage :mischeif:

It looks like originally you had large single tail pipe modified to twins, could you let me if this is the case?sigpic_________

I was thinking it looked like yours Robo, but with two small pipes wedged into the 3" hole.SSComment

The chaps at longlife gave me some options on the choice of tailpipe, but i wanted to keep it looking as stock as possible as some of there suggestions of tailpipes would not have suited the car.Originally posted by robo
I think i made the right choice

Jon i get the same droning noise at the same sort of rpm what can be done to try and stop this? I was thinking of a little sound proofing.3'' Longlife Exhaust, Koni Adjustables, H&R Springs, Full RS2 Setup with Mr Nugents RS2 Chips

Same here too... wouldn't like to be sat in the back seat on a long journey! I figured that was just one of the drawbacks of a big-bore exhaust.
Jon how's the car going - has it made a big difference with that beast of a turbo you're running? I bet it will with a remap

That is the only downside. If there is any solution (soundproofing) that improves it then please let us know I am sooo tempted to get an exhaust.........
The upside is a decent exhaust really does sound chuffing marvellous on the S2
A coupe drove past me today whilst I was cleaning mine, forget what they sound like when they drive past. It is a unique warble, I was bent down cleaning wheel when I heard the sound and thought thats an S2. Walked to the front of the drive and clocked it
Sounded even better when he turned out of my road and opened the throttle down the lanes

Pretty sure it was not you Stevie......... It is a dark metalic colour, but standard.Other than a nice exhaust. Believe its a 3b........Comment

The spool up on the turbo is so much smoother and faster now that its scary. Had an encounter with a W plate scooby tailing my bumper on the way home it was the first time i put my foot down in 6th gear and i couldnt believe how quick the pick up was, The poor Sod had no chance
Bring on the Remap :mischeif:sigpicComment
