[robo]

Hi lads
Just need some advise about this very noisy exhaust b4 I will call long life again.
Some of you have this separate waste gate pipe do you find it
TOOOO LOOOUUDD? cos I don’t floor the car any more it gets extremely loud, it’s so embarrassing loud .
Is there some sort of silencer I can fix on wg pipe or do I get it back on to down pipe?
I don’t think I can get use to this sound , it’s like there is no exhaust at all.
Please help.
thx

I have already said elsewhere that I think mine is way too noisy and when I finish fecking around with my engine and DP later this year after making some more changes, I will definately be putting a small silencer on it. For such a small pipe it is suprisingly noisy and can be heard from a long way off.

Funny I thought yours would not be as loud - based on your EM being the same as Doug's which doesn't sound too bad, and easier to live with

Tom I would not mind the sound if the power was there (like 450bhp) with me there is load of bang but no tyre smoke, I feel like driving punto with big dustbin sticking out of me a£se.

how many db is it? did a sound check on mine at castle coomb at it read 104db from 1meter @4000rpm out of a 3"system with a single 12"x8" box spliting into to two pipes (one either side) into 4" exits, my neigbours hate me and the feds hear me 3miles away, "(skish) serra oska receeving we can hear the suspect but can't actually see him over(skish)"

I never had it measured but I don’t think is as loud as yours, it really gets noisy under heavy acceleration.

mines a pain in the **** on the motorway, but as im still young and stupid :mischeif: then it will probably stay stupidly loud untill im all grown up and sensable

The wastegate pipe doesnt make any nose until the wastegate opens under boost. So you wont hear it doing a sound test.
