Exhaust for 2001 NB

Postby CoachOz » Mon Aug 15, 2011 8:57 pm

I've recently bought a series 2 NB and am underwhelmed by the exhaust tone. Any suggestions for a system that sounds good without droning or resonance would be appreciated.

Gday mate.

If you add your location to your profile, and add what model and the mods to to your signature it will help a LOT.

So, where are you from?

The SMB / SP Motorsports exhaust sounds very nice, tiny bit of drone at 1500RPM but you obviously don't spend much time there.

Pretty much inaudible with no load on a neutral throttle too, which is good if you don't want to draw attention to yourself...

I felt the same and I now have the full system from Mania which I really like. I don't get any drone...probably all drowned out by road noise since my car isn't insulated...

Another for SMB, but with the unresonated mid pipe.
