Pig Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Im getting rid of my BL 4" when i sort my car. I cant decide which one to go with though! I want it to be as quiet as possible and to look nice and subtle on the stock rear bumper. It also needs to be large enough for a single. I have a feeling i will have to sacrifce the quiet option. If you dont mind, please put up pics of the rear of your car with different exhausts. Thanks Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeT Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Jon, i dont have pics but can highly recommend the HKS Carbon Ti. It sounds much much nicer than the nurspec ever did on my car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted September 28, 2006 Author Share Posted September 28, 2006 Any chance you can get a sound bite? How noisy is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeT Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 How does that compare to my puppy? we'll have to get Homers input as i'm sure he would have measured a BL 4" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted September 28, 2006 Author Share Posted September 28, 2006 we'll have to get Homers input as i'm sure he would have measured a BL 4" When homer went in my car (when it was twin) he said it wasnt that noisy! My main issue is to find an exhaust that doesnt look so much like a cherry bomb on the back of my car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 The BL system is very loud... Unless you're going for UBER power you could just use 4" decats and a 3" Catback as this would still give most of the benefits of 4" system (spool) without as much noise at the end... Ian C made 631 at the fly with a 3" from turbo back.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeT Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 What size is that? it looks massive 120mm tip and 94mm piping:) I would advise staying away from the nurspec as the drone will give you a head ache Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Headroom Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Thats nice and small, not sure if i like it though, is the second pic with the baffel in?? It has got the baffle in, Ive not bothered trying to get it out because its a pig of a job to get out (excuse the pun!), and being a NA its freakin loud so im told without the baffle, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeT Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 PaulE's exhaust sounds like it would suit you. Its not overly loud and a sensible size. I think it's a greddy evo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
