Stonkin Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 This is just an idea, please dont flame me! any comments welcome. I'm trying to choose a new exhaust to replace my dragger and am thinking more of a NUR. But, there is always that option of wanting something a bit different to others. On my Impreza i had an exhaust called a Vortex Afterburner... They did the design in an angled exit and also straight, i had the angled as i thought it looked better and it was supposed to give better performance due to straighter pipes. It also had spiral baffles inside the silencer to aid getting the gases out quicker. See second advert down. http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=76 This exhaust is made by Hayward & Scott. I was thinking if it would be possible to fit this to the Supra and get H & S to custom make the piping to join the end of my second decat. It souded awesome on the scooby and might be something a bit different. I've contacted H & S and they said they can do it for around 450 -500 quid. Am i losing it and should i stick with a trusted brand designed for the Supe? Christian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkey76364 Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Wy not give it a go.... If you want some thign different and if you think it will give you the sound you want then I say go for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonkin Posted July 18, 2006 Author Share Posted July 18, 2006 think i have to agree Jody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonkin Posted July 18, 2006 Author Share Posted July 18, 2006 Monkey, trouble is there is no way of hearing how it will sound without getting it done. I want something that will wake the dead, i guess a NUR will comfortably do that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JODY T Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Yeah got to think about the R&D behind the off the shelf exhausts, Gas flow etc.. I bought a Longlife custom one for a Calibra years back, it sounded horrible/raspy and actually made the car slower than the stock one... Total waste of £500.....

JODY T Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Theres probably a reason Vortex never made a Supra exhaust also... Or if they did why its unheard of..... Get a NUR £488.71 @ Mkivstore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra sam Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Get a Sup one mate, for £500 youll get a nice one thats Sup specific.. You should be able to get the nur spec for that money if you speak to one of the traders on here, I got one and fitted it a few weeks ago you won't be disappointed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b_have Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 One of my future projects is to make a dual exit exhaust exiting above the wheelarches. Similar position as F430 air intakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
