Dalyz Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Well after my MOT i'm considering having my exhaust coming from the front bumper, I know for a fact it will be loud but who has done this and their opinions as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ricky@Race-Tech Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 We've done it on a few cars, there suprisingly quiet to be honest. Sound a little "tractor" like but thats normal for starlets anyway.RegardsRicky Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jason_l Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Hi Dalyz,I am going for something similar in my project, obviously its not a starlet/glanza . Rather than the exhaust bending down off the turbo and under the engine it literaly comes straight off the turbo, will go along 300mm or so have one 90 degree bend and will then have a carbon bike can mounted over the gearbox. I have been told that it will be not as bad as i think it will be but won't know till its done.There are others about with front exit exhausts and they will be able to tell you exactly what its like.Jason ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jason_l Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Looks sooooo nice CAT How does it sound? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The_Notorious_C_A_T Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Thanks bud It's actually quite quiet when in the car and driving, although when not driving and giving it some revs it sounds louder.But it's quieter than my japspeed exhaust I had on before it, so really happy with it.

I have a bike can for mine so should be even more quiet i guess. Yours looks spot on! Must save so much weight from the car, and opens up the rear for a nice big carbon diffuser under the bumper Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dalyz Posted March 14, 2010 Author Share Posted March 14, 2010 That looks good man. want to get the mot sorted asap so i can do this. So it isn't that loud, I thought it would be? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The_Notorious_C_A_T Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Nah it's not that loud bud, I wasn't 100% sure if it was going to be to loud but I thought may as well see and a pleasent surprise it's not loud. Although it all depends on the box you use I suppose.Might get a vid of it sometime. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
