172 (sold), Elise,
My new 172 has a loud and very visible twin pipe exhaust.
Going to change it for something more subtle and quieter and am considering my options. While I’m at it I might splash a little bit on performance mods but its key it doesn’t make it too noisy!
Choice 1 – Yozzasport stealth - £349.00 – and maybe enough for some decent pads. These exhaust as supposed to be v quiet and would be my first choice but a lot to spend on a ‘standard’ exhaust – nearly 10% of the value of the car!
Choice 2 – standard exhaust and decat (prob £150 total) and enough for an RS tuner. Would this be noisy? How bad is the standard backbox? Is this the best ‘power’ option?
Choice 3 – K-tech stealth (second hand) around £200 and RS tuner. Best ‘value’ package but I’m worried the k-tech might be too loud for me. I’m pretty certain that a de-cat with this would be too loud for me.
Choice 4 – no idea – anyone got any alternatives?!
BTW no driver tuition, track day etc ideas needed – already got these covered! Just looking for car stuff.
