What exhaust?

[chrishimself]

Afternoon all smileys/smiley9.gif
This may sound weird, but has any ever heard a subaru exhaust? It sounds sweet as, does any one know what sort they are? Or is this just a stupid question?
Ta very much chris.

[wideboy]

its not really the exhaust - its the engine

[chrishimself]

That what i thought, but was not sure.

[saxo_2004]

my exhaust is the spitting sound of a subaru i had it custom made heres a pic my car does honestly sound like a scooby.

5 1/2 jap style exhaust system stainless steel made by powerflow.

about £280

[chrishimself]

Sweet, how would i go about getting one?

[wideboy]

sumhow i doubt it sounds anything like the deep rumble of an impreza

specialy not from a 1.1 block

hahahahahahahahahahahaha, i've never heard anything so ridiculous.
like joe says, a subaru impreza turbo makes the noise it does because it has a flat 4 'boxer' engine as opposed to the 'normal' in-line 4 cylinder found on the saxo. you want that noise then i'm affraid the best way is to buy a subaru.

powerflow custom exhausts smileys/fcuk.gif usually found on a chavvy car that sounds like its airborne then you see the car crawl past you lol

i'm with sean you want the sound of a scooby go buy one if you want an exhaust that sounds good on a saxo get a magnex or a scorpion suzuka pipe and de-cat it

lmao! sax-p quote of the day, and soooo true. smileys/smiley4.gif

[wideboy]

most of the ones iv heard sound like wet farts

and also airbourne! lol

[gafvts]

dont agree with u there,i think the powerflow systems sound great

[pure_sax]

if u want something that sounds like a scooby y dont u just buy a scooby instead, then ull have the right sound uve always wanted

[Jordan]

The rumbling noise that an impreza makes its actually produced by the manifold.

Either which way, your saxo is not gonna ever sound like an impreza and even if it did, would you REALLY want it to???

[Dino209]

i think powerflows are awesome

[AdamW]

Sax-P Bandwagon passing through.....

Fuck me, Everything is "CHAV" these days..

GafVts- I agree with you, Powerflow systems are very good!!!

[stuartQPR1]

I think powerflow are good quality exhausts, spose its all about preference really in terms of how it sounds and theres plenty of tailpipe designs to choose from. If you want your saxo to sound like a sports car thats up to you!!

i wasnt jumpimg on the bandwagon though mate i've had a powerflow exhaust on my saxo i hated it the quality was shite n it sounded crap would rather have a magnex any day

don't talk pish. as explained before, the noise is due to the layout of the engine. certainly has fuck-all to do with the manifold smileys/smiley24.gif

[Scott]

sean it actually is to do with the manifold apparently, this was hotly debated on ssc a little while ago and apparently its become one "tube" on the manifold is extremely short compared to the others, apparently once and after market manifold is fitted then the burble is lost.

well at least thats the story im not committing either waysmileys/smiley17.gif

[G187]

dam, so basically if someone came out with a new manifold for a saxo with it being a similar design to the scooby's u saying it would sound abit like a scooby, that would b heavy!!

[Sean]

if proven scott, i'll take back everything i said smileys/smiley17.gif but i've always been led to believe(from more than one source) that it's due to the flat 4 boxer engine . the old porsche 911's have a flat 6 and make a similar noise? smileys/smiley4.gif

[wideboy]

and so does a db9, but that isnt the debate

[edit] damn 56k is too slow - that was aimed at the other dude mate

as i say matey im not batting either way i always thought it was the design of the engine but a few said it was manifold, few said engine, i shrugged and said rice wagon smileys/smiley17.gifsmileys/smiley17.gifsmileys/smiley17.gif

joe- it's cool mate, i'd guessed smileys/smiley2.gif

[wideboy]

thats got my vote as quote of the day

[SteVTR]

thats got my vote as quote of the day




i'll second that like two quotes of the day in the same post smileys/smiley4.gif

[saxo_2004]

they have widen the pipes to a saxo vts which increases the air intake and yeah teh car makes a rumbling noise when ticking over and being reved.

[jimmy16v]

powerflow systems r all about the customer, if you want it loud n boomy thats what ul get. if you want it quiet, you get that. i think its good that the customer can choose, at the end of the day, its your own car n need to be happy with it! ive had powerflows n was very happy, got a full magnex on my vts n am also very happy with that, personal choice at the end of the day people

[chrishimself]

LOL, did not think my "stupid" question would cause such a fuss smileys/smiley9.gif
