Best sounding bacbox?
 
currently have a KamRacing full system on my 16v but its not quite the sound i was hoping for, doesnt pop or bang and it isn't half as raspy as some of the saxo's i heard round the track at FCS. what are people's opinions on the best sounding backbox (coupled with a straight through pipe)? Is the supersprint any better? a lad local to me has a standard VTR other than induction kit and it sounds immense, always pops when decellerating but im not sure what backbox it is. looks like a smaller tail pipe than the kam racing....

Supersprints sound different to Kamracing something to do with the Kam backbox being shorter than the supersprint i think.

My superpsrint is raspy with foot down and pops quite a bit, so id say try that :y:

iv just put my supersprint on yesterday and it sounds wicked, even on just a furio but now i need to get the cat off to get it's full noise which is a bit annoying !

saxsport got one on my vts sound ace :y:

Could try the Sportex 3" backbox with there "Race Tube" centre section, just the backbox on mine makes a nice pur when idling and sounds great under throttle

Supersprint 2"/Sportex 3" from my exp. (with cat/silencers)

If it's a de-cat centre pipe it should pop. Have you still got a standard mani? Saxsport all day long for me. Might be the way you drive?

KamRacing 19th August 2011 17:33

I doubt our system is the cause of the lack of pops and bangs. Its not that big a silencer!

hmmm had my heat set on one of those silencers and am now haven second thoughts, anyone else had the kam racing one and then decided it wasnt a good enough rally raspy sound and changed it???

BTB.

loved being in Finch's old saxo when he hit 7k.

To the OP. with regards to no pops or bangs, cat or standard manifold still in?

matteon 19th August 2011 17:43

saxsport or sportex 3" all the way mate

joe333 19th August 2011 17:45

youtube is your friend. Plenty of cars running our system and they pop and bang on overrun. Its a shorter backbox than the supersprint but is an 8" diameter. Its louder than the saxsport by a db or so.

nope no cat its got the kam racing tube on it also, standard mani but then i had a raceland 4-2-1 on my VTR and still didnt get any popping :(

CitroenSport 19th August 2011 18:31

piper 4-1 and supersprint straight through on my old VTR pops and bangs
and supersprint full straight through system on my VTS is mega loud/raspy and really pops/bangs lol

RyanBurrows19 19th August 2011 18:42

mines custom Exhaust UK one-off with 4-2-1 manifold sounds really nice

Gazer 19th August 2011 20:04

I got a piper 3" straight through get pops and bangs, mainly more when the engine is higher up the rev range or when exhaust is hot then does it at low revs alot :)

ChAdS 19th August 2011 20:05

They all seem to sound the same too me a part from magnex is more deeper sound.

DanT 20th August 2011 00:37

Full supersprint system Inc manifold is going to be hard to beat tbh! Well worth the money!
