Saxsport vs kamracing
Currently got a 3" saxsport on my car, is it worth getting a kamracing system and do they sound any better?? It's a vtr and will be 16v soon enough, any particular gains to be had from switching? Thanks

you will gain about 1 bhp The Supersprint fitment is perfect and a better quality but the Saxsport is good for the price.

Not really worth the money to buy another one outright, though if someone wants to do a swap, your call, both good systems.

Exhaust sound is also different between 8v and 16v.
As I found out after we did my 16v conversion.

Does the KR System sound any better or any louder than the saxsport, the saxsport is raspy about 3.5k rpm onwards but my mate has the 2" supersprint/kam racing system on his gti quicksilver and it sounds the nuts

The only thing different between the saxo supersprint and the 106 supersprint systems are the backbox. The VTR should should pretty much the same as the Quiksilver. We've had a few different changes to the design on the backboxes over the years so not all will sound alike but near enough
