supersprint is 2" exit, and kam racing is 2.5" i believe..
and the supersprint is made by supersprint, and the kam racing is made by kam racing..
and i believe that is about it.. both sound very very nice and raspy

I think Kam get the exhausts made at Piper. I've been thinking about getting the Kam Racing back box as I have had 2 Piper silencers and think the build quality is great, I just want to hear one in the flesh first.

OK, so ive been looking at video's on youtube and i'm thinking on getting the SuperSprint race system but im not sure if i should get a silencer in the system.
Anyone got a silenced SuperSprint race system??? What does it sound like.
Also does the SuperSprint race system come with a cat in the system???

Our first batch was, but we went elsewhere so I could have more control in the design.

no. We have our own stainless steel centre pipe, but the supersprint is the same fitment so can be used as an alternative. We should have new stock of our centrepipes next week.

The silenced centre pipe is quite a bit quieter but still gives a great sound
There is no cat version of the supersprint currently, but I am hoping to push development of this shortly.

Our backbox and race system has a 2 1/4" tailpipe (either straight cut or outwardly rolled. Looks a bit more meaty than the supersprint.
Our backbox is a larger diameter to reduce the noise, but has a slightly better bend in to help the gasflow. The supersprint has a smaller 6" diameter backbox so is quite loud on the 16V engines at full chat.
