    Default Anyone done GenII exhaust upgrade in Brisbane? I wanna hear it!

    Hey Brisbane-ites, I'm on the cusp of dropping around $600 on a cat back system with a Universal Magnaflow Single 3" Inlet & Dual 2.5" Out, but am concerned about noise levels. Not concerned about performance gains though.

    I've spoken to Chris at BM who hasn't kitted up for GenII yet but is looking into the Magnaflow setup for the GENII from the US.

    I'd really like to hear what the car sounds like in the flesh with anyone who has modded the exhaust on a GENII.

    Any chance I could meet up with some of you to have a listen?

    Thanks.

    Im sure I remember you saying at the dyno day that you were going to hold off on mods for a while... Now there is no stopping you... hehe.

    Yeah, I was trying to convince myself at the same time.

    After doing some short cruises with some of the GENI owners (Rino and Missy) I really enjoyed the nice tone they put out and want something similar.

    Maybe I should just new exhaust tips and be done with it.

    Get someone to take it up the street as is.
    That's what I did. I thought it sounds really good with just the DP.
    I personally wouldn't want it louder. It's misleading from inside the cabin.

    If I may weigh in on this; May I also suggest a downpipe to start? I think you will be more than happy with the results, and then you can decide whether you want to go CBE.

    Hey Brad, last time u saw my beast it didn't have a exhaust but now its a full 3" with a highflow cat. Ultimate racing definitely sounds apart. Also worth consideration for options. U'll have to hear it in person Let me know if u want to hear it. Only issue that its giving me is obviously the CEL but heck, its worth the sound haha. My neighbour is like a judge or some kind and he hasn't said nething yet (fingers crossed)

    Hey, old thread! I upgraded a while back. So Best Mufflers DP,



    2XS 200cell cat (modified to stop p2096 cells...and it's does), Custom 3inch mild steel system with 11 inch resonator, one of these Magnaflow mufflers, http://www.magnaflow.com/02product/s...e=main&id=9347 then 4 inch tips.







    Huge bark if I stomp on it, but around town it sounds like a sporty hatch back.
