K-Tec Stealth Exhaust 172 Cup



  2016 Audi RS3
Are these worth the money? My standard exhaust is about to fall off, and I'm down on the south coast in a couple of weeks and strongly considering one of these.

had one delivered yesterday.

had a quick look at it, looks ok. Not fitted it yet.

its gotta be better than a standard one!

There have been numerous complaints regarding poor quality welding, and a small batch (of 10 I believe) where the centre section of the system was only tacked together!!

I'm in the same boat as you, failing exhaust but don't know what to do!

I might go and inspect one personally at K Tec, rather than having one sent, then possibly having to return it.

the dodgy ones are gone, and all systems sold now are by a new manufacturer apparently.

Welds etc on mine looked fine.
 
  RS RIP
I got one, fits nicely and hidden away. Gets a bit "boomy" after a while though. I chose the one with the silencer, glad i did because it would annoy the f**k out of you on the long run without one i think

I like it

Yours sounds amazing ive gota take my stealthed cli back 2 k-tec for a replacement again... (it rattles), well 3rd time lucky?!? I notice yozzasport dont sell that decat for ph1:eek: i'm gutted want mine 2 sound similar any ideas think mine has a lamber sensor in cat, any1 no what are my options are I NEED THAT SOUND!!

Rite ive spoken to fred @yozzasport apparently the ragonotti decat will fit ph1 whooo it's just an inch or so too short for ph1 and with a spacing flange can possibly be supplied along with raganotti decat to make a fit possible..One other thing I now need to know is it ok to fit a decat on ph1 i've a lamber sensor wired to my cat pipe, can I just unplug and secure under the car? if Ido disconnect are their any issues with warning lights or running problems I should be aware of running decat with no lamber sensor in pipe ???

K-tec sell a decat for the ph1, will this sound as gud as the ragonotti yozza decat does in conjunction with the k-tec stealth. Does anyone have k-tec stealth and k-tec decat sound/video clip they could post up pls.....

I stronly suggest you listen to one. The sound clip in the thread is of a MK1 stealth, which sound nice, but were poorly built. The MK2 stealth fits supurb (best i've come across for fitment on a 172) but sound w**k!!! Very very raspy, sounded like a wet fart. Mine lasted a week. Was too embarrased to boot it!!!

Gaz I already have mk2 stealth from k tec listenin markcup's above video/sound link he's gota yozzasport ragonotti decat+ k-tec stealth just sounds totally awsome diffrent 2 my k tec stealth/standard twin cat fart, no exactly what you mean about the sound . Thing is yozza's decat is for ph2 not ph1 which can be fitted with a flange(spacer)?? which im not 100% sure about?!?....but sounds amazing!! k-tec sell a decat which exact fit for ph1's and has the pre cat lamber unlike the ph2 post cat lamber sensor arangment. Im not sure if this would be poss ph2 decat on ph1? and will a k -tec decat sound totally diffrent 2 above cup k tec stealth exh/ yozza decat combo. I'd still would like to hear a k-tec decat+k-tec stealth mk2 to compare anyway pls anyone>

This is probably going to confuse the issue but mine is the newer one and it sounds very similar to mark's. BUT the centre section gave up after the last airfield meet. (rattling, tacked not welded apparently) The replacement middle box was a different shape.

I dissagree with the comments about wet fart, raspy sound. Mine was a little to start with but once its coked up after a 1000 or so miles it matured, I have had many positive comments about the sound. You will have to hear one, I didnt but i needed one QUICK so took a punt and im pleased with it.
Shame your a bit far from the airfield meet to come alog and listen to mine and Marks

Just had my third k tec stealth system fitted saturday morning must say new design is a massive improvement much quieter and car feels smoother to drive excellent!

Hi There

Has anybody taken the pics of this new centre section. I am from Turkey. I have got the mk2 stealth installed on my car. We got it about 6 months ago. I had not had chance of getting it installed till last week. It has been on the car for a week. It is bloody loud at the moment. Especially when it is cold lots of burbs.

Car has also got a silenced k-tec decat installed on it.

Will k-tec hear my complaints?

Regards
