Non-boomy Clio 182 exhuast help [pwease]

[Munson]

Yes I have done some searching but would like some specific opinions. So, if you're about to suggest the search, get out of my thread and go f**k yourself

The exhaust on my shed is all set to fall off. The back boxes are rattling, the LH pipe has dropped, and it's boomy on the motorway. Driving back through Belgium yesterday, it was doing my f**king swede in.

So anyway, obviously I need a new one (cat-back). I don't like the boomy 'look how powerful my car isn't' effect. I'd prefer a fruity, raspy metalic note that comes alive at high revs but isn't boomy on the motorway or over run. Any thoughts from like minded people? Also I presume I may as well order a new set of mounts/hangers? I'd probably fit it myself or get my local tyre place to do it but, stock is important, as replacing it is urgent. Whatever I get, I need to order it today from somewhere with stock. Budget isn't a major concern.

Any and all suggestions welcome and invited.

Danke.

Janspeed. Rasp a plenty. I had a Trophy with one on and it sounded lush!

I thought the yozza was more raspy than boomy although quite loud.

I love the milltek sound tbh.

Yeah the yozza is very raspy but imo if he want's a quiet exhaust it''s defo a no no lol

 

[Munson]

Milltek = boomy?

Good call. Youtube agrees with you.

 

[Sheila’s’ Wheels’]

Although to be fair that had a decat and a remap so I'm sure it would be even quieter on yours.

 

[bmh.01]

The janspeed with a cat in is very quiet imo, so that might be what you're looking for.

 

[Munson]

They also do a 'super sport' that has no centre box and is cheaper. I'm thinking the one with the centre box is the best bet. I don't really want loud noise, just a good one when I am on it. How much is the standard Renault system? Probably more.

 

[Kerryclio]

My mate has a Miltek one and its not very loud

 

[SBV116]

Janspeed imo, leave the cat in, my experience of milltek is they are a very poor fit, although nice sounding!!

 

[Kris86]

miltek. lovely fit on mine and not boomy at all..and certainly sounds oem when not giving it some.

 

[SBV116]

Well, we have fit several, and seen more! and none have been a good experience!! lol.

 

[Munson]

I take it all these systems hang from the standard hangers? (which are also fucked)

 

[Sash]

I quite like the RS192 scorpion zorst that's on mine nice sound not too loud either. My 2 pence wurth.

 

[Aluco]

scorpion 192

 

[Jonny1*2]

BTB, bit more pricey, but lovely notes out of it. Best looking at fit also :approve:

 

[ClioChloe.]

I remember seeing a Jetex one that was just about the right loudness

 

[Aluco]

scorpion 192

Plus there is a group buy starting.

 

[riz]

YOzzasport has the best rasp. It isnt too boomy but it is quite loud!!

Piper is the most "grown up" system for a 182

 

[H182]

I've been thinking the same, and listened to Darren S's Janspeed last week. He got the normal janspeed, not the quiet one, but its still quiet enough and sounds nice imo.

Going to be ordering one in a couple of weeks.

 

[Munson]

Cheers for all your input. I'm all set to order the Janspeed 'super sport' (non-centre silenced) and a full set of mounts. I just need to definitely decide between the two versions. Could swing either way at the moment. I guess at least the non-silenced is cheaper

I have a piper system on my 172,very impressed with it I have to say but they don't seem popular at all on here :dapprove:

the piper 172 system is louder than the 182 one by some margin. They're excellent quality Systems but not so well known on clios, so they're vastly overlooked. I'll be getting one when i manage to find a ph1

 

[DrR]

My magnex is same as standard prettymuch.

 

[Munson]

Well. I ordered the Janspeed without centre silencer. Can't wait to get it now, although I don't expect to see it this week. I'll update the thread with my thoughts, in the interests of future searches.

Thanks for all the input.

 

[Sheila’s’ Wheels’]

So you only have one silencer??

I'm a bit confuzzled as to what you've ordered mate.

 

[Munson]

Janspeed super sport from k-tec. No centre section silencer.

 

[Sheila’s’ Wheels’]

So does that mean you've ordered a rear box on its own?

Or does it mean you ordered a full cat-back system but with no centre section??

(I'm genuinely interested btw!!)

 

[Munson]

FFS

Full cat-back system, with a straight through centre section. Rocket science?

[Sheila’s’ Wheels’]

You are not clear enough, dumbass!

I was unaware you could spec them like that. I need a system for the mk1 and the centre section you have ordered sounds perfect! Cheers mate.

Ha ha. Fair play. Although I did kind of explain it in the thread IMO.

It was a tough call TBH. Some say the standard one is almost OEM, noise wise, but I still want it to sound really nice when gunning it. I'm hoping the version I ordered is also not boomy on the motorway. In which case I think it'll be the ideal compromise

Yeah they are pretty throaty, the silenced decat made little or no difference though :S

Good choice on system Roy - let us know your thoughts once fitted!

 

[Sheila’s’ Wheels’]

I didn't read the entire thread. I don't find you that interesting if i'm being completely honest.

I've had a Trophy with a Janspeed and a decat and It sounded lovely! Really impressed with it. Milltek/Ktec/powerflow etc are all just too boomy for me. 70mph and I can't hear the voices in my head!

I like the cut of your jib.

Updates will follow.

 

[Sheila’s’ Wheels’]

I am too dumb to understand what you are saying to me.

 

[Munson]

Oh well. We can't all be awesome.

Hi5.
