1.2 16v Power! (vids of sports cat and stealth)

[Middo]

Couple of vids of the 1.2 just got a viper induction kit, stealth system and sports cat on the modification front. Thought i'd take a couple of vids as the girlfriends just had a 3250 and we were trying it out also i know theres a few people on here considering getting one and wanting to know how it sounds. Vids are shite resolution however due to the expanded screen but u get the idea

[Middo]

first vid sounds like a fart in a biscuit tin!

i'm not gonna ask you how your found out what that sounded like

 

[tommyboy]

1.2's rock!!! while u cant insure a 182......

 

[Ali]

Sounds like a strimmer on Steroids. lol

 

[Middo]

sewing machine, get it right

 

[Graham Gooch]

sounds poop LOL!

 

[Middo]

your talking poop

anyone whos heard this system in real life will vouch for how nice it sounds, the video was purley to give people an idea and was taken on a crappy mobile camera, with a crap microsphone. If you've got nothing constructive to say dont bother

 

[Graham Gooch]

ill say what i want tbh its a free country, dont post up movies etc if you cant take both sides of the argument

would you prefer if I said oooh sounds lushh innit lol

 

[Middo]

no i'd prefer you to say something more constructive than 'that sounds poop' the videos were posted as a lot of people have been asking what it sounds like as they were considering that system. If you wanna hear it in real life and rejudge your free to come and see me at FCS, then i'll take your opinon on board. I said the video was s**t quality, hence the sound isnt perfect.

 

[Dink]

sports cats rule!

 

[Middo]

^ have you got one on yours dink? i found mine made a big difference to performance (what little i have lol), and gave a really nice raspy pop to the exhaust

 

[Alan]

Smart matey....

 

[Dink]

yeah got a 100 cell one fitted by prospeed with a nice cat back

 

[Middo]

i think mines a 200 cpsi because i wanted to keep a bit more torque, i was gonna for a 100 but both prospeed and powerflow said i'd loose to much torque and it'd be more fun to drive with the 200 (obviously thats with a 1.2 not a 1.6 lol). I've had it rolling roaded and the torque curve was perfect. Has has put a decat on his and said there was no power until peak so sports cats def the way to go

 

[kully]

sounds cool , will get a closer on sunday m8 ....

 

[Middo]

yeah defo^ wanna have a good nose round your motor too no racing me down the M6 though lol

 

[medici999]

what backbox is on that?

 

[vavazoom]

fuks sake shame they dnt do these kinda bits for 1.4 8v's!

 

[medici999]

how much are these to buy? i want one!!

 

[Englebert]

your talking poop

It does sound s**t though...whether it's the video or not. Why post the video if you're not going to bother with getting anything that will actually reflect the noise the car makes, therefore defeating the object of the thread?

Frankly it sounds like a fat bloke playing a kazoo. My 1.2 sounded good though so there's no doubt with the right exhaust that a 1.2 owner can't be proud...

Did you buy the sports cat from powerflow? if so how much did it cost. I'm going to be getting a system from there soon so might get a sport cat also...

 

[ollie]

sounds good ! ! !

the video was taken after it was fitted, and after 10,000 miles lost a lot of its raspyness. I loved the sound of it personally

I purely posted the video because everyone was pm'ing me asking for one, so it was purely to shut them up

 

[Millsy]

whats happened to your 172 mate? i have obviously missed something somewhere, i knew you crashed it etc but where is it now?
