172 Non-Stealth exhausts?

[Cup_Phil]

I've got a K-Tec stealth exhaust at the moment with a 182 manifold and decat
I'd prefer to run something that cuts into the bumper and comes straight out for next year

Are there any off-the-shelf options? Ideally something around 2.5" outward rolled - or something subtle
Don't want twin exit or a big fat oval etc..

Also ideally something a bit quieter than what I've got as I'd prefer to hear the ITBs rather than the exhaust LOL

Pics of systems would be awesome!

Thanks

Piper recessed

Usually inwardly rolled tailpipe on the piper, but as they're made to order, an outward roll is no issue at all. available in 2.25 and 2.5 inch, so can go quieter with the smaller bore and it's a minimal restriction. Also always comes with a center silencer, and a 182 cutout trim

Sounds absolutely spot on! I'll have a hunt and see if I can find some pics

Thanks mate!

Got this one mate, You may have seen it before but im going back a lot of years lol. Sounds perfect for me, never had one issue and its been on 4 years. Powerflow from MrTyre. £300 fitted catback.

Bloody hell that is a lot of years. If forgotten you even had a clio lol
Hope your wel mate

Exhaust looks like just what I want. I'm starting to think I might just get one made

I've got a prospeed recessed system on my road car and a btb stealth on the track car. Prospeed system is excellent and not to noisy. The btb could easily have the tailpipe cut off and a straight one welded on to it so it can be recessed + it's 2.5". Not noisy or boomy in my opinion either. Just right in a stripped out Clio!
Quality of the btb is excellent as well.

 

[Cup_Phil]

That's not a bad idea. I love BTB. The build quality is amazing

 

[NorthloopCup]

Its a heavy old thing though for what it is mind. It pops and bangs with a decat though still. Lol!

Im fine mate cheers. Dont really get on forums much these days, and havnt modded a car for a long time now either

Iv never been keen on the place but ExhaustUK are good if you wanna choose the sound. As they can set it up to your choice whilst you are there.

 

[Cup_Phil]

Yeah I've had about 8 exhaust from those lads back in the day - I want something light and a bit more track orientated this time though

I had an exhaust made at HIB exhausts on the old GTi - they're in Anglesey which is a hell of a treck - but I might get one done there next year and do a track day the day after to make the trip worth it

 

[widdo]

Worth the trip if a track day is included lol. Il keep my eye out if there any meets mate and catch up with you lot again. Been a while

 

[Cup_Phil]

Yeah that'd be cool
