I kinda like that resonating sound too, but would love to have something aftermarket like what leeds has. What does it sound like mate?

its not the normal throbbing exhaust note, pissy little resonance Ive only noticed at 2000rpm in 5th, sounds like somethings working lose and about to fall off.

Ahh well I guess Ill end up getting a custom centre section made up at some point in the future, is it just from cat to the back box I take it?

Mate just a thought, have a look at the heat shields at the back.

are they still attached?

Ill have a look in the morning, bit dark out! Its probably always done it, its just very rare youre cruising at 2000 rpm in 5th! So never heard it before.

Just that mine had come away.

1 big washer later and it was sorted.

what do you think it will cost to swop!


If I did it now not a lot. Mine is currently worth a little less than I paid for it, however F & F isnt as much as it was so the car will be more. Plus Id add the recaros. lol

Apparently you can get £12500 if you trade in for another 182 or 225 or v6... I only paid £11900 for mine... plus you can get 0% finance now so could work a fly one to get a new car and cheaper finance and save money!

I might pop in and enquire about this, wouldnt mind seeing the what the recaros are like

I have got no regrets at having a new one put on mine - origional pipes just look ssssooooooo small now in comparison and now that ive had it on for 3 months im stone deaf so the noise dosent bother me either.
