Coming from a scoob I get the feeling that this is the area I will be most disappointed! I like the twin pipe look and would be reluctant to ditch that for another non twin aftermarket pipe but will want my 182 to sound mint not too long after I take delivery! Is there aftermarket exhausts available already or is there another way of making it sound goo if it doesnt out of the box?

I had a Magnex system on my 172 so that was mainly exhaust note. The 182 seems very quiet in comparison but I quite like hearing the engine note more.
You could try a decent induction kit. Something like a BMC CDA, these give a really good noise. Theres a clip somewhere of Tomclio182s car with one on.
Renault Laguna Coupe
it doesnt sound that good, and an IK will fix this as Lee says.
Sure does go good though...
the noise is always there but doesnt sound that amazing, lets face it coming from a scoob its gonna be quite hard to match the flat four burble you are used to. to be honest ive never understood the sound issue with 4 cylinder engines (except the scoob of course) if you want nice noise get a TVR, no matter what you do to a four stroke inline it will either sound crap or like mr nova boys expensive addition to his crap motor ... enjoy the drive is what i say !

get a supersprint race system if and when they make one, sounds like a rally car on the 172
i have love the way the engine sounds. when @ low revs its nice and quite but when ya hit the 5-7000 rpm then it starts to sound well nice. had a few mates been like wow that sounds good when ya thrash it. so it must sound quite good.
