Lightest Stealth 172 Exhaust System (Cat Back)

[Habitual]

Hullo!

I've search, but can't find a definitive thread.

Does anyone know the weights of, or the lightest cat back, stealth, exhaust systems for the 172?

I hear Yozza made a really light 172 - doesn't necessarily mean they have the lightest exhaust system though does it? They're kind've obliged to use their own kit?

Any insight would be awesome,

Cheers,

Tom.

Tom...are you looking to strip the car completely? Remember that you have to live with the car day in and day out. The rear ends on the cup can get twitchy with less weight over rear axles.

I would just go with something stainless which is stealth and sounds good. The weight is lighter as only one tailpipe although there isnt much weight difference between a 172 & 182 exhaust system.

Well it certainly isn't rhe ktec stealth, that's pretty heavy.

Aren't the BTB ones ment to be light?

 

[.Stevo.C.]

Nah that's the only downside to the BTB is the they weigh quite a bit.

Heavy but sound awesome. Ktec supersports that is. Love mine

Or right.

OP got for a group N system then, they're light

That's what I am currently running, with a decat.

Cheers for the input so far... I've made some phone calls (all the below is cat back):

14/15kg - Standard
13/14kg - KTR
10/11kg - JP/Yozza
15/16kg - BTB

I didn't ask Piper as I'd already asked 100 questions before hand... >.<

Apparentley the Oreca is super light according to K-Tec, but is 78db when idle and 94db @ 4500 RPM...

I'm more or less in the market for a JP stealth exhaust then, unless any of the above is wrong...

Running a BTB... and running without the spare wheel and tools! #winning

I ran an orca group n system an it was light, back box only an decat an workmanship was great an sounded awesome but could be a tad loud at times

 

[Habitual]

Yeah, I heard they were loud...

 

[497adam]

Which is the quietist?

 

[domjolly]

Heavy but sound awesome. Ktec supersports that is. Love mine

really.......mines sounds like a wet fart until i really gun it lol

the ktec stealth supersports weighs 9.9kg according to there website

 

[Habitual]

Sales guy told me it was more like 11-12. :|

Wonder which is true.

 

[Flat Eric]

How about no exhaust? Lol

I would go for the yozza Tom.

 

[mharvey]

my prospeed stealth is pretty light

 

[Don]

my prospeed stealth is pretty light

Tom...its prospeed all the way for me. Had one on the cup and got one on the 182...subtle for pootling and makes a good noise when flooring the loud pedal. :race:

 

[davo172]

Prospeed are very good systems sound great too quality work !

 

[MartinR]

I know! and its a very non sheep one

 

[Habitual]

Interesting... I'd never heard of them until this thread!

To be honest guys, I was going to get a piper stealth from 519...

Must investigate.

 

[Flat Eric]

What do pipers sound like? Think I'm going to have to watch a YouTube video.

I would get a quote for pro speed Tom. I nearly got one for my 1.2 before. They sound awesome.

Dunno if that's how they all sound though or that's a de-cat or what? Anyway, it's the same one as the one ToastFrenzy uses. Here are his drive by vids:

[Flat Eric]

Sounds pretty decent on the drive by videos

 

[craigy2703]

How near standard is the piper ?

 

[Flat Eric]

Not near standard at all. Listen to the vids. I quite like them.

 

[craigy2703]

I think btb best then for near standard lol

 

[yeecup]

Super sprint stealth? One on eBay just now

 

[craigy2703]

thats got no center section will be even louder lol

After hearing a Piper and a Yozza Sport, back to back on Saturday, I think it has to be the Yozza! What a sound!!!

 

[Flat Eric]

Gotta be the race system too

 

[Renault Wolverhampton]

ooofffttttt waynes did sound immense on saturday!

 

[lokqust]

If someone has a quiet stealth system they can trade me with some cash they can have my Yozza race. Great around the town or out for a run but the motorway commute is . . . audible.
