What exhaust is this?

[Birdie*]

Pretty much what the title says, can anyone tell me what exhaust is on my car, it might be standard but don't think so as it was as random angles when I got the car! Can't get it to a ramp for a good pic so it's the old crawl under car iPhone pic xD cheers if you can help, Cookie for the winner?

Looks standard to me, but im far from an expert!

 

[Fred@BTM]

POS mickey mouse one from kwik fit or similar

 

[Birdie*]

Ahh that would explain why it's loud Fred! How loud is the normal renault exhaust? Going to be ditching this one as I dont like loud ones

Cheers for the help

OEM is very quiet. you dont really hear it at all

Until it rusts and falls off on the M4.

 

[Birdie*]

The stainless steel ones don't fall off do they?

The renault ones do

 

[Alexiooo]

this is definitely not a standard one... i know, because mine rusted and fell off (not on the M4, but in front of a rather busy Wetherspoons)... new standard backbox costs approx £100 off eBay, and is annoyingly silent for a "sports exhaust"... :/

 

[Birdie*]

Hmmm what exhausts are pretty much as quiet and won't fall off?

 

[Spee]

Dunno, it's been chomping on your bumper though!

 

[.Kev.]

Thats not standard,

As already said, Kwikfit, powerflow or maybe blue flame..........

 

[Birdie*]

Hmmm gay then, might go standard I want the quiet life, how long before they fall off normally?

Cheers for the help so far

 

[Alexiooo]

go for standard... it'll last you a good 50k miles before you have to worry about it again. My 172 Cup is mint and the exhaust fell off at 44k... while youre at it, check the bracket cos the rubber perished in mine... this is who i bought from, here ya go...

Dont go for standard

get a decent stealth exhaust

btb maybe for quietness?

 

[Dan29]

Decent stealth needed ASAP, before it completely eats through your bumper!

 

[j26]

that is a standard back box, i have just ordered one in for a customer the one i got is a budjet one from unipart and looks the same as the one in the photo

iirc £40inc vat

 

[Fred@BTM]

btb maybe for quietness?

heavy midly boomy quietness

 

[bmh.01]

Looks like its melted the bumper?

 

[Birdie*]

Cheers for the help Ill have a look around on YouTube for some vids for exhaust sounds. Didn't realise it had eaten my bumper too cheap shet :'-(

 

[st3ve]

Don't buy none genuine mounts btw.

 

[recaro182]

BTB would be my recommendation, but the standard one may/will be too loud for you. Ask them about the super stealth they put on a members car here, would suit you perfectly.

 

[Gandi69]

Don't buy none genuine mounts btw.

agreed. rubber in mine snapped within 1.5k miles

 

[Birdie*]

Yeah i think the mounts are alright, is there any way to tell if the centre section is still standard and that the previous owner just shoved a kwik fit backbox on it for the sound? I'm thinking if they just went kwikfit/mickey mouse that they won't have shelled out for the whole system and just put a backbox on so could only need to get a backbox and save some money.

The BTB Stealth would be perfect but thats too much money for me

 

[jinjur]

I like the note of our Ktec stealth..........

 

[montana]

just bought a timax one for 54 from a1
