Which 172 Exhaust?

[Tigger]

I have a standard FF 172 and I'm just getting ideas on an ideal exhaust in the future.
I've heard of the old faithful Renault parts :clown:

I've only heard (in flesh) the K-Tech stealth on a 172 I went to look at and I thought it was really good.
Looks-wise I'd love the recessed one that they have on their site.
I don't want anything massivly loud either, just a nice "throaty" note off it

How do the 2 compare or what other ones out there are good?

Cheers
Trev

I have a K-tec stealth with a sports cat and I can't fault the quality, fit and sound.

^^^^ Same here although its at its loudest between 2.5k-3.5k wierd? most performance/aftermarkets seem to like this (on the rs clio)tho from what ive read. Im swaying towards a quiet yozza stealth after the good reports!

I've got a recessed GDI exhaust, perfect fit and sound.

Recessed K-Tec exhaust for me too. Can't fault the quality of fit and finish at all, and relatively quiet....

I do really like the look of the K-Tec is it loud at motorway speeds? I want something thats not loud when i'm driving sensible but has a nice note when I driving enthustically. Has anyone got a video of how one sounds?

this is markcup's car. he has a decat too. Mine sounded similar but i had no decat. Mines for sale now, not put a thread up yet tho. Ive gone for a cutout system now so its only done about 4,000 miles

Sounds beautiful in that video. Is it like that when driving normally though? If you PM me with price and pictures I may be interested in it.

Anyone have a video of a K-Tec recessed system on its own?

Love the look of that
Got a video or sound clip mate?

What exhaust would be best to accompany my maxogen to give a nice deep note? (not loud)

Sorry but this one is Mk1. I could not stand the farty sound of Mk2 Stealth. It was on my car only for a week and now sitting in the garage. I will pull the centre section apart, put some more sound insulation material. Too much hassle but al least I will be able to use. I have got K-tec silenced de-cat on my car as well. So Mk2 stealth + k-tec decat = loud^2. K-tec should come up with a solution to this increased level of sound.
