Yozza exhaust really loud?

[roystinho]

Hi folks

Just picked up a Trophy with a yozza on and it sounds really loud. Is that just how it is? Wasn't sure whether there was something wrong.

What other exhausts are out there that are more oem? Last time I had a T it had the original but I think it was a scorpion 192 or something that was a close match. Is that what they were called and are they still available?

Cheers

Danny

Do you have a cat?

Without the cat its stupidly loud, with the cat is perfect.

Do you have seats in it? Hard to say what it is tbh. Centre section?

 

[Dan]

Yes they are "loud" on the outside but they don't resonate like others inside the car with an interior, about 107-109DBs without the cat in place and about 98 with the cat

Stripped out is another thing though as mines stripped and it's pretty loud inside now lol

 

[MRBILLYUK]

I have one , and yeah they are quite loud , I think one of the reasons is because they don't have a centre box . As said above , with a decat it can be a bit too loud at times .

 

[Addicted]

Yea, even with the back seats down, that makes a lot of difference, if you have them removed, or even stripped, then it's gonna be loud tbh!

 

[roystinho]

No it has a cat on it and it's got interior. Maybe I just have sensitive hearing :blush:

What is out there then if I want to swap it out?

 

[MRBILLYUK]

Milltek
Scorpion RS 192
Janspeed
If you haven't got a centre box , you could probably have one fitted to your Yozza , that'll quieten it down a bit .

Is the RS 192 still the one more like oem?

 

[MRBILLYUK]

I think it is , I'm not 100% sure to be honest . I know a few people on here have them . If you do a search you'll probably get a better idea of what they are like .

@ThomasBrentnall has some nice scorpion one

 

[ThomasBrentnall]

Scorpion RS192 is really quiet!

I have this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CLIO-182-...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4d224e391f

 

[ckings6056]

My 182 has a yozza (on there when I brought it) it does put a smile on my face when the time is right as it is quite loud (cat still in, have decat but can't bring myself to fit it lol).
I keep contenplating a swap to a scorpion or something a bit quieter..

Cheers Tom

Tbh I want it to be as much like the original as possible, not too bothered about a loud exhaust. Is the 192 quieter than the standard?

Cheers

RS192 is a little bit louder than standard so will be perfect for what you want by the sounds of it

 

[roystinho]

Brilliant. That's perfect :up:

 

[leeds_182]

Bat s**t mental loud.

I kept mine for week before punting it on.

That was decatted though.

 

[leeds_182]

I've got a rs192 on mine if you want to do some kind of swap deal

 

[Dan]

The Yozza is one of the best made exhausts for 182, even though they are slightly loud it's worth having on the car just for sheer engineering in the product and the reliability purpose!

Appreciate that, but I just can't stand it tbh. For me it's too boomy. On the V6 I had a decat Janspeed which was loud when you're 'on it', but quite acceptable when not. The yozza, for me, sounds great when you're over 5k, but under its a drone for my liking

 

[Dan]

Hmm maybe look at new scorpion or the BTM exhaust then as I think scorpion have picked it up a bit with the new one and BTM is a quality product also.

 

[roystinho]

So the new scorpion is this one?

Scorpion RS192 is really quiet!

I have this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CLIO-182-SCORPION-EXHAUST-03-06-STAINLESS-CAT-BACK-RESONATED-QUIETER-NEW-DAYTONA-/331288033567?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4d224e391f

What's wrong with the 192 if you don't mind me asking? (Been out of a 1*2 for a few years so not as sharp as I used to be)

Thanks

 

[ThomasBrentnall]

Too quiet for me.

The new system is a re-design of the SRN019. The RS192 isn't owned by Scorpion

 

[roystinho]

Too quiet for me

If it's just that then I can deal with less noise, but if the build quality is shonky (which I wasn't aware of) then that would be good to know

I have got a Piper Exhaust on mine, sound really good, not too load, quite deep, and sounds really good when on it, looks good too, mind you I have a Piper induction kit as well....

I believe you can get two variants (centre box and non centre box) in the piper as well?

Here is my Yozza on my Trophy.

 

[roystinho]

Yeah mine sounds like that. Great when it's rasping in the high revs, but the low burble is just too much for me

 

[Tommo.]

I had an exhaust made by Charlie @ ProSpeed a couple of months ago, he will make it to your spec so you can choose how you want it to look and sound. Build quality is much better than the 'off the shelf' systems I've seen also.

 

[Zippyobrien]

I had a 192rs on my old trophey, with a Decat.
Was very loud, put the cat back in and wasn't to bad. s**t fitment though. Had to weld it twice

I've had a non red miltek aswell. Also loud

Got a ktec 'race ' exhaust on my current 182, with Decat and it's silly loud. Gunna weld a silencer into the Decat. It's a straight pipe though, doesn't have the stupid restrictor on the cat though

 

[Tunst]

RS192 is a good quiet system, little louder than standard when pressing on but when cruising along its nice and quiet, remove the cat and it a bit louder but again when cruising at 60-70mph is not bad..


I fitted one in mine last month as my standard system fell off, fitted a decat last week.. Undecided wether to put the car back in atm..

 

[roystinho]

Thanks for all the responses, and the pms offering to buy or swap. After speaking to a few people I might give it a week or so to see if it grows on me as most seem to think it's pretty much the best exhaust you can get. I only need to drive it once a week too so might not be too bothered... We'll see...

 

[S.Diesel]

Anyone willing to swap for the new style yozza or BTM then? A lot quiter than the original but does still sound nice!

From London btw.

 

[Gaz_]

Here is my Yozza on my Trophy.

another one that doesnt fit properly?

Ive been in a decatted 172 Cup fitted with a Yozza race system

Jesus wept. How you put up with it day to day is beyond me!

 

[MarcB]

@Gaz_

This was when i bought the car and the exhaust has been fixed for ages.

 

[Gaz_]

ahh

what was wrong with it to sit like that?

 

[Addicted]

Mounts probably dead, they don't last tbh!

 

[Gaz_]

nah it looked too far in? Saggy mounts just cause it to hang limp?

 

[MarcB]

It was to do with the fitting and the CAT.
I took the car to a friend who builds and designs exhausts and he took it all apart and fitted it all back together with new mounts and job was done.

 

[roystinho]

Yeah mine isn't fitting quite right either. Will have a fettle when I get chance to see what can be done.

As for the noise, the drone comes in at about 2k and goes at about 2.3k, so gonna live with it until spring and then decide as it'll be going to have some other work done to it then.

Thanks for the replies

When fitting these silicone exhaust sealant is your friends as it allows some flex
