Tail Pipe Insert

[Ricardo]

Hi to all,

 

Is it posible to get an insert for my XSPOWER tail-pipe to reduce the exhaust note slightly, getting a few complaints from neighbours on early starts. I have seen them on larger pipes from other manufacturers but don't know if there is a universal one available?

 

I have looked on the XSPOWER website but nothing there.

 

Any info greatly appreciated.

does your tailpipe have some smal holes in it?

The XS power systems have a sort of double skin which is slightly contoured on the inside so it would be difficult to get an insert, you could make/or have one made, but my advice would be to get an Apexi ECV, but if you can't get one then there are some US makes that are practically the same, but all restrictions will also limit power so only use at low RPM off boost

Hehe, I like the idea of this.

 

Car needs to be tested before it goes on the track, no problem...while out on track, OH, did it slip back to normal OPEN position

Thanks for the info

The Apexi ECV looks like a great idea.

 

With regards to the exhaust itself your right it seems to have an internal ribbed section that would appear to cause some sort of vortex therefore creating a nice boomy sound, one the neighbours don't appreciate.

 

However they are put together well, nice welds and 316 stainless steel. Goes on relatively easy too once the old bolts have been removed.

 

Thanks for the input.

 

I'll keep you informed
