My car is at MMC shortly, thinking of having a sports exhaust system fitted whilst shes there! Having previously owned Caterhams & TVRs the car has always been a little muted for my taste. blush Does it change the note by much?

Thanks
Matt

My car has the Librand's Sport Exhaust (quad pipe) and it sounds wonderful. I personally believe that it is a massive improvement over the stock rear exhaust system.

Perhaps MMC will have an Aero in the factory that has the Sports Exhaust fitted, if so, they can let you listen to it and make your own mind up.

I don't have access to my car at the moment but I'll take a video clip for you, if it will help? (However, it may take a few weeks...)

No no no no no. Dont listen to the 'cat in a hat' - get side pipes smile

Quieter when pootling; louder (baked bean can according to my feline friend) and more exciting (pops and snarls) when pushed.

You need to try the two side by side. You are welcome to listen to mine anytime.

Nono no! they are both wrong!

The 'standard' Morgan sports exhaust (2 pipes rear exit) is the one to get! Much deeper bassier note than the sidepipes.

Sidepipes do look very cool though .....

I did hear some Aeros on full song tearing round Goodwood Circuit, they sounded great. thumbs It was back in June 2005, picture from the day.




Ever find it to intrusive in the cabin? scared

Love the look of side pipes, love can you retro fit to an S1?

Mr Tony do you mean 4 pipes in total? MMC didnt give me any options, so Im guessing they quoted for there standard sports?! confused2

Matt,

Do listen to Boshly the Great, he knows his onions when it comes to exhausts. grin2

If you do decide not to go for side-pipes, then make sure you get the larger single oval sports exhausts; RTCC fitted mine. They sound better than Librands IMHO, a deeper bass sound, and also look more authentic too. You'd be a donkey not to fit them! innocentlaugh2

Yes, a friend of mine has had them fitted to a Series I, but I don't have any photos unfortunately.
