Ive been browsing the net and really like the look of the RPI GT exhaust ive been reading that these are a little loud what do you guys think. Also are these sold in the uk or do i have to import from the us thanks.
 
I've had one for about 2 years now. It's not raspy at all at higher revs. It's only raspy and drones until about 3k in fact. Then it's just a bass straight six scream..

erol_h, it's not just loud, it's extremely loud. If noise or drone might be an issue at all then look elsewhere. It sure sounds sweet on a mountain run though.... :driving:

When I first got my rpi's I thought way too loud! but they have slightly quieten down and to be honest I think they suit the car's personality and Loud and fast !! :D
 
I will be driving the car 3 or 4 times a month but dont want it to sound over the top but its just hard to judge by just listening on the sh1t speakers on my laptop. I think it would be much better to hear the exhaust in person i need to find a member local to me to have a listen. Now is there any members in or around the london area with these exhaust pipes.
 
Look, i really like them. It's a daily driver too. But keep in mind that these change the car's character completely! You'll turn heads and attract attention, not always the good kind either. I don't kid myself, this isn't exactly a universally liked modification... and yes sometimes it might get on my nerves (motorway trips for example) but one quick drive on a B-road clears my head and brings a smile to my face like nothing else. Nothing like the scream of a straight six bouncing back at you from a cliff wall. Oh and try driving through a tunnel without giggling like an idiot afterwards. :lol:
 
If Ur quick iam working in slough til Friday don't normally use the car for work so this will be the only time iam in it in slough! Don't know what part if London Ur from ? But Ur welcome for a test drive !

ga's ///M is NA not supercharged, ut I agree it sounds great :evil:
 
I used to sh1t myself in cyprus going through the mountains when i was a kid i definetly wouldn't have the balls to be driving around like that.
 
the rpi is too noisey for everyday use imo..... heres mine, its sounds different due to a different tuning avenue but the overall noise is about right..... since adding boost the tone has changed completely.... heres what the car sounds like with 8.5lbs of boost.
