Since buying the Elise S, I've enjoyed the stealth and 'none-asbo' exhaust note (or total lack of note TBH!!) when compared to the Tomato. However, when in tunnels on our recent Alps trip - and when seeing the look of disappointment on car park admirers faces on starting the engine
- the schoolboy desire for a fruitier, more characteristic sound started me wondering what can be done.I hear of 'Stage 1' and 'Stage 2' systems, 'Tubulars', and so on... but know little about them or their cost
I am not interested in needing earplugs (the Tomato ticks that box) or upsetting old ladies, but I think I'd like something you can actually hear at revs, so character/note/fruitiness rather than noise IYSWIM. Do any of these options actually have an effect (good or bad) on the performance of a standard Yota engine?I've surprised myself with this - I normally am only interested in mods that specifically affect/improve performance, rather than cosmetics
