New 2bular Exhaust

I got Jim at 2bular to make me a non-pc custom exhaust for my Exige.

It is a 6 inch box with what he describes as an "ultra core" pipe of which he says, "You have a unique exhaust design - it's nothing like the std 2bular 6" systems I've sold before - trust me, this one is twice as LOUD as any of the 6" systems I've sold anywhere!"

Obviously this can go horribly wrong and I might hate it or go deaf... but ... it is what I asked for and it looks ace 8)

Hopefully getting it fitted by the end of the week so if anyone is in the market for a fairly unused Stage 3 Exhaust then drop me a PM before it hits eBay.

Love the sound of my 2bular :love. Brilliant sound considering it's created from a wee 1.8 engine, including the occasional pops and bangs it gives on the overrun. Enjoy :thumbsup

I probably should, so I can hear the difference myself.
Jim did say he was pleased how yours turned out and was confident I would be happy :)

I've actually got a new idea for mine, not sure if I'll get Jim to build it this year or wait until next year but I don't think many people would have done what I have in mind.

Watch this space :thumbsup

Don't think Side pipes would work on an Evora :lol: however exhaust each side would look pretty cool. Just make sure you don't go down the Ferrari route of 3 exhaust tips.

Which reminded me I've been meaning to find out why the 458 has 3 tips.... which I've just done. To save anyone the bother of searching, the centre pipe is used from idle to 3k-3.5k (depending on mode). Above that speed, the flappy valves swap to the two outer pipes. So, it's a noise/emissions thing. Boring. I was hoping for a fascinating 8-into-3 header design, but I got EU regulations instead. :(

:damnfunny no side pipes or changes to the external pipes, more to do with the parts you can't see. I'm no exhaust designer but if what I'm thinking could work I think it would be a very cool idea.

Learn something new everyday, also explains why a number of the aftermarket exhausts for the 458 have just 2 pipes doing anything.

Ferrari also make a "Gentleman's" Exhaust option which keep it to 96db for track use where as the standard one has a peak of 104db (Still quiet by my standards :lol: )

Additional fail; it is meant to look like an F40 setup, except without the awesomeness that the centre pipe is for the waste gate.
