Underslung exhaust.

:drive: I have just changed from underslung exhaust to side-pipes on my Cob. I am probably going to put the underslung system on e-bay. Then I thought before I do someone on here might be interested, if so send me a pm. It is all stainless originally fitted to standard RV8 manifolds. (which are also available). Two nice little oval silencers. The system has done less than 300 miles & sounded very sweet.

Re: Underslung exhaust.

Hey Jools,
Not wanting to go over old ground with this but as you have experienced both underslungs & now sidepipes what are your thoughts on the difference between the two?

Regards,
Martyn

Re: Underslung exhaust.

Martyn, I think it comes down to personal preference between the 2. I like the look of sidepipes although the noise level is higher. Also as the driver the exhaust note sounds unbalanced because you tend to hear one side more than both together. The other consideration is ground clearance. Around where I live the damn speed humps make it like the shake & rattle test track at MIRA.

Re: Underslung exhaust.

Hi,

I have just changed from underslungs on a 350 chevy to side pipes. Whilst I agree it is very much personal choice. The side pipes made my car sound awsome! plus gave me loads of ground clearence. On the down side Missus caught her leg on the heat sheild first time out and had a nice burn mark for a few days. I think it may be just me but the engine seems to run better, it might have something to do with the fact it can breath easier.....

Regards
Garry
