New Piper Stainless Steel Cat Back Exhaust for GTD
« on: 13 July 2012, 17:23 »
Thanks to Adam and the guys at Piper..... Nice bunch....  Here is photo of the first Piper Exhaust for a GTD:-





And the sad old exhaust that gave me back as a spare.


You would not think it could be so refined on the motorway without the silencers - but its just a quiet as before.  It makes a nice sound when you put your foot down.  It make as nice burble when you turn the engine off.  The guys at Piper were disappointed it was not louder.  However, I'm very happy!

Thanks for the positive comments. :smiley:   I'll get a video done over the weekend. 

Don't worry - nothing is wonky on her...

I have not noticed an increase in power.  To really push the power up you'd need a turbo back with sports CAT, with the associated remap so the turbo can cope with the extra air flow.  They were looking into making a turbo back but I'm not ready to go that far on my newish car!  I'd bet it would be incredible...
