what exhaust
Turbo Mini Forums

Hey guys, i'm looking into buying an exhaust soon but i'm not entirely sure which one to go for. Basically i would really like the playmini twin supersport silencer (the one that has exits either side at the rear) but would this be suitable for a turbo? I'm not if it would be beneficial or not.
What do you think the best one to go for in terms of performance and sound are? I dont want it to be stupidly loud (although someone said the turbo acts as a slight muffler which does quieten it down a bit)
Thank you in advance for your help/opinions :)

play mini or something similar.IMO.

Minishop does something similar, when i bought mine it came free post as the order was over ?117.50, dont know if that offer still applies.

It will be plenty quite enough for lets say the castle coombe noise test, mine is.

you can get cheaper deals at the shows though.

so would either of these be suitable ?

or would i be better off going for a single centre exit or the like?

oh yeah, which of the above do you think would sound better? The round pipes, or the boxster?

the goods with a turbo is that it is quiet , as the turbine act like a silencer for the exhaust noise,
so you can use the larger and noisy single box n/a one , it will be quieter and will reduce turbo back pressure on a turbo set up

americans call them rotory mufflers LOL!
