Remus Exhaust

[BLKRLA]

Quick question. The remus exhaust for the Sportivo whats your impression?

Any good?

Sound?

Cost??

Cheers

I have just recently had the Remus Muffler fitted to my 04 Sportivo. I am extremely happy with what I got. The sound of the exhaust is deep & throaty but relatively quiet. Meaning that there is plenty of noise when you are excelarating but when you cruising along at a steady speed it is very quiet, no cabin drone which is typical of most exhaust.

There is not really any difference with the power of the car, maybe a little more torque but it has definately made the engine breathe better & it now seems more willing to rev.

It also looks fantastic. The finish of the muffler is second to none.

I have heard many different exhaust on the Sportivo in particular & in my opinion the sound that is generated is better than most, but obviously this is a personnal opinion.

Worth every penny although I'm not sure if I should be saying this as I like being one of the few who have this exhaust.

Me too :D , but I think the price tends to keep alot of people away from it

well iv got a 2.1/4 inch cat back with lukey resonator and Xforce muffler and it sounds just the same! im happy with the sound and extra perfrormance!

[BLKRLA]

I believe X-force are supposed to be an excellent system also. Never tried one myself but there seems to be several members who speak highly of them. I will have to check it out this weekend at the meet, hopefully will see you there. :D :D

[CORZZA]

yeah il be there!

U guys crack me up!!! I agree with everyone. People should lighten up a bit. If you were offended by the hitlerland comment, then fair enough. However personally i don't think it should offend you? It was a joke mate.

Ok all you modified 'rollas where are the sound bites ??

My friend was saying that the 'rolla exhaust system is good enough and that all the gains are in the muffler. He was looking at a magnaflow(Or is it magma?) muffler - they any good ?

Bring on the pics and sounds plz !!

Oh I forgot - Very nice choice with the Remus unit, the muffler looks good would love to see what that looks like on the 'rolla

I can do better than a sound byte ;) ... here's a link to a short video I took when I had my exhaust fitted:

2" from resonator back, Ultraflo mild steel muffler, stainless tip

Pic as promised soz no sound not that digitally inclined . ie no recorder

Is that the square tip Remus or another brand?

It seems to sit very close to your bumper, you might want to keep an eye on that as heat in the ehaust tip could damage it

Never mind I had a look At the Remus website & there are pictures on there of your system. The system on the Sportivo sits lower.

Are you happy with it?

I think mine's great, love the sound & the look

[CORZZA]

It sounds good bro!!

Check my Garage for pics

[CORZZA]

Im on it!

[Donza]

Yeah, but what is better for Drivability and overall power?

CES Exhaust or Muffler? Muffler $800.00 mark from memory, CES about $1100.00 correct?

Anyone tried the CES exhaust with the Remus muffler?

[CAP]

The CES system is designed to work optimally with it's specific rear muffler, no point in changing the muffler to something else on that system.

IMO a full cat-back or header-back system will always be better than just a muffler.

All Remus Muffler's come complete with a flange that is designed to suit the standard piping for each specific car. CES use custom mandrel bent piping with a larger diameter than standard. having said that the pipe on the Sportivo models is 2.25" which is very large for a standard car with 1.8L engine hence why most of the pwer gain comes from using a free flow muffler. CES use 2.5" as far as know so it is only a tine bit larger than standard, I'm sure someone will let me know if I'm wrong.

Remus Muffler expect to pay upwards of $850 fitted.

CES expect to pay $1100 for cat back system fitted.

[CORZZA]

pretty expensive.

[tinkz]

im looking for a cat back system but i dont think $800 up is worth the money for the increase u get.

theres an exhaust place near my house called carline mufflers at mt druitt which has a really good reputation he quoted me around $400 mark with a lukey exhaust, any1 know wat lukey mufflers are like?

I'm getting my exhaust done at castle hill same place CORZZA and EGGBERT_99 went to get theirs done.

I was set on getting a Lukey ultra flo muffler like BUDDA's but the guy at castlehill talked me into getting a ultra flo red back muffler instead. He said he was constantly doing warrantee jobs for Lukey and Redback is a superior product in his opinion.

I personally think depends on who you speak to because guys at my local carline speak wonders of Lukey.

But because the guy at castle hill has looked after a few forum members already I think his advice is worthy of something.
