Default Cherry Bomb Exhaust

Hello all!


Im going to be after a new back box for my Mondy and I was just wondering if any of you peeps had ever had a Cherry Bomb?


Are they any good? Do they sound too over the top and noisy?


Many thanks


Nobby

They were popular-ish back in the 90's. But to be honest they're wank. Poor build quality and stupidly loud! No one in their right mind would have one fitted nowadays.

I bought a cheapo xr2i back in the day with a cherry bomb on it. Was stupidly loud. Motorway journeys were painful and after a while the frequency of the drone made me feel sick.

never had a cherry bomb, had a peco big bore 4, that was better.

Then had a full ashley system which was stupidly loud but made the car go a hell of a lot better.

cherry bomb and wasp exhausts was about the same
