Very loud, but I love it

Scorpion with no centre box

bigchez

Same as that! Straight through from downpipe to backbox.

Its actually pretty quiet at idle and when pootling round but sounds like a jet fighter at full chat.

James, aren't the Scorpion systems restrictive?? only what i've heard, probably nonsense..

bigchez

Maybe at like 550+ bhp, but I can't see a prob on mine which realistically is 400 max. It sounds good and hasn't fallen off yet so I'll leave it alone!

Staffi

iTrader: (1)

I just remember reading it somewhere i think, they're ok for around 400ish, but as you've said, once in the 550 plus not so good, mind you, at those power levels most probaly have custom ones fitted i'd say...

Getting my centrebox removed next week, just want to add some character to the car, it's TO quiet at the moment... and before anyone disses me, i know it's CHAVVY............

I've thought about removing the center box as it's dented to fuck anyway, do people see any increase in power with this removed??

i removed mine a while ago and although not a lot different on tickover was way too loud hammering it... im sure it felt less responsive too.. had a smaller box back in the middle with a larger mongoose backbox and is much better....

Staffi

iTrader: (1)

Tony,

Did you notice any loss in performance woth yours removed, or was it removed when you bought it??

gibbo frst

iTrader: (2)

it might have just been the noise making it sound/ feel more sluggish felt sort of lazy...?
was too loud for me and im not that old yet either...
the old exhaust was scorpian with tiny back box tho... new mongoose backbox is twice the size...

Tony Rs

iTrader: (9)

It was removed before i got the car mate , but the sound is simply superb if you like the turbo burble sound you will love it with the box removed

Staffi

iTrader: (1)

Staffi

iTrader: (1)

Lol,

It's a handful Tony believe me.. great fun though...

Jimboxr4x4

What are the standard exhausts for cossies? Did they come from the factory with mild steels systems and how quiet were they. Did they have large centre box and back box?

tabetha

That was interesting to listen to, my Scorpion is about the same noise on idle, WITH the centre box in, but noisier on revving, anyone got a vid clip of a Scorpion with centre box removed please ?
tabetha

swettyring

and me!

swettyring

to my knowledge they came as standard in mild steel with a twin centre box and backbox.

TurboShed

Two pipes with centre boxes either side of the prop, joining up at the single box at the rear. Like a pea shooter, good for stage 1 and no more I think.

my old saff had the middle box cut out .. was ok on idle but when going for it was noisey as fook ,,couldnt even hear the radio over it..no chance of passing noise regs at donnington fookin horrible ,, i put a new middle section back in..sounded much better imo

JamesH

Staffi/Pete,

I've heard they are too, but not for 350bhp, so we love it

You could feel a slightly improved throttle responce after having it removed, or so it seemed anyway

You can ask markyd3 off here about the noise if you want a non-biased opinion, and he took his scorpion off cos he's :ghey: and doesn't want it too loud

Him and Pops were in the Saff and overtook me on a bypass local to us, and I wound down the window in my van, and my ears SERIOUSLY hurt, the noise was fooking AWESOME!! It soon disappeared off into the sunset too, they'd got to the end of the bypass and turned around, floored it back the other way before I'd got to the end of it

Staffi ,scorpion exhaust are restrictive because of the middle box,has a reduced bore,have removed the middle box from my saff,dont know what exhaust is on it,but sounds a lotter sharper

cheeRS stu

Staffi

iTrader: (1)

Lol @ James....


Stu,

So basically then when you put it like that, removing the centrebox on ANY system will help, cus in theory you're making it less restrictive yes??

I always wonder whether it effects the mapping of the car, well the fuelling side of things..
