Default whats the best exhaust?

I have had a scorpion and found that too loud. I have just brought a magnex and it sounds better but looks like a C.A.R. add on and just doesn't look right. what else can i try? [/b]

If you want it off the shelf what about a Mongoose ?
I've had a couple on different Sapph's and been quite happy

I can't believe that all exhausts can be quiet if driven correctly if not you may need to have a custom made powerflow jobbie, not as expensive as people think

AFAIK this is essentially the same as mongoose, made by the same company.
Magnex will be the quietest choice - available with 3" or 4" tailpipe.

Hi, I have tried Scorpion, Mongoose, Magnex and now Exstreme. They all seems to be a bit loud, but only when going .... . And all is "booming" inside around 24-2800rpm, so it all is down to personal taste....I think.

The one I'll keep will be the Extreme , because it fits so well, and its so easy to work with.......compared to the others !!! So best choice in my opinion is ....... the EXTREME zorst !

Yes the EXTREME is essentially a Mongoose with a 4" slash cut tail, and it's cheaper, it's easy'er to fit and take apart and last but not last it "fits" alot better than the "Goose".... my opinion ...

I have a scorpion on my 4x4 , whats annoying is that in fifth gear at 60-65 mph it drones like a bastid, but having said that i dont sit at 60 very often so i guess it aint that big of a deal What i will say is that you cant beat the sound of a scorpion attached to a cossie at full throttle
