Part (new/light) Citroen BX silencer, part eBay SS stainless bend, part ex-Rolls Royce RAF jet engine tubing. :mrgreen:

Even with a decat this exhaust is quiet, really really quiet, infact I think its probably quieter than standard.
Im not sure wether I like it, I did want a quieter exhaust, but was fancing a sporty tone still.

It's louder than stock, according to Fujitsubo. 2db at 5000rpm or something like that. I replaced my flexi section and midpipe with stainless 3" straight through pipe and it changed it quite a bit.

when I fitted it I needed a flexi so got one made up same as yours. Granted Ive never had a stock exhaust on any of mine but I could imagine it being mucher quieter, talking at normal level in the car at high speeds is achievable, although i still cant hear our lass talking for some reason.....lol.

Certainly is! Loads of D2 regulars kicking around, but the pro is the rare beast! Awesome exhaust 8)

Best looking twin exit for an MR2 bar none in my opinion.

Just wish it didn't weigh almost as much as the entire car! and have a crappy mild steel Y pipe. I have plans to change the Y pipe soon for some stainless or aluminium piping and see if i can do any other lightening to it.

Aye, tis a heavy ole beast, and part mild steel which sucks. Easily remedied though, exhaust fabricator to replace all m/s with s/s :thumleft:

Dunno if it could be lightened though. I had a pro on my old rev 1. Weighed as much as the Titanic! :lol:

I love custom made exhausts :)
First version (used untill back boxes burned out). This was not so loud.

And the second, inspired by Blitz and much louder :thumleft:

not keen on twin exits...mean it not a 6 with 2 sets of cylinders each needing its own exhaust...a single pipe splitting into two sounds wrong to me.

not quite on par with fake honey comb grilling on astras etc but still..
