Just fitted a Janspeed exhaust to my MR2, everything seems fine, no blowing or obvious vibrations. I'm quite happy with the sound and everything but... between 2-3000 rmp I'm getting a very loud exhaust note, almost sounding like a huge vibration which im not too keen on . Is this normal? I heard there was something a few people cut off as it interfered with this system but i didnt seem to find anything like that whist fitting it.....
Any ideas guys?
Cheers
My mild steel Janspeed system has a rasp that starts at about 1500-2000 rpm, I love it I am a fully signed-up member of the "rev for no reason" crew or should that be Krew! If you want I will try and get a recording of it.
cheers for the responses guys, i think i was just paranoid about the baffles being gone or something... and ive never heard a noise liek that from such a innocent looknig system I'm getting some little backfires too which i do actually love! Just seems such a mental noise for 2-3 (which is the most used in eco driving ) Sounds really good at higher rpm though for sure!
Sorry, after checking, you are correct, my Janspeed is most "Manly" between 2.5k (Raspy) to 3k (rasp/boom). If you feather the throttle, whilst eco driving, it's not 2 bad, and I have found you can avoid it most of the time, like when I gave my mum a lift, by changing gear at the appropriate time. It's not the best companion on a long trip
