I would depend on the spec of the system i.e what size silencers and tailpipes e.t.c you'd like but we could probably do a system for around the £500-£550 mark 1 Deacon reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tareim 343 Report post Posted June 2, 2016 looks like it's going to be loud maybe droning without any form of resonator? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CGR Automotive 28 Report post Posted June 3, 2016 This will be a louder option however we build all our own silencers so they're very well packed and suppress quite a lot of noise for how compact they are, there's plenty of room to fit another silencer in the centre-pipe if that's what some customers would rather go for. I'll get a video of one of the 370Z systems we do which had basically 4 boxes of similar size to the ones pictured and was spot on for what the customer wanted, not too loud at all with minimal cabin noise when cruising but gave a noise but not too loud when opened up, there was plenty of room to still make it louder and that's a 320bhp 3.7litre V6. We'll be offering various options to cater for different noise levels too so we can make them to your exact specifications 2 Gringosteve and Keethos reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
S18 RSG 429 Report post Posted June 3, 2016 I agree with the guys, you may be surprised when you fit the exhaust just how loud these cars are with an unresonated exhaust. Mine had a centre silencer and a fairly large baffled back box and it's still loud. Look forward to hearing it though, certainly looks like a nice design.

CGR Automotive 28 Report post Posted June 3, 2016 Just to be clear the two rear boxes are technically resonators, we just call them silencers as we only build highly effective straight through resonated silencers. Fingers crossed we'll have the system fitted to the car in the next few weeks or so and will try both set-ups with 2 and 3 silencers, there's always scope to make them bigger and smaller depending on customer needs so there'll definitely be an option for everyone 1 Gringosteve reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CGR Automotive 28 Report post Posted June 28, 2016 Hi guys, We're still after a development car for our first exhaust system. We've got all the parts in and ready to go to build it we just need a willing victim to let us have a play with one. System will be built to your spec as requested, quiet or as loud as you'd like with any style of tips e.t.c Take a look at our facebook and instagram for pictures of other bits and bobs we've been doing Facebook Instagram Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nope no word from him as of yet, how far is nowhere near? We've had people drive from all over the place in the past but I understand it's quite an inconvenience especially as we'd need the car for a little while.

Gringosteve 213 Report post Posted June 29, 2016 I live in Manchester, if it was a free exhaust it would be worth the inconvenience of borrowing a loan car and getting over to you My exhaust is standard apart from a 2nd decat, and I have the original 2nd cat if needed _____________________________________ www.tuned.org.uk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I paid £450 for my custom exhaust which is amazing quality, lifetime warranty, T304 stainless, my own choice of tips etc. However, I'd be willing to give it up as I've been thinking about a slightly louder system and different tailpipes, but not paying £500 for that. Could go back to the original shop and have those changes made for maybe £150. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
