V8 Vantage exhaust questions

Anybody got some thoughts/advice/facts on V8 Vantage exhausts - Tubi/Quicksilver/factory opened - like HP vs cost vs myths ? And are the stock cats (there are 2 up before the exhaust) a 100 cell unit or more "street" like 300-400 cell ? also does the N24 actually have different exhaust and air intake ?

michael, check out the thread regarding exhausts in the db9 section of the amoc forum. Apparently, some people are having resonance problems with the qs exhaust vs the larini exhaust

We recently contracted wiht QS to develop and distribute systems for North America. The Vantage and DB9 systems are different as are the engine note characteristics of each car. I have the Super Sport + system on my Vantage which sounds amazing, QS also makes a slightly quieter Super Sport version, The note and volume on the + system is pretty aggressive however interior Resoncance really isnt an issue, I have some sound clips of the + system that I can E-mail if anyone is interested. Some other good points are an overall saving of 40+ lbs over the factory system and noticeable increase in mid range throttle response.

The cats will part of a complete power kit (intake Cats, Exhaust, ECU)

I do not want to get ahead of the development, however, we are expecting 30-35HP for the NA kit... pirce target will be 5-6K for the complete package

We should have hard data on the N/A kit very shortly.. I will keep you guys in the loop.. should be just what the V8 Needs

Hello

Here are a Couple of Video clips of our Vantage C with complete power kit
This car now produces 448HP and sounds very aggressive. we have 3 different sound level exhaust systems so you can tailor the sound to your taste.. The clip you hear is our loudest exhaust option with High Flow cats and remapped ECU ..

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance
