djb55 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 My drive is a 07 HR Roadster love it to bits but thinkng off a new exhaust now I want a bit louder when I press the fun pedal but I dont want something thats gonna drive me nuts crusing at 90 MPH on the ..... er 70 MPH on the Motorway with the roof up or worse down. I think I have narrowed it down to a Cobra or Scorpion non resonated and having listened to both Im leaning towards the Scorpion. Any other Roadster owners changed exhausts ?? Any ideas/suggestions appreciated Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MITZ@CougarStore Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Dave, the Scorpion only comes with one sound option, its only the Cobra that offers the resonated and non resonated option, we have the Cobra on a Group Buy at present... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldel Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 What is your budget? The two you mentioned are the lower end of the price scale. Many run Milltek, Ark, Invidia but all are double the price'ish How about a custom one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djb55 Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 I was only looking at the lower end off the market so cobra / scorpion is fine, just dont want something that will deafen me in a convertible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Come on mate, you've been here 3 years. Least you could do is post in the right section, never mind that it's a topic that has been asked hundreds of times before. I've moved it to the correct sub forum. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RafsZed Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 When I change I'm going for a Milltek system, Jez at Horsham said it will work perfectly with my uprev. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Personal experience is you will get bored of the lack of tone with the Scorpion. Add a Stillen Y pipe at a later date and that will give a nice tone then add some Berk HFCs and you will have an even nicer tone. The beauty is you can do it in stages and stagger your costs but honestly the Scorpion on it's own is tame (IMO). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mctwistuk Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 We purchased a cobra sport resonates centre and back box and it sounds good. We were on a budget and this came highly recommended Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 So where does one buy a Nismo system as I've never seen any for sale. From what I understand they are as rare as this..... ^^ That's rocking horse sh*t btw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floydbax Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 I'm kinda working the opposite way on my Roadster. - Started at the front end with some Berk HFC's, then added a Hi-flow YPipe, now still contemplating what I ideally want from the mid pipe and rear box. However, the sound has gone from good (OEM) to great, to now - immense (in a good way). - And improved performance as another bonus. You really get the benefit of the sound with a roadster, all coupe drivers ought to blag a spin in one to experience it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
