QuickSilver exhaust questions ??

I've heard of this exhaust. Never seen one though. Does anyone here have any experience with them? Specifically the Sport model with a single oval tip. I'd like to see a picture of the tip, but QuickSilver has none on their site. How do they sell exhausts that folks can't look at before hand?

Thanks for the help.

EDIT.... It's for a 2006 MCS R53.

The video with the Borla exhaust also features the QuickSilver.

You should ask OasisT over in the Autocross section... He just landed them as his sponsor

Thanks for the link blainelv.

I have been talking with him about them Methius.

From what I've found so far I believe it's going to be too loud for me.

Hey Crash! I've heard it in person (drove a MINI with one on it) and it sounded too ricey for my liking...and I didn't like the oval tip on it....

That's all I can comment on it though. I would try to hear it in person if you can.

It isn't loud at all. I used to sell it before the price got out of control and we had some issues with fitment and tip alignment - something that usually presents on the single side systems. It sounds fine though - not loud and kind of like a turbine at speed.

Hope that helps!
Randy

Thanks guys, I think I've decided to keep the JCW on.

Hey Cody are you going to the car show at Harbin park & the picnic at Sharon Woods? If so I'll see you Sunday.
