Anyone have this exhaust in the California Bay Area..area? I just want to see how loud this exhaust is...I had a WRX with a Greddy Evo before and it was pretty tame, but that was a long time ago. If you are in the area it would be cool to meet up. I don't see too many fixed up MCS in the area.

 

sure, im in san francisco, send me a pm

 

How about anyone down in the deep south? Or are any of you guys going to be at MOTD this year? I really need to do something about my Invidia but I don't wnat to make the same mistake twice.

 

palo alto here, feel free to pm me as well

 

Trying to find one. This cat-back connects to the bottom of the downpipe just after it curves towards the back of the car right? Alta's looks too long (or at least includes an extra section for a second cat). Milltek's looks like it might work but not sure of the diameter.

Any plans to develop your own?

 

What is the word on the millteck downpipe???

 

ok here are few shots of my "custom" tail tips , which are hooker tailpipes, resonated....

any difference in interior noise at speed?

 

at highway speeds ( 70mph-80mph ) its almost as quiet as stock, its definitely quieter then Stratmosphere tips.

 

Did you cut holes to lighten up your plastic rear bumper insert?

 

no, strictly aerodynamics issue

 

Any chance i can still get this deal on a system for my Clubman S?

 

Any word on particular Downpipes that will match up to this exhaust. I'm not sure of any catted DP's other than the Alta. I'm considering this exhaust but I want a little more power gain than the exhaust alone is going to give me

 

Anything that fits the OEM exhaust will fit. We designed to the exact stock downpipe location and fitting. Pete, Stratmosphere. 1.866.533.1777

That exhaust sounds really amazing! Can you guys do some audio from within the cockpit?

Got mine Monday and will install it tomorrow, I hope.
Wish Bob had told me that you were going to do 20% again...
Quality looks great and I love the tips.

Has anyone made a video from inside the cabin yet? Really don't wanna have the honda sound to my car, especially inside.

 

definitely nothing like a Honda sound, but you WILL hear it.

 

dude , definitely NOT a honda, more like a rally car deep throaty sound cant wait to hear it with cat-less DP

 

I'm really considering this exhaust. Wish I had started looking for one in Feb so I could catch that 20% off sale

 

Wanted to bump this thread and get some feedback on how the systems are holding up ?
I've already bought & scrapped the Alta & Exhaust Depot systems, it seems to be a real challenge to find a well made, nicely fit, good sounding exhaust for the R56.

 

I have 30k miles on the Stratmosphere and still liking it. I'm surprised that you ditched the Exhaust Depot. I would have purchased the ED if I didn't get the Stratmosphere.

 

I like the system,too bad it is not 3 inch.

 

The ED system sounded pretty decent, much louder than the Alta catback , but it was super heavy & one of the hangers at the rear muffler failed.
The Alta turboback was probably be best system I had if it didn't throw a CEL and didn't have that garbage can size resonator in the middle. 3" is just a bit too large/too tight under the car.
