Got this today at work. Will be going on the car tomorrow morning.





I will give my thoughts, pics, and such after it is done.

 

Nice enough to hang on your livingroom wall tonight.

Enjoy.

 

which one is that? UUC, Milltek?

 

How did the install go? :smile:

 

The exhaust is a Scorpion exhaust from Bavarian motorsports.

 

Compared to the Milltek, this one lacks a resonator in the midpipe and has slightly larger mufflers.

Nice tips.

Anyone have the dyno numbers on Power and torque gains?

 

Minihune,


It has the same power as the JCW. About 4hp. It's advantage is the price at $495, it can't be beat, and it has a pretty good sound. And at this point, no one has given a negative review of the exhaust, unlike some of them for the Borla, UUC, Miltek.... that you also see used on e-bay because people didn't like them or thought they spent too much money on the exhaust.

 

The install went good overall. There was one issue and that lies where the straight pipe and y pipe connect. There are 4 slots at the end of the connector pipes to clamp closed around the other pipe and form a tight fit. Well, the slots are longer than the clamp is wide and because of this, there is the slightest leak. My remedy today will be to go to Home Depot and just buy a second clamp to place right behind the first clamp and tighten it up.

THe sound is exactly what I was looking for. It is very subtle (almost nonexistant) at a normal drive. But, when at WOT, it is a very nice, refined, low pitched, quiet growl. I did not want something that would have been very intrusive and this is surely the answer.

The build of the exhaust is second to none. Welds are very nice. And the whole thing just looks beautiful.

So, overall, if you are looking for a nice exhaust that is not too loud, and has the right pricetag, I would go with the Scorpion.
