what to do

[fatfingers]

Just had a straight through exhaust fitted to my T2, it sounds amazing but it\'s just too loud!, but when I fit the baffle it really saps the power  

Can you get bigger baffles? or any other sudgestions?

Cheers Chaps

anyone?

the baffle that come with the exhaust is only 1", but the tailpipe i 4".  Does anyone make a baffle that\'s 2" or 3" in diameter?

:confused:

Come on, some of you must have some thoughts on this.  Do any of you gave a straight through turbo back exhaust? are you using a baffle? what size is the small end of the baffle?

can you not whack a bigger pipe which bolts on? There\'s is a greddy or was it apexi butterfly thing you can pull to adjust how much of the exhaust it blocks off/silences........Did look at them when i first got car but didnt pish neighbours off too much so didnt bother....http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008_ZNxdm46052GB\' target=\'_blank\'>http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/4/4_2_112.gif\' border=0>

Live with the noise!  Scare the neighbours, enjoy those long tunnels......come join us...join the noisy brigade.....   :cool

[fatfingers]

you really drive with a straight through exhaust? nothing from turbo to back box??

[Gman]

I drive with a single straight through.  I have been driving with a 3.5 inch baffle but this weekend it comes out and let the flames begin.

Yes it will be loud, ease off the loud pedal if u see the pigs.

The only thing that bothers me is starting it from cold when it ticks over at 3k!!! if only the baffle was easier to remove, mines a tight bugger!!!!:reallymad

 Why did you go for a straight through pipe set up?

 What mods are you running?

[fatfingers]

It was an ebay bargain!! no mods yet, just a FCD.

Going to hayward and scott this morning to get a bigger tailpipe baffle made, this will hopfully be a good comprimise between boost & noise!!

[TRex]

E-bay bargains are always good..........

 I am presently researching a full system for my project.

 It will have non restrictive silencers on though as I do not want too much noise.......

 Got a few options already, but taking it in for a quote on a custom made set up.  I may want an option on the turbo flange!

I agree with the others, if you can get out of the car and your ears aren\'t ringing too bad, then you are doing well.

I have run a few cars with big straight thru exhausts, and a couple with bungs in.

Run it without the bung, you know they suck.
Why buy a larger diameter exhaust just to choke it at the exit.

If you go on a long run, then stick it in there, i found my car was a big odd when it was bungged up about 110mph+ it would choke and you had to let off the throttle a bit until you got past that area, then it was smooth sailing again.
