    Can you guys please give me some feedbacks? How do you guys like it and can you guys live with the noise level? Did you felt any power gain?

    I am thinking about reinstalling my Timate titanium exhaust back onto the car, but it was so loud on the car when I had stock cats, I know have Kinetic Racing 180 cell cats.

    Last but not least, for those who had Tubi, capristo, or other aftermarket exhausts prior to Timate titanium. How does the noise level compare?

    I think I may have seen a post by 360Trev (who I think runs a timate) that he's recently or is about to change to Kinetic cats - maybe check out his 360 Stradale Manual Conversion thread - inside the last two weeks or so.

    I've recently fitted a Timate exhaust and at present still have the original cats fitted, I think it would be very hard to physically feel any power increase but what I have noticed is that the car is now a lot more free revving, don’t forget over in the UK we don’t have any precats fitted so I'm not sure how this compares to what you might experience in your cars. Sound wise, I love it, I have a spider and roof down it's quite loud, however when the roof is up its very civilized, you can even hear the radio, not that I ever have it on or the roof up. I've just got a set of Nouvalari sports cats and will be fitting these next time I'm home, this should crank the sound up another level or two.
    I suspect if you refit yours you'll find it even louder now you've replaced the stock cats with racing cats.

    Arrrgh, David stop reminding me!! LOL

    Last Sunday a bunch of us 360 owners went for a meet and a tunnel run in London.
    3 cars had stock cats and Timate exhausts. 1 had stock cats and a Capristo stage 2 and the last car had test pipes and a Tubi.

    In my opinion (I run a Tubi but have a Timate in the garage still not fitted) its a no brainer.
    The Timate's have a higher pitched howl (F1) than a cappy or a Tubi.
    I would say DB wise a 360 with standard cats and Timate is AS LOUD as a 360 with test pipes and Tubi. The Timate is just so crisp sounded though - and lets face it - they look awesome and weigh near nothing. At full chat there really isn't much in it certainly for the casual bystander, but for us 360 owners, I think we all agreed the Timate was top of the league.
    Bear in mind also that it was half the price of a Tubi or Capristo and is modelled on a real race system and prove actual BHP gains.

    Lastly.. who wants stainless steel when you can have titanium ;)

    You need to listen my 360 with AP headers, test pipes and capristo twin sound at 9.5k rpm!

    You cannot compare youtube clips - the recordings don't do it justice at all. You cannot replicate the howl titanium makes with steel. Ingpr, I bet yours would howl even higher with titanium pipes ;)

    Agree, YouTube clips aren't the most accurate, in fact, most recorded clips aren't accurate. I decided on the capristo twin sound based on youtube clips, but it turned out different in reality, in a good way so I'm not complaining.
