Tubi not as loud as before

No idea on the exhaust, but congratulations on 50k miles!

All the best,
Andrew.

 

I would say the tend to get louder with age as the baffling wears out.

 

By pass valve not opening?

 

Warranty expires at 50000 mi?

 

Angelis,
Replace your hearing aid battery.........

 

+1 .......... good point on the valve! .... plus as F1moving mentioned, exhausts normally get a bit louder with age.

 

Sometimes carbons can build up inside the muffler and has the tendency to muffle the sound a little bit.

 

Its a 348......doesn't need a bypass valve to sound good!

 

A 348 with a Capristo going by you earlier in the week and you realizing how tame the Tubi is...

 

lol ....... ......... I forgot about the car owned by the OP ..... I just read the title and some responses and posted a 'quick reply' ..... I didn't even look at the pics ....

 

Maybe you have ear wax buildup?

 

Did you check your leakdown/compression numbers?

My Capristo 3 seems to have changed a bit too after 25k miles of me driving with it, not quieter or louder but slightly deeper in pitch.

Car looks awesome BTW, especially with 355 rims. Very stealthy and aggressive yet still somehow elegant. Wish I hadn't blown my wad on a problem 996, I could have bought 2 nice 348's with the money... So dumb!

 

Damn you are right. THe 355 wheels threw me off.

 

you can have something break inside the muffler and change the sound character. I would take it off the car and shake it. If it rattles you can cut the can open and fix it and TIG weld it back. If you are running cats you can have an upstream cat breakup that fools you into thinking the problem is in the muffler or have a piece of cat end up in the muffler.

 

Can try this one: Simson Auspuff ausbrennen mal anders!!!! - YouTube

 

Hahahaha!

+1

You're just loosing your hearing as you're getting older Sy.

 

Side note, where'd you get the carbon dash overlay?
