360 Novitec Supersport Exhaust.

Well I have finally found a sports exhaust I'm happy with. After trying a Tubi and a Capristo I have finally decided on the Novitec Supersport. I will try and post a sound file soon and I will post some pics as well.

The thing I like about the Novitec is that you get no low rpm boom at all but you get a fantastic sound above 3-4k rpm. The Tubi I tried was quite boomy at low revs and in my opinion it's noise wasn't very sophisticated,it just gets louder.

The Capristo level 1 scared me!!!!!! The noise it made below 3k rpm was deafening. If you was stuck in traffic with cars either side of you the sonic boom hurts your head. After the first day of driving my ears was ringing and when I was in bed at night and I had a bad headache. The noise above 4k rpm is fantastic, very high pitched and it sounds amazing but waaaay to loud. The Capristo is the first exhaust I have purchased that has made me feel sick physically. It really does get into your head in a bad way. My other concern was the amount of heat it generates, even with a challenge grill the engine bay and rear wings get very very hot.

The Novitec is quite civilised compared. As I said earlier you get no boom or horrible rumble at low revs.It is quite loud on tickover but the noise stays behind the car. When the revs get to 3k rpm the exhaust begins to howl and the noise gets higher in pitch. When you really go for it it sounds fantastic. The good thing about it is the noise is always behind the car and dosn't intrude into the cabin. With the windows up it is very quiet inside but sounds great outside.

I had a Porsche Boxster follow me for about 4 miles going to Melton Mowberry, he had his roof down.When he pulled alongside he sounded his horn and said that my 360 sounded fantastic. I'm glad he said that because when I first got it I was thinking that maybe it was too quiet.

The exhaust has 90mm tips and you also get a 3 peice grill set to match the challenge grill which tidies the back end of the car up.

Overall I'm very pleased, some may find it to quiet for there taste but I use my car for weekends away with the wife and do a lot of town driving so the no boom bonus won me over.

I will try and post pics.
