ECU and Exhaust system for the Granturismo

Tubi advertise an exhaust; but I have seen nothing more than that at this point.

 

Larini exhaust might be out in 2 months time.

 

I looking for exhaust systems too... i havent fund yet :S

Planning on moving forward on a Gran Turismo this week. Drove the car Saturday, loved it. Needs about 50 more horses though....Anyone knowing any tuning companies please post......

 

Try DMS Automotive in UK, ive done a few maser quattroportes with great results takes it up to 438hp and improves greatly on throttle response.

 

my order for Tubi exhaust has reach singapore soil and installing next week. shall revert on the experience real soon. cheers.

 

Look forward to hearing your opinion on the Tubi, i do think the GT needs a bit more sound.

 

Just had tubi installed yesterday. will try to post some pix and sound clip here very soon.

On a serious note, those that enjoy their audio in their GT, you will not have the chance to enjoy it anymore.. haha. With Tubi, low rpm 2-2.5k mark very nosiy in the cabin. Very bassy sound produce within the cabin, can feel the cabin vibrating. If u hv opt for Bose audio system like me, sell it. hahahah.

Smoother throttle response and changing gear can be instantly felt with tubi. Chicks from 3 blocks away will hear u coming with tubi too. so with the extra noise in the cabin, wat the hack, live with it for me.

i m monitoring the fuel consumption now with tubi on. was clocking 17.2L/100km on an average. today see 20.2L/100km, nearly fainted.

 

That's what I feared the Tubi result would be I am afraid. My car is staying standard.

Sry for the poor sound quality cos using F'up mobile phone to record.. half way thru the video, i accidentally convered the recorder part so cant hear S.hit. haha.

 

I'm interested in the DMS upgrade and asked another UK based user on ************ what his experience of the Tubi exhaust and DMS chip upgrade has been since fitting them to his GranTurismo. He emailed me as follows:

"Hello,

I was not 100% happy when I got my GT .. it was a bit like driving a German car at first, very smooth and quiet. It felt like the engine was not giving 100% - same engine as my old gransport which was so lively yet dull in the GT !!
The upgrade has helped a great deal giving the engine more freedom, more revs and torque. I think what's really aided are the new back boxes which allows the engine to breath more and the gear change from 1st to 2nd now sounds like a Spitfire!!

The upgrade on the software was £1200 +vat (should be £1400 + vat). Have a word with Mike Cooper from DMS he can fill you in on the finer details of the upgrade. Now I enjoy driving my GT. It sounds like a Maserati and revs like one !!

Good luck with your car."

 

Iain,

Go for the DMS upgrade then, im certain you will be more than happy with it even without the tubi.

 

Jonathan,

Going to see how I get on with it in standard tune for a month or two then decide. Just had a call to say it's gone to status 60 which means it has been handed over to the transport company for delivery. Fingers crossed it'll be here by Friday.
