IAN G Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 took car for a drive to test new 2bular exhaust , all ok , sounds nice not loud as i was expecting but will bed in no doubt i thought swapping the exhaust might muffle the rattley noise the engine makes ,do the all sound shite or is it just mine ??? its a 2zr 1.8 supercharged Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@ndy Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 The 2ZR FE does sound a bit crap with std. exhaust but since swapping for a 2Bular I’ve not really noticed the engine sound any more...... I’m sure it will bed in a little, I think mine has but I have done 1 track day since fitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the same car/engine as you I don't get a rattlely noise that you describe I do get a nice supercharge Whistle and induction Whosh, if you do get to the Tick run next week we can compare incase theres something that needs looking into Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
