Exhaust on my T5

[cameron]

Ive done the best swap ever this weekend.

James ( offtheclockuk ) had a straight through pipe on his V70 T5 but as he is selling the car he wanted it to be as standard as possible, to help the sale a bit.

Anyway, the sound of it on my 850 T5 is absolutely awesome, really bassy, it sounds like its burbling, theres not even the resinance that james was talking about on his V70

Put your foot down and it sounds awesome, almost subaru-ish, im loving the sound, before it was the silent approach, now peeps will deffo hear me coming.

Cheers James for getting this exhaust made up and doing a straight swap

Lmao....come show me what it sounds like so I can think abut it, what's it like on the motorway?, don't want deafening on the way to work.

When it was on James's V70 there was really bad resinance at about 2.5k under load but theres none of that on mine.

well got a great excuse to de cat the R now, looks like the cat has gone on it as can hear a rumbling from car on idle, so had a look yesterday and not from engine but from around the cat area, also a bit of rattling there....Also explains why the Lambda light is up and refusing to go away....so told the wife and she just rolled her eyes and said " suppose another £250 " to which i replied actually no, i could have it decatted, i explianed the process and that its fine then hit her with " it ll only cost about £80" so she said well that makes sense to do that then....LOL De cat it is then
