Hi, I am prepared to order a bolt on exhaust but does anyone know what is a true bolt on one? My car has different flanges to what I am used to. Will a standard flange bolt to it? or is there a particular system that will fit?

Save your money and do a muffler delete. One that will be a one piece direct replacement for stock so you can put it back together whenever you want. Most people on the forum will agree it sounds amazing and saves money and looks great depending on the tips you choose. Search the exhaust forums..

Yeah, no offence but I think Muffler deletes sound great while you are up it but absolutely horrible just putting around. It reminds me of a 17 year old with a try hard boy racer

That's because you haven't heard it on our car yet. Ask other members on here...even the rcF owners are a little jealous we have this option...lol. Also there's no drone and "putt" like you mention. If your in the market for an aftermarket exhaust check and forums and listen to each for yourself but they all produce a similar or worse sound IMO. I love the sound so I usually drive in manual mode, but if you drive in automatic you wont hear anything....it sounds identical to stock....unless of course you slam the gas.

So yea, I'll keep enjoying the look and sound of my custom staggered quad burnt tip muffler deleted exhaust that I spent less than 300 bucks on....plus can put back to stock whenever I want cause its a 1 piece bolt on!

I don't get it, get a $50k car but then cut corners on modifications. To each their own I suppose.

Can we have a listen? I am curious of an idle sound. Ta

Search the forums, theres plenty of videos on exhaust threads...I didn't make a video. At cold start you can hear mine sound similar to the patented G35/z growl (that everyone loves) but better and after a few minutes you don't hear anything more than how it would stock.

I don't get it either...I heard the ark catback exhaust you have in person...it sounded really good!

However I and the exhaust shop owner who had it on his RC agreed that my muffler delete sounded better. But then maybe your a performance enthusiast...whats that get you...an extra 5 HP for $1600.00?

But your absolutely right...to each their own. Cheers!

Apparently your only concern is aesthetics and scene points. Cheers!

lexual_rc

LOL...you're right...you go ahead and enjoy your performance gain.
I'll wait to do some real performance mods when it actually becomes more available for this car.

*you're

lexual_rc

forum fights are interesting...

I have the ARK exhaust as well and the 6 hp are to the wheels and not the crank. I don't carry a stopwatch on me when I drive. I just enjoy the noise. At first, I honestly hated the ARK exhaust because it was so much louder than what I thought it was gonna be. But, now after several months of ownership, I love the exhaust system even though it has some slight drone on the highway. It also pops a lot on sport mode whenever the car downshifts!

As for the muffler delete, as long as you enjoy it then that's all that matters.

The bolt on exhaust system thats probably the most popular is the Ark Performance exhaust.. Not sure where you're located, sounds outside of the United States, but let me know if you're looking for one.
