Hi guys wanna get a new exhaust.
Looking at the quad from teddy, looks stunning. but dont know if i can justify £600+ on an exhaust.
Want your feedback on this if ya can.
I could just get a ACS tip for just over £100???

Is the quad REALLY worth it???

From what ive heard, quads are very loud. If your just after looks then go for the ACS tips or just a twin exit backbox. What kinda quad is it, some require a new rear bumper too.

quad exhaust on a 328 will require some more money to customize the rear right?

*Edit* lee beat me to it :cool:

Defo' dont want it TO loud!!! had that in the past! not again.
Didn't think about the rear - have to modify rear bumper - more money.
Defo' leaning towards a tip or just a new twin back box.

quad will be loud for sure, even with the standard noise setting just imagine doubling the noise level

An OEM quad would require new bumper and underside mods (loose part of spare wheel well, etc)

I reckon a nice ACS twin mother :D

I would go for a proper twin exit backbox. With a tip, you'll always be looking back wishing you've do it properly the first time round. It has happened many times ;)

You've made the right choice going for a proper backbox. You would have regretted it (I'm pretty sure). Get a decent twin exit backbox (Eisenmann/ACS/etc) and you will not be disappointed. I am deffo one of the more fussy peeps on here but the noise produced by my custom Eisenmann is music to my ears. Everyone I know prefers the sound of the Eisenmann over stock (even my wife, and that is saying something :cool: ).
