Question

Can anyone re-arrange the exhaust types into the corresponding noise levels so that I can decide on a preferred type?

Scoobysport std.
TSL Firestorm
Scoobyworld Afterburner
Blitz Nur Spec.
HKS Super dragger.
HKS Hiper muffler.

Cheers dudes.

Err, not too sure about a load of those, but the Drager would be the quietest, and probably the firestorm the loudest... I know the Afterburner, but only a modded 3" so couldn't really comment. Standard scoobysport somewhat louder than the Drager, but not as loud as the rest.
It all depends on what you find loud as well - some drone more than others, and that depends on what downpipe they're running through
What are you 'after'?

I haven't heard the firestorm, but would be bloody amazed if it is louder than the nur.

hi

we conducted sound level tests on all of our exhausts and the results are listed alongside each product in the Afterburner range.

hope this helps. If you need any further info please drop us an email.
