TSL Group N backbox
 
So who's got one?

Preferably with a full decat? I'm thinking of changing my current set up. Youtube has some 'examples' on there but my computer speakers are crap so doesn't really do it justice.

Current set up is a TSL Firestorm, full 3" decat, I'm after something a little less noisy despite loving it to bits. I will be having some long trips to do in the future (motorway) so am looking for quiet(ish) cruising with loud play time:norty:

Also looking for a smaller tail pipe as well. I'm getting old and need to start being sensible:lol1:

TSL Group "N" Back Box 4" tailpipe
 
Try one of these:

TSL Group "N" Back Box 4" tailpipe

TSL MOTORSPORT | Subaru Saab Mitsubishi | parts | repair | servicing | performance tuning | UK

Bargain price and sounds burbly without being too loud. I am 38 yrs old and am not into a loud car sound but this sounds awesome!

Cheers, I'd appreciate that. I have heard a couple of clips on youtube but they are pretty awful sound quality wise.

I have been looking at the TSL website. I reckon I could sell mine on and only have to fork out a few quid for the other one. Almost sold on the idea now but if anyone else has comments?

I've also read the some thought the Group N to be too quiet:nono: maybe that was not on a full decat system though?

Hi I have a TSL group N back box but the cat is still on I think. It does have a decatted downpipe though.

The system sounds subtle when the car's being driven lightly but when you floor it it sounds meaty enough. No way near as loud as some Impreza exhausts I've heard though.

NUTTYNICK 24 May 2008 07:46 PM

That's good to hear T1000. I am used to loud exhausts, and although the firestorm sounds just like it's name, I think it's a little ott for me. The car pops and bangs nicely on over run and sometimes on up changes which always brings a smile to my face.

I'm looking at getting one now, on the hunt for second hand items first though.

I tried several combinations and ended up with a TSL Group'N
it's a nice compromise and the car is used as family transport so can't be too loud.

When you floor it though it sounds great.

Well I hope so too. I've just bought one (hopefully, sent money so we'll see if it arrives). It sounds just like what I'm after so fingers crossed. Updates to follow:)

Thanks for all your replies guys
