Is this the rapture? Or a diff exhaust

Matt23 05 February 2012 10:00 PM

Its basically a straight though back section of the exhaust, a pipe with a 4" slash tip.

Matt23 05 February 2012 11:20 PM

Sorry just noticed the extreme bit. My bad.

Matt23 06 February 2012 12:04 PM

I have a normal afterburner on mine as it is. I just wanted something louder for when we
Do tunnel runs really.

Thanks for the input guys

i have some sort of hybrid on mine, do they make the vortex afterburner extreme in 2.5 inch bore, i have a race tube but it has the vortex tip on the end exactly the same as an afterburner, i thought it was an extreme, but its 2.5 bore? unless its a hayward and scott/vortex custom, non the less, it IS extreme. lol!

Not anymore mate ,it is definetley an afterburner extreme and it used to be advertised on the web page below :Suspiciou :
http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog...hp?cPath=24_52

Maybe scoobyworld stopped making it as they did state it was not for road use :nono:. Must be mega loud as my vortex is a loud exhaust in its own right.
:norty:

Matt23 06 February 2012 10:37 PM

Well I'm going to keep an eye out for 1 so if anybody knows of 1 for sale please let
Me know.

Thanks.

Give them a ring :) although why it's called a vortex when it's the lack of a vortex that's responsible for it being so fookin loud! :lol1:

Hi mate it was not called the vortex, its title was afterburner extreme,and it was simply a straight through pipe with no baffles whatsoever :cuckoo:,it was available in 2.5' or 3' :eek:

53 06 February 2012 10:58 PM

Ah cool :) I had a cobra racetube and now a normal vortex which is all you need tbh. Racetube was great for the ESC Tunnel Run but you are on constant watch for noise police :(

Same here. I was running a de-resonated Race-Tube catback and it was just too much on the motorway. Even with a standard downpipe it was 85-90dB inside the car :eek: My baby boys hearing is worth more than impressing some chavs with the most ridiculous exhaust available on the market. :thumb:
