Today is a good day i've just fitted a Scoobysport down pipe and centre section to my sti 5 ra to add to the back box which i already thought sounded great but nothing quite prepares you for the awesome instant turbo pick up and the glorious sound (no this is not an advert for Scoobysport) simply my appreciation of a great purpose made system which sounds particularly gorgeous through the mersey tunnel with all 4 windows down addictive.

impreza drivers boring and **** ( autocar )
never oh that reminds me i must go out and polish the centre section at 3 am this morning.

Regards

Tim

Been there, do it frequently.....

....ask the driver of the stoopid old Merc that overtook me on the inside in the Dartford tunnel a couple of weeks ago - let him get ahead, dropped it into third and went past him at 7000rpm - I think he thought the tunnel was caving in...

Nice !!!

makes wearing a lid at track days a sin thinking of drilling holes in the sides or piping the exhaust into the car no maybee not

that my sence of humour mate i would have love to see the old guys face it must have been a picture

got a price for a full scooby sport system today £613 is it worth it or would i be better getting something else,or just part of the system

Dougie - worth every penny, IMHO.

General concensus seems to be that back box is good, BB + centre pipe is better, but adding the D/P is what makes all the difference. I can't say, cos had all three done together.....

Can say however the end result is brilliant!!

cheers for the info dave t s

It sounds better than the WRC.....where are you on Planet Earth - you should find an owner locally and have a listen...

Back on the original subject....Come over here to the TransUrban tunnel in Melbourne.

Wonder how she'll sound under water.

Dougie

sounds just like WRC car and if you want to
hear it providing you live within 100 miles radius from me just stick your head out the window at 9.30 and i'll give it some revs

Got to say that I have a Micron race pipe on my GSXR & the howl it makes as you give it 10,000+ RPM through the N'bound Blackwall Tunnel is an aural orgasam

Heathrow airport has a couple a good tunnels! Their nice and small, one of them is about 15ft wide and about 8ft high. ............nice and loud

The full SS system is the boiiocks

Has anyone fitted a Scoobysport dp to a Magnex Centre & bb? as a dp will be the next addition!

The Scoobysport bb deff. has a different sound to the Magnex.

Straight through systems on a normal scoob sound completely different (better IMO!) to a WRC car, as we found out when we went testing with Marko Martin in N. Wales last October.

The headers are a different setup on the WRC. The same, I think, as Pete Croney's RA and I followed that down the road a few months ago, it sounds totally different - the exhaust note is much more of a rasp.

You're spot on there m8 - she just won't go on the bike no more. Something to do with her handbag

That's why I've always got the single seat option on (that & no friends )

However, I have great hopes for my daughter being a petrol head - started with chanting "Subaru Subaru" at her aged 2 days

Scoobsport & tunnels, very bad

Last weekend in my friends S2000, roof down, in a long tunnel, 9000rpm, woaaaahaaa

As we slowed down could hear something 'bloody fast' sounding very much like an F1 car hurtling up behind us.....Ferrari 360 driven by a nutter!

2-3 mile tunnel under central Lyon. Not in a Scooby though, my Land Rover!! (Jon Eales 3.9, 7000 revs in 3rd, 85mph or so) We have an annual pilgrimage every May. Sadly the vehicle is modified and I can only find space for 1 small silencer. Shame that.
