Exhaust Systems

[stillj20]

Hi all,
I was wondering what the best way to improve the exhaust sound in my fto. I have a standard FTO exhaust on my GPX and it sounds ok but lookin for sumtin with a bit more presence about it. Do i need to completely change the whole exhaust system (if i had the money i definitely would) or would simply changin the back box have the desired effect.
Many Thanks,
James

Try an ITG filter, and then a decat pipe, thats makes a massive difference. More of a throaty rasp of it. You could put in blueflame quads, or another type of exhaust if you wanted to really make a difference to the sound after that.

cheers mate, i mite try the itg filter and decat pipe first see how it goes, was goin to get a itg filter a while ago but settled for a pipercross, seen a couple of videos on youtube of fto's with the itg filter, sounds fairly good.

Here's mine with an Apexi then the ITG.
It might just be me but I can tell the difference...

theres definitely a difference alrite.ITG it is then. was thinkin bout replacin the intake pipe with a stainless steel one with a bigger diameter, seen a few with the ARC intake chambers, think their gone out of business though.

i have an ARC induction kit in my fto , have the intake chamber and intake box, sounds sweet . you might be lucky to find a chamber box on the net . got mine at a bargain , cheers seb

karlf (fto member) has a nice custom intake pipe made with two hks filters on the end of it. looks cool, actually saw them on couple of fto's so might have a better chance of in finding one of them

I think i seen pics of that somewhere alrite, looks fairly good, i'd say its sounds fairly awesome 2.

Deffo one of the best setups out there for the FTO , even if it looks odd. Glad you are happy with that mate.
