Taitec exhaust

[mjames75]

Does anyone have a taitec exhaust? Am considering an aftermarket exhaust and seems to be the only one available, anyone have one fitted that I can get a ride in to see what it sounds like?

Cheers,

Mike

Pride V2 quad is available and sounds the nuts.
I've had mine on for about 2 years, no droning noises and fit and finish second to none.
Will set you back about £1200 but well worth it in my opinion after checking out all the rest on you tube through a decent av speaker set up.
Check this out.

There is a Pride Lightweight version also. Its basically the same as the Taitec GTLW but with a newer design of muffler with more dense packing that reduces the drone.
I have just bought one of those and it looks great. Can't wait for the winter to end

The prices on the Homepage are not always right. I paid a little less for my Pride LW.

Mark, who is selling those is a really nice guy.

Depends what you are after and how much noise you want, there is always the Zero Drone I have made for others.

You will need to sort out the adaptor pipes for the application on NA2 models when it comes to most of the aftermarket exhaust including the ones from Taitec.
Just be careful with the exh pipe diameter as you don't want to slow down the flow speed too much for NA application.

Pride also has the adapter pipes to make the NA1 type exhaust fit the NA2 for just $110


That's my Pride LW with Pride 300 cell highflow cats and adapters.

Its 2.25" ID or 57mm in non cowboy size

Stuff will go on my 92 with headers from a 99 NA2

We had a get together about 6 years ago to do a comparison of Tubi, Taitec, Larini and stock NA2. The video quality is deliberately rubbish (reg plate obfuscation ) but the sound was preserved - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vq-zx1ZwgRU.

Also, the previous owner put a Taitec GTLW on this car, IIRC - always sounded the business, if a bit loud... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOD0q282AAg

Thanks all,

I have a tubi on my red nsx which sounds great, would love a larini too but these are not available anymore.

I love the induction noise as standard, just feel an exhaust would add to the supercar feel, especially on startup....funny when people stabd there waiting for you to start the car!

Most NSX exhausts are 'catback' systems. But another variable are the cats themselves (and I guess the same goes for headers but mine are OEM). I bought an Advance titanium exhaust and to be honest, I was a bit disappointed with OEM cats. It was just a bit thin and weedy - and I had a drone at 2-2,500rpm which was a bit of a pain.

But I then added some hi-flow cats and it's now all I wanted it to be - deeper, meaner and no drone. My car is a LEV model so I had to do a bit of messing around with O2 sensor positions but I think I am there now. There are a couple of non-scientific sound clips on this thread: http://www.nsxcb.co.uk/showthread.ph...ock-quot/page5

Once again if you are after a no drone and "exotic" sounds whilst still been able to hear induction, Zero Drone is the one. Larini was the dronemeister.
