Saw one of these for the AE111 on eBay, they look smart...and seem like they wouldn't be stupidly loud as they have a few nifty features to reduce noise.

Anyone got one, or know much about them? Good gains? They seem pretty expensive at over £500GBP. :blink:

I have one! lol good quality and fits well, my system consists of a muffler hotdog then finished with a cannon style muffler, reasonable sound levels (legal) but sounds great when you're revving it, doesn't sound tinny. and easy to install and fits great.

I heard it has something to reduce the noise, some kind of hole somewhere?

Thing is, I love the look of the exhaust, and it seems good quality, but I wouldn't want it to be really REALLY quiet ya know, I want it to sound like it's going some still!

It sounds much nicer than stock I take it?

Yeah that would be awesome, you could always post it up in the showroom too, it'd be cool to get a collection of everyones exhausts etc. to help people choose what they want in the future! :)

I really do like the look of this system though.

peter you using a cat or nah?
If its a cat back (bolts to the cat) and you ditch the cat you will have the 3000rpm tinny spot, can be fixed with a small hotdog were the cat used to be.

Power wise wouldn't it be more beneficial to keep the piping all the same diameter throughout 'till you get to the back box though?

Is the tinny noise really bad? What 'causes it exactly?

I love the tinny raspy sound. Exhaust doesnt flow in one smooth stream it flows in pulses. The standard manifold has forks in it to reduce these pulses but you still get it with a decat

my exhaust doesn't sound tinny at all (hope to have a sound clip up soon) doesn't get to drony on the highway/freeway either, high in the revs it has a nice crisp sound doesn't sound like you've just shoved a huge muffler on your mum's pulsar :lol: :lol: :lol: it really has a race sound to it.

wether its a levin or trueno as long as its an AE-111 with the 4AGE engine it will fit.
if its a corolla AE111 then it might not since i think the chassis are different lengths and enging mountings

I found the HKS Silent Hi-Power tends to drone somewhat spoiling what would otherwise be a nice exhaust for the AE111.

Probably why I'm keeping my FGK Power Getter than swapping with my other mate for the HKS Catback...
