Hi everybody,

I know there are many topics that deal with this issue but I prefer to create a new.


I've recently baught a TVR S1. the car is fantastic but the exhaust is too noisy for my use.
it's a cherry bomb exhaust.

too noisy on long trip in the mountains. I went to Como Lake and the journey through the Alps Mountains but the trip was tiring.

I would like an exhaust near from the origin, what are the best options for you?

here's what I found:

I saw this video, the sound is superb (like a V8) but I did not realize the noise level. Is it too noisy?

I found Nick staring longingly at that, I think he likes the exhaust. Are you selling the exhaust off?

I know Ray who owned the car before Ed who you bought it from fitted those cherry bombs on the back - to quieten it down!
He said it was unbelievably loud before - he thought the centre box had the pipes and wadding removed.
It might be worth opening up the centre box to see if you could re-instate it?

ok, thank you.

it's this car.

I think too that the central box has a problem.

ago as the unpleasant noise of a metal plate vibration that covers standard noise.

Well, as expected I miss the car a LOT.

Credit to it's new owner Simon, who's 1st drive was a mighty 750 mile journey home, almost without stop. TVRs unreliable? Pah!

Hi,

I'm searching a new exhaust (like the original).


Do you know the (original) exhaust dimensions ?

thank you.

The one left here is the original spec for S1, there was one on ebay recently (I'm sure posted from a regular contributor to this site?). Not cheap!

I've got an S1 and I love the exhaust (baffles have been renewed) but I alos have a birt of a tinny rattle at 4000 revs. Depending on my mood ! change gear or rev through it!
