Can anyone help me with information on Elise cup 220/250 exhaust upgrade, I have a new cup 250 and really disappointed with the sound of the exhaust, looking at larini and 2bular upgrades, can anyone tell me if they offer a big improvement

I have a 220 Cup and was also disappointed with the standard car sound.

I went for a 7" 2Bular, I'm happy with how it sounds, much more ion line with the spirit of the car. 2Bular customer service not great tho.

Thanks for the info Chris, I think the standard lotus exhaust is 8" which I think looks great, shame about the noise it makes, do's the 7" look ok with it being a bit smaller, or can you not see the difference?

I may have the wrong end of the stick here but doesn't the 7" / 8" relate to the size of the silencer box rather than the tailpipe?

Btw iI'm saving up for a 2bular for my S Cup beer

It is the silencer size I've had a six and eight on my sprint 260 and both have same size tail pipe

Thanks for the information sprint, do anyone now where there is any video clips with 220/250 2buler exhaust, would be nice to hear the sound of the silencer before I purchase one?

No did not no there was one thanks for the info, I used to have to have a yellow sprint, sold it and it got shipped to Japan, it was the car lotus used in its promo pics with the original sprint next to it, had a stage 3 exhaust fitted to it sounded great

I've got a 7" 2bular on order for my 220 Cup. No idea when it'll arrive, but these things can't be rushed!......

Got a full system for my 2-11. Have to say I've seen a lot of welding in my time and these are put together the best by a country mile. Comms and delivery promises need to be sorted but worth waiting for quality.
