V12V sports exhausts
Discussion
which do you all reckon sounds the best?
I know youtube vids aren't much to go on, but in the absence of anything better, it will have to do for now.

Quicksilver titanium:

Powercraft:

If I've missed any obvious contenders do please feel free to post clips or links.
In the event of a tie I fancy the powercraft one for the switchability.

added for posterity, however, considering the likely price, it's disappointing that Larini haven't bothered to film their V12 Vantage pipes in action. Quite hard to buy a set without hearing it first.

Having now listened to them all, my money would go on the Quicksilver Supersport.
I agree - Quicksilver Supersport seems best to me too. Its only £1780 too, so much cheaper than some of the alternatives.Lots more videos to listen to if you click on the DBS V12 Supersports link on this page - its the same engine / tune so must sound the same...

Its quite a lot louder too! The Quicksilver Sports exhaust lifts the sound from 96db (OEM) to 98db, The supersports lifts the sound level to 102db! Being a logrithmic scale 102db is considerably louder than 96db.

I knew the logarithmic scale means that small increases in dB equals significant increases in sound, but I didn't realize that a 10dB increase is twice as loud! Rex Racer said:

Okay, just going by what the link said. Wait, there is incorrect information out on the Internet???
I think technically both are correct. As I understand it, in pure volume terms 3db is twice as loud, but to the human ear we percieve 10db as being twice as loud.try this article for more info http://www.sengpielaudio.com/calculator-levelchang...
A few more videos have surfaced recently
another from RSC

IMO it sounds the best - love the high pitch scream and growling low end at lower revs.
If one could be fitted with a muffler on a switch - it'd be fantastic.
Just need to find my V12V now!! The one I had my eye on in Cambridge got sold 1 hour before I went to test drive it
