Do it! I thought the 360 Tubi sounded good with the cats in... You haven't heard nothing yet!

Was that after the bleeding in your ears receded!!!

IMO, apart from an NGT box with straight through pipes, this would be the best sound you could get from your 360.

Hours of fun to be had playing music with it and once you know where all the right notes are, your grin will ache your face....Oh and you will love the art of scaring the living hell outta every thing & person...Awesome, race car sound, do it

What does that do to the noise volume inside the car guys? With just the tubi it has had little impact (a good thing for me as I tend to do some 2-3hr stints on the motorway) But I must admit I miss the pops & bangs on the over-run from my cerbera !

I think,Bebbesen correct me on this if wrong,that once the exhaust has bedded in you will get a few pops and bangs.

Not as many as the full decat but you'll get some never the less.

As for the noise,I personally think you'll get used to it.

I was doing 12 hour stints in the summer in a b@stard loud decat 348,no dramas or headaches.Just a matter of getting used to it.

Not much more in the cabin, obviously with the windows up that is ...I was driving alongside a high wall with the window down the other day, say doing 50 at about 3.5/4k Rpm and the noise coming off the wall made me go a bit deaf in that ear for a litle while...Trust me, on a long hard run when the pipes are bed in nicely, you can make this baby not just pop but cause a massive explosion...I did this once under a bridge, nice smooth pace...enter bridge...nice quick burst on the gas and release very quickly...people actually ducked and fell to the floor.

I miss the Cerbera pops and bangs too but I guarantee, this is way way better sounding!!!

I have never heard a car sound like Ts decatted 360 - pure race car. Awesome. Pops, bangs, explosions - the lot!

I can't hear my catted tubi when driving behind T!

I had a "sports exhaust" on my Cerby and it sounded fantastic......except after a couple of years it became too much for me, just too loud and pretty droney on the motorway. Bunged an Eisenmann rear box on my M3 and again sounded awesome, but when I took it off just before I sold the car, I was surprised by how civilized the car was!

Don't mean to put anyone off but I probably won't be fitting a Tubi to my Maserati as a result. ...(it is tempting though)

I'll second that - GI_Jnr's decatted tubi'd 360 is frankly bonkers - most awesome sounding road car I've ever heard.

I do this all the time!

Full with a de-cat, once it's bed in nicely, full throttle acceleration to anywhere over 7k rpm then a hard change releases an almightly backfire!

I swear it flames...

do it! do it! do it!

Go on Tuan!!...don't you just love it man...Waiting for someone to follow in the dark and see some flames...BTW, there's a few of us heading to Denmark soon and there's a 2 mile tunnel outside Hamburg to enter first, maybe that's a good place to try seeing it
