Larini Exhausts?
 
Larini used to make an exhaust for the MX-5. For whatever reason they got out of the game but they continue to make exhaust for a lot of supercars but also the likes of the lotus elise. I've always like the sound of their exhausts for 4 cyc engines and with the popularity of our cars around the globe they might give us a shot if we indicated enough interest.

Here are a couple of vids to wet your whistle.

Thoughts?

I loved their exhaust and sport cat on my Exige S. Didn't drone at all.

Not feeling the sound

I really like the sound of these systems :) Hopefully we see something for our cars :)

Edit: Actually, looking again, I'd bet GOOD money that the system on that Elise could be adapted to our cars pretty easily. The muffler and tip layout is perfect, and the slip connectors just might have enough room to make it all work...

To be honest, that is probably the closet to my dream sound. Dream sound being GT3 RS.

I'm liking it.

I know this way to well :P

Just waiting for the toyota engine ones to get to the right price, really dont want a Rover K one.

That one is pretty cheap, but rather an aust delivered...

mebbe the next car ;) but maybe it will be a Evora.

If you don't dig the sound that is fine as there are a LOT of options to choose from. If you like the sound please sound off here. I emailed Larini this morning. Perhaps we can get some of our UK counterparts to do the same.

I'm sorry if this makes you want a Lotus. I wanted one too but this car is a happy compromise.
