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. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNpf52uChYQ"]Lotus Larini Exhaust - YouTube[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBbf35gf3GQ"]06 MX5 2.0 sport RC with full Larini exhaust system - YouTube[/ame] Thoughts? |

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.

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. |
