High Pitch Exhaust! - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

mnsayer · 09-08-2014, 01:49 AM

I have always been a fan of the high pitch exhaust note, and when I had my Lotus Exige S I found the perfect exhaust system. This system screamed and when you took your foot of the gas it crackled, unfortunately I cant seem to find anything close to that exhaust. Now that my car is has Ptunings turbo kit installed and I couldn't be happier with it, Im still searching for that perfect exhaust note.

Here is a clip of how the 4 cylinder supercharged lotus after installing the Larini Race exhaust. Scroll to 15sec... video was not made by me

So can anyone point me in the right direction when it comes to this type of exhaust?

This is the exhaust that was installed on my Lotus.

I was wondering if it would be possible to customize this exhaust to fit on the FRS ?

I think you need Equeal length header

I don't have any useful info but I'm in for more vids.

The Lotus has a smaller engine so by default it'll put out a higher exhaust tone (frequency) than the 86. No amount of changing exhaust piping will fix that. It's physics. You might be able to rig up a series of resonators to cut out lower frequencies though but that just seems kinda silly to me.

Getting a flat four to have a high pitch sound is like getting a Tuba to sound like a Clarinet.

Getting a turbo engine to sound like that will be very difficult, see the current F1 car engine note vs past year cars.

The turbo acts like a muffler/resonator and drops the tone much lower.
