it was a non turbo 998 then on the 1293 turbo ( my first turbo engine) i would run a single box with turbo its quite suprising how much sound they take from the exhaust, infact i have run with no silencers and a turbo, it was fairly civilised Yes i moved to the darkside |

It is so much quieter than my 1275 N/A which has a 1 3/4 " maniflow system. Many people have said it is the quietest mini they've heard. The frequency of it is very low so on a motorway cruise you do get a bit of a drone but the exhaust noise is easily dwarfed by the turbo whine and induction noise. I'd recommend it. |

I find with turbos the intake noise is almost zero compared to a NA with a large stack or trumpet.

So to conclude, don't fit a backbox, fit a turbo instead. Edited by bennyy on 1st Jun, 2012. Audi s4 b5 - 470bhp & 486ft lbs
