Supersprint or Scorpion

Post by G30001 » Thu Jan 10, 2019 3:35 pm

Hi All

I know Exhausts have been covered and I have searched but can't find the info I need to make a decision.

I have bought an RS4 with a standard exhaust and even just 2 weeks in the need for more noise is too much.

My budget isn't massive at the moment so unless someone is about to sell and wants to offload a JC Weldfab or alike my options are either of the above.

Has anyone got first hand ownership experience of either the Supersprint X and downpipes?
The main question is do they drone day to day when not pressing on?

Or has anyone gone for the Scorpion half system? Does this make much of a difference noise wise for the cost? (I would add downpipes later)

Thanks

What’s the cost difference for JCWELDFAB v the rest?

I think they are a good £2.5 K
Milly is £1.8K but either to quiet (Res) or too loud (non res)
Akrapovic £5k
Armytrix £3.5

All to much for me right now, dishwasher just gave up, fence fell over, new car, new tyres and Christmas have cleaned me out but the sound of the car as it is has taken the edge off the buy.

I need more noise

& supersprint & scorpion cheaper than all...

I have a JCWeldfab (came with the car) it’s a work of art to b fair & love the sound especially in Dynamic mode..

My 10 shillings worth, would be the hold on until the pennies mount up & play loud music until then

:bigwave: I've got a scorpion.

Superb quality, bought a full system, but still to fit the downpipes as the nuts are a total pain in the arse to remove.

Makes a great difference to the note, but no drone. Very pleased. Price for the full system...... £1500..... No brainer! :wink:

Nice one thanks.

I actually bought a scorpion s4 exhaust before I bought the RS4 and was impressed with the quality of it all I just wasn't sure on sound.

£1,500 where is that from cheapest I have seen is £1,650?
