I hope it is ok to advertise here?
Yep I'm interested, how much delivered to Hastings. 0212285155

Has anyone just installed the twin exhaust tips on the P400 standard exhaust. I see them advertised for @ 250 on eBay and Amazon. I would like to see what they look like in the wild.

you are completely correct on the higher flow and when i did have my miltek on my p400 i could definitely feel a difference.

the muffler is highly restrictive

a good exhaust system should not have drone. I have had a miltek on both a p400 and v8. without resonators there is a lot of drone.

Currently my v8 with milltek with resonators has a slight resonance which doesn’t last for long. wouldn’t call it drone at all. car sounds amazing now.

But I also wouldn’t want to ruin the “comfort” of the vehicle with extraneous exhaust drone in the cabin. Wouldn’t resonators help with that?

Hey, I have those tips on my car. Despite the hefty price ($200), they're actually really good quality. They came with clamps but I got them welded for a cleaner look + security. They're beefier than the v8 oem quad tips. I love them, really improves the looks. Hope this helped.

That does look pretty good! Too bad we don’t really have any options for exhausts for the P400 to go with that look though… 😞

Looks like the quicksilver exhaust is out. Anyone going for it? Looks and sounds great to me. Like that you can tone it down on longer rides.

We do a custom stainless exhaust in house. Just a piece of advice when choosing muffler(s). Most, if not all, aftermarket exhaust utilizes "straight thru" design designrs. These offer the best performance gains but are the loudest and have the most drone. Almost every aftermarket muffler is this type of design. No actual baffling like oem mufflers have. Also, turbo engines do not have the best un muffled tone, so proper muffler choice is very important. There is a reason that the stock muffler is so big. I do not suggest deleting the muffler completely on the p300 or p400. The v8 might be the only delete contender, but i just do not like an open exhaust on almost anything. We use "turbo style" mufflers in our exhaust to get the best balance of clearance, tone and performance. I un one of these mufflers on my p300 and i wish i had 2 like this p400. I just dont like how the stock mudfler is visible from the rear of the vehicle. Hope this helps.

how much does your system cost? Also, what is the horsepower/torque gain on a P400?
