Hey guys,

Having a new exhaust fitted on Monday and I need to decide on the exhaust tips. Do I go for the overfinch/porsche style or supercharged style?

I had the porsche figure8 tips on my cayenne and it looked great but the supercharged ones look OEM and I think they might look a bit better.

What do you think? Aargh decisions decisions!!

Overfinch style:



Supercharged style:

 2006 '56 RRS TDV6 HSE, Java Black, Alpaca Interior, PTI, Sidesteps, 22" Stormers wrapped in 285/35/22 Toyo Proxes, Java Framed SC Grille, Java/Zambezi Side Vents, Matt Black LR3 Door Handles, Matt Black Lower Tailgate Trim, Colour coded lower body trims, Semi Smoked Taillights, Chrome Mirrors and Fog Light Bezels, Reflex Exhaust Back, Full Pentagon AutoGlass Privacy, Tasmod Sills, Clear Side Repeaters, pics in gallery!

Definately go for a set from JE Engineering with full cats fitted too.

They simply look the best and the sound is awsome.

Below is a pic of my supercharged sport with std fit system - then JE exhaust below.

I agree the JE exhausts look great . I agree they sound great . But for the TDV6, the JE exhausts do NOT have catalysts included...that's only available on the S/C.  2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE, Java/Ebony/Cherry, Privacy, Sunroof, PTI, Premium Sound, SatNav, Cold Climate, Tow kit, CarStyle coded grill and vents, Tasmods, Stormers, JE Exhaust, Autobiography badge

SC no doubt!

only judged on 'style' since I don't know (yet) the difference from a sound
prospective. the overfinch tips look a bit too 'wannabecayenne'....

cheers

Iwan - if you want to hear the sound of a JE tuned S/C - go to this thread on the forum:

http://www.rrsport.co.uk/forum/topic4615.html?highlight=je

And click on the youtube link in my post at the bottom. It is a very nice sound except for the irritating music. The JE exhaust on my TDV6 sounds nice...but not this nice!

I agree, the OF style exhaust tips are too "wannabecayenne" 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE, Java/Ebony/Cherry, Privacy, Sunroof, PTI, Premium Sound, SatNav, Cold Climate, Tow kit, CarStyle coded grill and vents, Tasmods, Stormers, JE Exhaust, Autobiography badge

The standard SC tips do need beefing up a bit, considering the type of car. MDP's JE exhausts look great and the Overfinch ones look good to I reckon.

Well, Iwan, I don't really think it makes much difference on a soon-to-be-obsolete old oil-burner! Doubt people will see them for the smoke!

between the Overfinch and SC options, I'd go Overfinch

Far from it

The JE exhaust upgrade for the TDV6 will make it sound like a V8 petrol and fool plenty of V8 owners. Looks fantastic just like MDP's. Much better looking than the OEM type and SS to boot.

Add a little tuning from JE Engineering and you'll be one happy man

JE exhaust on a TDV6...



As Josh said, sounds great too.

I have a TDV8 on order and contemplating upgrading the pipes.

I see that Overfinch and JE offer tails / tips and have fired a mail to Milltek for any products..

Are these tails / tips purely cosmetic or would they improve the V8 soundtrack?

Advice welcome

The soundtrack is good on my Supercharged - even better when mated to JE's complete system [ i'm awaiting delivery of their cats ]

As for tips [ rear boxes ] for the other models - many people on here have fitted the versions from JE available for the tdv6 + they all report the sound is more like a V8 than V6 ............. why not liase with JE Engineering direct to discuss your options for the TDV8

Tee Hee How far do you go on one wind, Josh? As far as scrounging cut price leather door cappings, maybe? The object of all JE exhaust systems is improved performance, the cosmetics being very much secondary for those who are impressed by that sort of stuff. The TDV6 system most certainly does NOT sound like a V8 of any sort, nor is it meant to.
