250 Exhaust options

  1. Hi all!

    Picked up my 250 a month back and love it!
    Only thing is the noise :/

    I've watched loads of videos of midbox chop 250's on you tube but I think the back box chop would be a better option. Only thing is I can't find any videos of 250's with the back box chopped I can only find 265's can anyone post a video or give me a link to what it sounds like please! Opinions of people who have done it will be great to! :smile:

    Also if anyone has videos of a 250 non resonated scorpion would be great too! I'd go for either or atm!
     
  2. 265 with a chop will sound the same
     
  3. I've had both the back box chop and currently the non res Scorpion. For noise the back box chop is louder.
     
  4. Cheers for the replies guys, why did you change to the scorpion Ben??? And which out the two is better for cabin noise and pops/bangs???
     
  5. Just wanted a full stainless system for the performance benefits, thought a simple box chop was a little half arsed for the spec I wanted.

    Either way the box chop was louder and popped more. I'd say the Scorpion sounds like an OEM sporty car, how it should have come from Renault. The box chop is much more modified car sound.
     
  6. That's fair enough tbf, il be going stage 1 once my warranty runs out from Renault so it might be the better option to go for a scorpion!
     
  7. get both the middle and backbox chop :cool:
     
  8. Don't forget the decat :wink:
     
  9. Haha we will see! might go for the back box chop short term and decide if I want to scorpion further down the line :smile: unless one comes up at a good price
     
  10. Hey Ben, you selling that exhaust too? :-)
     
  11. Ben do you have the back box chop pipe still? I tried sending you a pm yesterday but your inbox is full :smile:
     
  12. Whats the standard exhaust size 2.25" or 2.5"?

    I think I'm going to have the mid section removed I think, need to buy a length of stainless steel pipe :tongueout: Dosn't sound much diffrent from these aftermarket exhausts
     
  13. I'm holding out for the akrapovic, warranty is up in Feb then I'm.going nuts
     
  14. Wonder how much the Akro with be though, I bet they want to charge more than the Clio one and that's over a grand.
     
  15. Well, the Clio was a special where the engineering is already done for it to be fitted to the 275. I'm praying they see sense and it is around the same
