Elite RR exhaust noise
Couldn't get my video uploaded to you tube, taking forever so used Flicker.
This is my Elite RR exhaust, just one center box and rear non active, Loud sound and this was taken on my wife's Samsung mini from inside, outside noise is unreal. will get another loaded soon.

The sound it one of the loudest and not just because it's mine the nicest I've heard. On a calm day it can be heard a mile and a half away, there's a lovely crackle and popping on down shift and a real jaguar roar. There was a f-type on the run and as I love there noise mine could easily cover its noise to the owners amazement.

That sounds excellent
I'm considering the same rear box for my car, also a 4.2 08 XKR. I already have the Spires stage 1 mid section with no mid silencers at all so I guess mine would end up a touch louder than yours. Questions are - is it possible to be quiet at all? Like using just gentle acceleration and on cruising? I'd still like to be able to drive about town without attracting too much attention.
Also, any cabin drone when cruising on motorway etc.?

Driving around town just using a bit off power isn't to bad, not way louder but just nice, its when you apply the power in a sudden bust or quickly then the cat roars, i never use the radio always the window down and paddle shifting,. If your worried about anyone complaining about the noise you'll be to far gone to care

Yea that would be the thing to do, look forward to here the reports back and the noise when you get sorted. Going to get a gopro hero 4 in the next few weeks so hope to get some rear exhaust noise videoed.

Hey, any chance you could post a couple of pics of your exhaust tips, mainly one from the side and one from above? Slightly concerned that some of the photos on their website look like they're slash cut to angle out towards the sides of the car, not just slightly inwards from the top as per standard.

Hope it goes well for you, and you get the noise your after, don't forget to get your car tuned when you fit it, has to be done for full effect. When you fit a different system the back flow changes so it has to suit you engine, any good tuning shop should do it and maybe a remap which would do the proper job, i got this done and pulley upgrade. The difference is unreal, it is neck wrenching the power difference. Supercharger has to come off to fit the 2.5lb pulley properly, power difference means i can stick to any 5.0 xkr's bumper and have done it.
