StevepGT3 Posted 21May, 2020 Report Share Posted 21May, 2020 The on/ off button is a bit of a con, press it at idle and it Opens and burbles but As soon as you move, even with it open, it closes again and reopens at 4K, which it does anyway even with it closed, if that makes sense symsy and luzzo 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sleazius Posted 21May, 2020 Report Share Posted 21May, 2020 I was going to say, because I’m sure my PSE equipped car doesn’t open till around 4000rpm. The link above confirms it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure have noticed it is quieter in that 45-75 km/hr range. Just didn't realise that meant the valve turned on/off/on, whilst the PSE was switched on the whole time.

Which it does anyway even when switched off, hence my point that it only makes extra noise at idle, which is actually a bit of a wank to be honest, I have the sharkworks center delete which may make it more obvious sleazius 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Side mufflers deleted... kept cats to keep it legal, although the stock road car cats take a caning and pop the 02 sensors in this config, so trying to find some cup headers & cats. 18 minutes ago, StevepGT3 said: you`ll grow out of it, one day, maybe. they do sound grouse when open though I hope not... and yes they sure do!

When the exhaust button (not Sport button) is off, the exhaust is quiet at all speeds. Maybe that's the difference between cars with a PSE button vs the Sport button on a GT3..?
