Carbonman, who put the exhaust on for you? A regular muffler shop? If you don't mind me asking, how much didi you pay for the exhaust and installation? Any other mods to your engine? Thanks.

Hi,
It was installed by my local Volvo Dealer and the invoice is yet to come. The cost will be aroung 1000 euro and its worth the money!

Re: (casique)

It sounds great especially around 2000-3000 rpm and when you lift the trottle a small 'pop' in the exhaust can be heard. GREAT! listen to the WAV files on the Heico wabsite and then you will have a clue. The neat stuff is that when you drive topless you hear that racy sound even more! Louder yes but not in a cheap way!

Re: (carbonman)

Wow! Sweet..... Did you have to modify your bumper at all?

 

[carbonman]

Re: (casique)

No, it fitted perfectly and they are just a bit latger then the original T5 Volvo exhaust but no problem

Re: (carbonman)

The Heico website, says that the bumper needs to be cut. That's good news, not having to cut the bumper.

Only when you have the T5 with the twin exhaust!

Re: (carbonman)

wow. those are nice looking. i always thought the new C70 was lame until I saw these photos...

if volvo ups the power on this car...and there is aftermarket support..chips, exhaust, etc...and you could have something more on par with the S/V70R's in terms of power/weight....this would be one bad a$$ little car.
