[2002Scoob]

Not to hijack the thread, I have one of those as well (Abarth Exhaust NOS) hanging in my attic.  Curious as to how you like it, sound, performance (if any)???? I know one thing for sure they are built like a freegin Tiger tank, super stout,definitely a few pounds more than a standard system - just based on the girth of the center resonator.

I really like it. Like ya said, built like a tank. 

 

Sound is pretty mild, actually. At idle and low RPM it's relatively quite, with a very slight burble out back. Once you start to sweet up into the RPM's it's got a little bit of volume over stock, and sounds lovely in tunnels. Like Downhillwolf said, inside the cabin its rather quiet, but sounds lightly sporty out back.

 

It's funny, once some heat gets into it, its a little more throating and aggressive, but always has a touch of raspiness the revs build.

I've always wanted the Abarth Exhaust system. It's just not in my budget. For those looking, it appears you can get them new from Europe.

Looks like a Lucas Development slide.  Only have seen photo's.  Seems like it is well designed, and given the location of the injectors a-la- tii it probably works pretty well in terms of low end throttle.  Not a large market for stuff like this so its nice that someone makes this stuff.
