3.3TT Quicksilver Exhaust Systems

[SKStinger]

Yea idk guys. Is it even louder than stock? The bov over power the exhaust.

Barely. Like I said above, it sounds similar to the stock exhaust with aftermarket midpipes. This is one exhaust where I think you definitely will want catless midpipes to maximize the sound.

+1 for very interested. Anxious to read & hear more reviews.

I've been looking for a system that will put a smile on my face when I'm driving hard and when I remote start it, that will let others outside the car know I'm not stock, but that I can't hear on the interstate.

Might this be the one?!

 

[Love4steel]

Agreed. I warm up my car at 4am in the winters. My neighbors wouldn’t be happy if the idle wakes them up!

 

[Toddasaurus]

Sounds louder, more growly and better than stock to me. Also, I have a Magnaflow exhaust and it isn't as loud as the Quicksilver, nor does it have the same growl, and I even have ARK midpipes. If I were to do it again I'd definitely get the Quicksilver exhaust + mid combo. Sounds perfect.

 

[RUFFSTUFF]

Well at least they don't lie and promise unrealistic hp gains...

 

[Puckhead]

I’m interested in the exhaust as well. I emailed them to see how many might be left from the first run of 17.

 

[StungnTn]

I have the full enchilada. Here are three clips I recorded for Quicksilver, Xforce, and Quicksilver.

 

[narsnail]

Awesome video, thank you. That is with stock down pipes correct?

 

[Love4steel]

Quicksilver FTW

 

[Love4steel]

I want to order it right now but I’d be sick if while it’s in route somebody reports the it’s worst drone they’ve ever experienced lmao

 

[StungnTn]

No that was with Quicksilver downpipes.

 

[mhal8876]

No that was with Quicksilver downpipes.

How was it inside the cabin? that's the main thing our concern about.

 

[RUFFSTUFF]

<--- Perplexed by people who want a loud exhaust but don't want to hear it.

Okay, I took my exhaust for a drive in sport and in comfort down a highway that has rolling hills. This highway for me is the worst for drone due to the high speeds and long climbs. The results were not what I expected. Around town the drone that I experience is almost non-existent. However, on the highway it was more than I expected in comparison to what I had experienced earlier around town. In my opinion and probably worse than my XForce exhaust that I had previously. I hesitate to say that because when I first received my Xforce exhaust the drone was almost unbearable, I expect that after I have this exhaust for a while it will be perfect. The exhaust reminds me of driving a V8 as it has a low rumble to it and seems to be fairly quiet unless I get on it. This exhaust is deeper in tone than what I had previously.

I measured my car exhaust from the cabin while I drove it between 65-75 on a 20 minute stretch of rolling hills and this is what I received:

Sport
Average: 67.9db Max: 80db

Comfort
Average: 69.4db Max: 82db

As you can see the lower RPM in comfort mode resulted in more cabin noise at the same speed. This can almost be completely attributed to drone while going up hills at low rpm.

Compare this to my Alfa Romeo that I drove on the same stretch for a comparison. Keep in mind that the 4C has no muffler and is pretty loud.

Average: 72db Max: 82db

The difference is that in no point did I hate how my 4C sounded, but I can't say that for the Stinger.

I was hoping this exhaust would be the panacea that I had been looking for, unfortunately it is not. However, this exhaust does has its own character that is distinct from the other exhausts that I have heard that sound trumpet like. This really saddens me because my 4C exhaust issues were fixed with by QuickSilver and with the Stinger it was not.

Here's a video if anyone is interested to hear what 4C with a quicksilver exhaust sounds like:

What about with stock downpipes? You think it would still drone?

What about with stock downpipes? You think it would still drone?

probably not.

 

[General_Vodka]

probably not.

How would you recommend the downpipes by themselves?

 

[Love4steel]

The cat back only with connected exhaust tips may be ok as well

 

[StungnTn]

How would you recommend the downpipes by themselves?

Definitely are the best option on the market in my opinion.

Thank you for the comparison of the three!
While we can hear the characteristics of each exhaust, it's hard to judge the sound level. Would you be able to put them on a scale?

I think people say Stock is 1, Ark is about 8, and Borla is about 10. Where would you day Quicksilver fits into? How about Xforce?

Also, do you get any cabin vibrations at all, especially in the drony rpm range?

Any performance difference in between the three?

Thanks!
