England 2006 Range Rover Sport Supercharged Java Black
Valve Controlled Exhaust

Does anyone know where i can get something like this?

The one by Startech is for the 5.0.

I only have the 4.2 SC and and try as i might, i cant find anything that is "truly" valve controlled. I don't want one of those shoddy butterfly valve modifiers...

Happy to go fully custom if you guys know someone who fancies the job!

Here is the 5.0 version

I don't know of any specific ones, but if you do go down the custom route, there are some really nice universal valves. Will try to find a link for you

Here you go:

The website could do with updating, but I think there are some videos on youtube and they have a facebook page. I know they have fitted them to an RS6, and other nice vehicles.

I believe the way this works is to delete the exhaust system entirely. With The Capristo exhaust systems the gasses are still channelled through a silencer, albeit, a louder one than stock...

Im not sure headers straight to air on a RRS would sound so great! Worth exploring though, maybe mount them just before the rear silencer so you still have the gasses going through the cats and middle box (Do i have one, haven't looked yet?!).

This of course would make it a lot quieter then no exhaust yet quite a bit louder then stock

Ah ok yes, I guess it depends how/where you mount it. On the RS6 they did, I think they incorporated it into the back box? Will try to find some more info!

This seems better...



Gains on 18bhp would be great too...

Isn't that just like the pse system you can have on the 911?

That open's a valve to a link pipe past the back box's hence more noise.

I think you are right mate, Y pipe and butterfly valve with dash mounted controller. I'm happy with that, I didn't want the butterfly valve mounted in line producing back pressure when closed.

Well I'm going to do this, will post video results and if I can dyno. Not expecting anything on the dyno mind since i'll be mounting it quite far back in the system.

Aftermarket company's do a manual version IMO I don't want got be crawling under car to change it.

I really like the pse system idea as you don't always want the roar, good for sneeking home late or leaving early Rolling with laughter

The one I posted has a similar wireless key fob. If you look at the video of the rs6, I think it does just bypass the back box
