Morning mate!! Thanks for the alert, lol!! I lost track of this thread and didn’t realise you’d replied!! Anyhoo…..
Yes, stock hangers mate. What’s the difference with COBB ones?? Are they softer/more flexible or firmer?? I thought the stock ones were pretty firm.
As for drone, it’s almost non-existent with my driving style and location, although there is a long uphill stretch on the A9 south of Inverness which if taken in 6th gear with light throttle at around 70mph I notice some. Simple fix is to drop down a gear or 2 to raise the RPM. Other than that I’ve no complaints!!
Exhaust Valve Delete Plug – Funny you ask as I just fitted this on Thursday when I got home from work. Reason I fitted the delete Plug was each time I come home after 3 weeks Offshore and collect my RS from the long stay car park my Valve is stuck shut!! As you know this results in Drive Mode Selection being unavailable and the N/S Tailpipe Valve being stuck shut, resulting in very little Exhaust noise, not good in my opinion. Usually a quick chap on the Valve does the trick but the last couple of times that hasn’t worked!! So I removed the Tailpipe section and removed the Solenoid to free the Valve off. I then decided to leave the solenoid off and the Valve in the open position. You would expect this would work fine as the Solenoid can do it’s Self-Test on start up which allows me to select Drive Modes and my Valve is open all the time, which I like!! But NO… with the solenoid secured to the underside of the car and still connected electrically (just not bolted to the Valve) as soon as I started the vehicle I got the Drive Mode Selection Unavailable error!! I found this strange and actually thought I had a wiring fault at the connector plug but decided to order the Delete Plug first and try that. Worked a treat!! So I have the Valve open all the time which I think does make it sound better, love the noise from the REMUS, baring in mind I’m running Litchfield Stage 2 which does increase the Pops n Bangs a bit, full Drive Mode Selection and next time my car is left in Aberdeen for 3 weeks I know I can jump straight into it and all shall be well. Once I source a grommet I’ll pull the wire through into the boot and just have the Solenoid inside rather than cable tied to the underside of the car. I’ll give it another week or so to decide and if I’m completely happy with it I think I’ll enquire about a non-valved section of pipe from Remus and completely do away with the Valve.
Tailpipe Tips – Reason I enquired about your choice was because I went for the brushed Stainless and if left untouched can show some surface corrosion spots over time. First time I noticed this I was far from impressed but it cleans up perfect with some steel wool and very little effort.
Apologies for the tardiness of the reply mate, hope this info helps?? ??.
Cheers, Marc.
