Default Ferrita exhaust.

These Swedish made exhausts are well designed and made by a company that has their own in-house rolling road. Being made principally for the Nordic markets they have to comply with very strict local regulations concerning noise.

Additionally I give a lifetime warranty on the fabric of the system as long as the original purchaser still owns the vehicle to which it was first fitted.

Regards, Don.

PS you can check Ferrita at their website www.ferrita.se

No, quite the contrary....for that price you get a well made item every component of which has been designed and made to form a part of the whole, the final development having been carried out on Ferrita's in-house rolling road, these have been made in volume since the launch of the XC 90, they carry a valuable warranty and they simply cannot be compared with something made up on the spot from a limited stock of components kept on the shelf to make up something on the day.

Hi,
Thought i would post a couple of quick pics, they are not very good but give you an idea.
I will also try and post a video of the sound.

For those worried about sounding loud..don't. The sound is hardly any different with diesels, only change is a slightly deeper boom on start and low revs which sounds good.

MIJ were excellent and the price was the same as quoted with whichever tailpipes i chose which i thought was very good.

I picked the twin pipes as you can see but they had a nice big oval that good too.

As it was :



And Now



and
