There's a chap over on RRsportforum that is taking his centre silencer out today so will be good to see what improvements it makes, I'm finding the 2019 far too quiet too, is much quieter than my 2018 model!

 

I saw the video and it sounds good. I’m worried about drone, which I don’t love. But it’s supposed to be bolt on and bolt off, if needed. I might try it.

I did notice a big difference between 2017 to 2018.
You’re saying there’s a difference between 2018 and 2019?

Yes there is a massive difference, bet the 2019 is 50% quieter than the 2018 model which is very annoying!

 

I have a 2019 SVR and it sounds plenty loud but I ordered it July 2018. Are you referring to the ‘19.5 model? I just can’t imagine the 2018 can be that much louder than mine.

 

Can someone link me to the thread of the SVR without the 'silencer' please. Also, I though the 2018 and 2019 were relatively the same? Did they really make it quieter?

 

They put a GPF in the latest SVR so this is what has made it so quiet, the exhaust tips stay bright silver as hardly any carbon comes out of the exhaust due to this either.

 

At my dealer yesterday someone inferred that there will be no 2020 SVR but instead a SVAutobiography model (like the Velar) will take its place. Perhaps recent toning down of the exhaust is part of that transition process.

 

I think it affects models built after October 2018

 

I’ve just taken deliver of a 19 SVR and find it too quiet, very different to the old SVR, better in every way except sound!! Has anyone modified their exhaust yet? I don’t want drone! I know a Muffler delete can be carried out by Urban.

 

Very interesting read, it’s definitely put me off Ferrari! This is going to be a big problem. It will mean aftermarket exhausts galore! Good news for you, the USA SVR YouTube videos sound awesome, it’s obvious there is no GPF. I’m looking at modding my SVR exhaust with a muffler delete through Urban, they have done around 70 2018/19 SVR’s so far. I just can’t find anyone that’s had it done! I don’t rate the aftermarket SVR exhausts available, if Akra did one I would be in!

 

Unfortunately GPF was implemented in the US starting with 19.5 SVR, i noticed the difference immediately when I picked up my new SVR. It's loud under hard acceleration but missing that fabulous sound when driving under 3000 rpm

 

Oh no!

Has anyone compared a 2018 and 2019 SVR exhaust with a post-2019.5 one? I was just reading the below article and was wondering if there's an obvious GPF on the exhaust that can be cut off and replaced with a welded straight pipe.

Emissions regulations, the GPF and the challenges for petrol vehicles

The imminent enforcement of the new Euro and China emissions regulation has created a new set of challenges for the automotive industry. In particular, the limit established on Particulate Number has forced the introduction of the Gasoline Particulate Filter for petrol vehicles.

****! Are you going to do anything about it?!

 

I tried everything before I decided to go with the Quicksilver exhaust (removed secondary Cats, Removed mufflers, removed silencers etc)..Despite all of the exhaust mods I tried I still wasn't satisfied with the sound..In hindsight I should just purchased the QS exhaust , it sounds insane! I love it.
My advice is save yourself the time and money and just bite the bullet.

 

Is there any drone when the valves are open?? I’m not a fan of the QS tips, they would look much better as a square design.

 

I have just had the Urban exhaust mod and unplugged the valves so that they are fully open. It sounds perfect now, up there with the old SVR

 

Hi
Just been reading all these posts ref 2018 SVR, Compared with my 2017 version this 2018 is boring lol.
How much did it cost at URBAN for them to Modify if I may ask?
Thanks

 

No zero drone. Just a beautiful exhaust note through the full throttle range under acceleration . When on the highway cruising the exhaust is subtle .

 

That’s very interesting! Where are you based?

 

I have the quicksilver exhaust installed on my 2019 svr (uk spec with GPF/OPF).
It has a great sound overall, but when cruising on the motorway/highway in auto/comfort mode, it drones between approx 1500-2000rpm (worst being at 1750rpm). It's pretty annoying. I'm looking at what I can do to fix that, worst case I might go back to the OEM exhaust (thank god I kept it...)

 

That’s a shame . I’d be pissed if I spent $4k on an exhaust system only to find out it drones within an RPM range. Hopefully you get it sorted out .

Cheers
Jeff

 

does it drone even with the valves closed??

 

Hi Tesh,

So are you saying the Quick Silver svr exhaust 2015-2018 doesn't drone but there redesigned newer 2018 system does for newer models?
Sounds like you have some experience here. Thanks for the help bud

Hi, I cannot comment on the 2015-18 QS exhaust, one owner has told me it does NOT drone and he is very happy. The 2018/19- QS exhaust has valve control via Bluetooth controlled by your phone via an App. I met an SVR owner yesterday with a 2020 SVR & the QS exhaust - it sounded awesome, we went for a drive and I did NOT hear any drone. The car was driven with valves open and closed. When the valves are closed the car is very civil - a touch louder & more aggressive than stock, in fact with the valves closed it sounded like a stock SVR with the Resonator deleted - which i don't find loud at all. I loved the system, the app and I really like the round carbon tips. I placed the order yesterday, they were actually on back order so selling really well. If any one in the UK, wants to hear it - happy to meet, i'm in the Midlands - Birmingham. I also have a good QS dealer that will supply & install in Coventry - the owner of the company is the chap i met yesterday that has the QS on his SVR. I've done plenty of due diligence - spoken to multiple companies and SVR owners with the QS valvetronic exhaust and everyone seems happy but apparently the install is time consuming.

 

I knew it!!! Thanks for the advice. I have unplugged my valves and Urban have modified my exhaust by removing the Resonator. I’m very happy overall now and no drone whatsoever.

But, if Akra made a titanium exhaust for the new SVR - without a doubt I would buy one!

 

I'm based in Canada with no Urban store nearby. What does Urban do to the exhaust, muffler or res? I wanna get it done, but am afraid of getting a raspier sound, as I prefer the deep growl. Also, how much do they charge?

 

It’s poor form from Quicksilver. It makes sense because having spoken to them they wouldn’t commit that there was no drone with the valves open. They should have spent more time & R&D perfecting the system. You don’t get to the heights of Novitec, Akrapovic and Kreissieg by doing this. I have heard the build quality is hit and miss and the tail pipes are uneven!

 

You have the old SVR - zero issues on the new one with this mod. The Quick Silver for the new SVR drones whereas yours doesn’t.

 

Tesh- I just picked up a 2020 SVR.
Is this the exhaust mod you’re referring to?
I’m going to order it from Myriad . Might save myself from spending $3K with QS

 

Where are you based Damon?

 

You don’t need to remove the valves, just unplug them! 5 minute job from the boot! It’s still not loud enough so you do need the resonator delete

 

Is it possible to be removed yourself, or does it have to be lifted at a shop?

 

They just need to be unplugged from the boot. You can do it yourself, I’m not sure how but apparently it is a simple 5 minute job

 

Hi ya,

How do you find it with the res delete.
I might be picking up a 68 plate SVR in a week or two

 

Hey guys, sorry to bring up an old post. Might make sense to start a new one?
I had a weird sound coming from my exhaust, mainly on startup. Very tingy, kinda like it was a loose clamp or something. Brought it into the dealership and they said they found the issue, it was a valve on the exhaust that was getting intermittently caught? Don't know if it was the sport exhaust valve or not? Regardless, they said only way to fix solve this issue is to order and install a whole new exhaust. Which is crazy, but I guess makes sense.

My question is, how do I ensure that they order a 2018 vs a 2019+ exhaust with the fuel/gas particulate filter? I don't want the car to sound different/quieter. I've asked SA to look into it and he said it's the same as the 2018 exhaust. Short of me going into the parts department and asking. Are you guys aware of any way to check the parts? Is the GPF something that's separate from the exhaust? Hoping some of you here can give me some guidance?

 

Here is a video that shows how the valves open on the SVR exhaust. Couple ideas:

1.) drop the exhaust and rotate the valve to fully open and lock it in position?

2.) install the resonator and pipe section from a 2015-2017 SVR (around $1,000)? Part numbers are different for 2018+ so there must be changes internally.

Thank you for this!
Can I ask, how did you get the part numbers?
I want to check 2018 vs 2019+ exhaust part numbers.

My 2020 definitely is not as loud as the my18 and previous. Surprised nobody makes a bolt in Xpipe.

And my ‘18 is nowhere near as loud as my ‘16 was. I’d love to get the sound of the ‘16 in my ‘18.
