Hi all,
Just got my self an rcz 156 2010 but on acceleration I don't get that roar are all rcz'ds meant to give that or is it from a certain year and if it's meant to do it any ideas why not.

Cheers

Roar? Only boy racers and Americans like stupidly loud exhausts. Supercars and proper sports cars should accelerate like shit off a shovel but with very little sound. That's real class. :thumbup:

Hi ,
https://youtu.be/KTXKr-C0TzI this is the noise which I have read that the rcz has some sort of special box in engine bay that helps with making this sound mine is dead quite like a normal petrol car,
Cheers

I think what you're talking about is a 'Sound System' device that was fitted to some RCZ's (200bhp and R models I believe). All it does is pipe the engine noise INSIDE the car. Outside it sounds just the same as before. The general consensus of this device however is that it only serves to annoy but if that's your thing there's some more info about it here: http://www.peugeotrczforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=9022

I have fitted a powerflow exhaust to my 2 litre deisel And really pleased with it. No roar. Im To old for that but plenty of aceleration and surprisingly better mpg.

Deal. I'll even drop it off.

Oops, forgot about this, I've just bought a Pipercross panel filter :oops:

No doubt you will have several takers for it on here anyway :eusa-think:
