I was like you. Couldn't make my mind up to get it done or not.
In the end I just thought sod it I having them quads. They make the car look even better than it already is.

Quads yes. I think that it is a very expensive and hard to justify option, but does look good, but debadging I can't get my head around that one. The chrome colour and the design of the lettering enhance the appearance and break up the body of paintwork. Certainly not for me. I love the styling of the RCZ letters.

Not to sound like a spoiler, but I am not convinced there is any sound change due to the fact you are still using the original exhaust system with the Zunsport tips, as all you are doing is adding a set of dual-tips to the right-side. What might be happening is that with the window down and being on the right-side of the car driving, is that you hear the exhaust better. Just my input, because if you want a different sound then you have to change the muffler at a minimum.

I agree :) Mine is a replacement from the muffler back. Although it sounds no different lol. But it made a big difference on my 206sw when I changed it.

Dunno about that RCZ-Performance, Peugeot said themselves that it would result in a slightly note change to the exhaust. It's not a massive change and doesn't sound like a Ruffer system for example but there is a definite difference with it.

Would agree with mrizzle . A definite note change that I noticed when I had my zunsport fitted .
Nothing major. But a slightly deeper tone when accelerating.

Not argueing, but did you notice the change while moving or parked? If moving, windows down? Trying to gather information only.

I've asked the wife to turn it over and rev ot while I stand outside in order to verify it and it's noticeable even at idle which the OEM exhaust wasn't. It's just deeper/throatier/raspier sounding. As I say, not akin to a full performance set up though.

RCZ PERFORMANCE . I noticed as soon as I drove out of the garage . Windows up.
But a definite deeper note is to be heard.

I stand corrected. It was my understanding that there is no change in the exhaust note when replacing just the dual-tips with quad-tips. The fact that it does is good to know. Thank you.

Damn those twin exhaust look good! I'm not allowed to change anything on the one I'm getting as it's a company car type senerio.
Is there anyway of attaching just the chrome pipes for looks with out cutting anything?

Unfortunately not. Your option would be to buy another rear valance and keep the cars original. We have our spare one from our car which is already notched for the right side. Contact us via PM if you are interested. We could install ours along with the Zunsport, that way you can return the car to factory setup at a later date as nothing is cut on the car.

Fit my own quads. Warranty wasn't affected at all. In fact I was never asked who fit them when I ran it in recently for repair. Took a half day to do and was able to make a real nice clean job of cutting the plastic up. Posted the instructions on here a while back in the modding section.

I also agree the exhaust note was deeper when fitted.
