Default Leovince cans

Does anyone know whether thay are any good? and what they sound like on the SV

Seen a high level oval alloy one for £180 on ebay, my other option is the fuel two tone blue titanium one.

opinions please.

Good quality can. My mate had a pair on his SP-2 and they were throaty and very loud. probably a bit too loud by on the SV I'd imagine they would sound good.

Very good cans... Their systems seem to be great for power too. I don't like their looks though, the logo looks like something from a kid's cartoon

Yup, the US guys are all over them... But to be fair, the US tuning scene can be quite faddy- one big tuner/builder recommends something and suddenly everyone's doing it, till the next big thing comes along and suddenly the old way's rubbish That's why everyone slavishly fitted M4 for ages even after Arrow surpassed them, and the Leo Vinces aren't exactly new on the scene either, just that it's taken this long for them to draw attention.

Whichever one's cheap on Ebay... You spend twice as much for a new one, and even the best exhaust isn't twice as good as the worst. Not Micron, though, and Akrapovic aren't too good for the SV either. Nobody's even heard of mine (WRP), not even the company know they made it But it's a decent exhaust and was dirt cheap.

I'd buy Arrow if I was buying new, they're up there with the best and look fantastic.

I was worried about the logo as well, but I was told that now a days they supply that separately in the box so you can choose not to attach it. That convinced me to get a Leovince can.
