Stainless Steel Rear Silencer IL Motorsport MX5 Mk3/3.5/3.75 Reviews

4.4 Rating 13 Reviews

Another incredible product from IL Motorsport! Here we have a very highly polished, 100% stainless steel rear silencer for the Mk3. Constructed in two parts with a beautifully welded Y piece in the middle, this exhaust gives off a proper roadster growl without being too instrusive. The 40 degree slant on the 100mm diameter tail pipes ensure that it also fits perfectly and looks superb. Supplied with a new gasket, nuts and bolts for an easy installation, it is also fully E-Type Aprroved for road use. The quality of this exhaust really does have to be seen to be believed!Fits all Mk3, Mk3.5 & 3.75 models, 2005>2015

“Very impressive all round. Quality of manufacture is particularly so. Lost a star as at low revs the right side outlet rattles against the rear diffuser. Haven't had a chance to figure out why although the most likely culprit/s are the rubber hangers and/or the metal mounting brackets. The exhaust note is burble rather than blast which is no bad thing. Hadn't intended spending quite as much but glad I did. Great job!”

“Bought this after doing a fair bit of research. Extremely pleased with the quality and fit but the sound is disappointing. Just a slightly deeper tone. No pops, don`t know how others are experiencing those. Wanted something that sounded a bit more sporty and clearly the video I had seen on the internet had aftermarket midpipe as well. Disappointing.”

“As has been said, truly a thing of beauty, pity the only visible evidence of having this on the car is the fat tail pieces. I must admit to being underwhelmed by the sound - surely thatÆs what anyone fits this for. Quite boomy at mid revs, although it does rasp nicely on start, burble happily 40-50mph and pop gently on deceleration, but it doesnÆt really have that head-turning grittiness you might expect from the videos. At the price I would highly recommend any prospective buyer to hear it for themselves first.”

“Had this 3 months now - this is a very well made back box in terms of materials and beautifully welded. It is much smaller than the original with huge tips. Both silencers have a thin sheet of steel wrapped around and tack welded on - probably just to add the IL logo onto them - these tack welds are not of the same quality and start to rust fairly quickly (weeks). The exhaust note is very loud with the complete IL setup - makes the car trim vibrate and far too loud for long journeys - headache inducing - but fine for short drives. Would be better a bit quieter.”

“It doesn't get any better then this, I was driving back from work with a smile on my face. A little bit of vibration when accelerating at 2.5k rpms. Can't complain. Looks good, sounds good. The best exhaust out there.”

“Having done a lot of research into back boxes, Cobra, Goodwin, BBR etc I decided on this IL Motorsport one, Im very glad I did!! Its manufactured superbly, looks great on the car (MK 3.75) and sounds superb, no droning at low revs but sings at high revs, pops and farts on upshift and downshift, Its Lovely!! Superb service from MX5 Parts, Ordered Monday...In my grubby mitts by Tuesday dinnertime!!”

“Beautiful to see, very well done, on my nc1 I mounted a rear diffuser and fills the exit holes well. Unfortunately, in my car I mounted the 4-1 collectors that eliminate the first catalyst and with this exhaust the sound is really too much. Beautiful sound with full tone and darker than the original, full sound at every regime, but with the roof closed thunders too much,at highway speed the ears are annoying, too noisy to use on the road and every time I see the police I'm afraid of being stopped. Very recommended for those with the rest of the standard exhaust, but not recommended for those who put the manifolds 4-1 without the first catalyst, sound too strong as on race cars.”
