    Twin exhaust system on a p38

    Does anyone have or has seen a twin exhaust system fitted to a P38?

    I have seen them for sale in the Uk
    Land Rover Accessories | Stainless steel exhaust system | Range Rover P38 - 4.0\4.6 twin tailpipe - Britpart - The Quality Parts for Land Rovers

    Wouldn't mind putting one on mine but would like to see how they look and sound first.

    As far as I know all the post 99 Thor models had standard twin exhausts in the uk. No difference in sound, just twice the cost to replace when they need changing. If you fancy twin tail pipes I would go to a local exhaust shop for a quote.

    here's one with a dual exhaust... mine


    Work was done by a local exhaust shop who hand made the system for me. Cost around $900 fitted if memory serves.

    My wife didn't like the sound much until she lost her Boxer (dog not car) down at a local reserve. In a panic, she phoned me at work and I drove over to where she was. As the Rangie pulled in to the reserve, the dog came running out to greet me.

    She hasn't complained since. In fact, she now has her own P38, with stock exhaust

    Cheers, Paul.

    Are we taking about the UK standard twin back box system or an Aussie exhaust shop upgrade. I know I am going a bit mutton and jeff but no real difference whilst I lived in the UK. Same effect as go faster stipes, just cosmetic and a fashion trend. Now all the go faster cars need 4 outlets
