Tubi Style Exhaust System for Elise? - LotusTalk

JDN17 · 10-02-2005, 03:21 PM

Curious if anyone knows if Tubi Style makes exhaust systems for the U.S. Elise? I didn't see any on their website, nor have I heard anybody mention them for U.S. cars on here.

There is a car for sale on Ebay that says it has one (item # 4579611118), but I have not heard back from the seller yet.

Also, check out the VIN number... car #5.

Probably a dealer demo. I wouldn't want to get one thats had 6700 abused miles on it.

That's funny. The same car sold in August.

I figured the new dealer was probably wrong

, as the older ad mentions...

Stage ll sport exhaust "sounds like ferrari 360 spider with Tubi"

And here I got excited that there might be a new exhaust on the market!!!

There was used Artic Silver/Touring/Starsheild available up north a few months ago (near Detroit I think) that had a Tubi system according to the dealer. It had about 1100 miles and they were asking around $45k for it at the time.

They guy was positive that it was a Tubi system and was aware of the Stage 2 and some of the aftermarket set-ups.

I had a Tubi on my Elise S2 and my F355. Have to say, they're a pile of crap. Look at one thats been cut open and you'll see what i mean. The one for the Elise was incredibly heavy and did nothing for performance. The Yoshimura was streets ahead. I know have a Capristo on my 355 which blows the pants off the Tubi.

Can we see a link to the tubi cut open?
