OK, sounds like a base V6 with limited options. Does not have a valved muffler and therefore no fuse to pull.

 

ok thanks once again for your response
is it better to go for a model with switch you think just so much difference in price also an anything be done to this model to sound a little better ?

 

Somewhere here is a mention of a complete replacement system that upgrades you to Active Exhaust (no button) for about $2k plus installation with factory parts IIRC.

 

Lots of things can be done. Just search the F-Type forum for 'Exhaust" threads.

 

Ok thanks so you know by any chance where or who can do it for me just really not sure if I should buy this model just getting it at a great price

 

Thanks for response

 

Valved exhaust gives you an option to quiet it down, when compared to non-valved exhaust. When open, they are about equally loud.

 

I just replaced my non valved exhaust with a valved exhaust where the valves are always open. The valved exhaust is much louder with the valves open, it’s not even close. I would say it is about twice as loud.

 

how did you go about changing yours ? Also how do I know if the model I'm looking at is a non valves exhaust ? Also is this what I'm after ??

 

The valved exhausts have 4 pipes going into them and also the vacuum actuators that look like cat food. The picture you show is that is an active exhaust however at that price you may want to consider going with VAP custom exhaust.
