Anyone purchased a K-Tec back box lately?

[Anonymous]

Kett is that a standard or an OMG

 

[ColinG]

can someone with a k-tec put a video up please?

Well, i've recieved my QS sport today and the OMG has gone back.

I wasn't really looking forward to fitting it after the OMG . But "OH MY GOD" i can hear at 2-3k RPM, no more BOOOOOMMMMM !!!!!!! [smilie=cool.gif]

It's sounds just like me old 911 with its Cup System. I am one very, very, very happy man .

I have even taken out the rear grills, next the center section me thinks is to come out.

Okay, finally managed to get the box fitted and got some video if anyone is interested. Have to say, the k-tec box is definitely not discreet but not too loud either. Just done some motorway driving and i can certainly put up with it, looks great too, especially with the grilles inverted.

Pretty chuffed with it overall.

Judge for yourselves:

Standard Backbox

K-tec Box

K-Tec sounds very nice [smilie=thumbsup3.gif]

 

[GTTurbo]

KTEC sounds sweet!!! Just out of interest how much was it?

 

[Matt]

My Quicksilver sounds better!! lol

 

[Jamesv6]

Certainly sounds nicer than the standard box.

I paid around 450 squid including vat and delivery.

I'm sorry to say that in a way i'm glad my K-Tec was damaged and wasn't deliverd to me and i had to have the QS Sport instead after hearing the links.

The QS sport sounds far better to me, but it’s all down to personal taste.

To be fair id say the video doesnt do it justice, would you agree miguel?

 

[Miguel 4747]

Yeah, completely agree. It also seems to have changed tone slightly (as well as colour). Drove through a tunnel last night, blew my socks off! -might take that detour home every day now.

Did you buy from K-tec themselves?

 

[Miguel 4747]

Yeah, they charged £50 deposit and then around £390 when it was delivered. Delivery was free.

 

[oatz]

£440 all in? Fantastic how did you manage that? as their website quotes loads more http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=1086

 

[Miguel 4747]

[smilie=dunno1.gif] Yep, just double-checked, i paid £446.50 all in, and that was what they quoted.

Excellent :approve:

Just checked and they have put the prices up! -now £475 + VAT + delivery....

 

[ColinG]

now that sounds really really good!

seems to keep the standard tone..but louder! :approve:

Thats a real shame the cost has gone up. Stainless Steel prices have soared lately, almost doubling in price so i reckon they might have taken a hit when they built mine, that or someone made a cock-up when they quoted it.

I do remember they knocked off the delivery cost so there might be a little room for manoeuvre. I wonder if the manufacturer could be approached direct?
