Description
DESIGN
|
The Aston Martin V8 Vantage was originally introduced with 380 bhp (a substantial number) and 170 mph (a significant speed) but some owners reported that the cars didn't feel fast enough.
However, these cars are fast machines and the Aston Martin V8 always had the sex-appeal to beat the Porsche 911! - It was the sensation that was lacking and since 2006 QuickSilver have offered a range of alternative silencers that provide a proper V8 soundtrack to satisfy most enthusiast drivers. As a partner of Aston Martin Racing in the GT4 Challenge Great Britain, QuickSilver have been able to draw on their experience to design and develop a set of Manifolds and Race-Catalysts for road-going AM V8s that offer a serious improvement on the original components. The OEM exhaust manifolds fitted to both the 4.3 and 4.7 V8 Vantage are horribly restrictive at medium and higher rpm, due to being made-to-a-price and the inevitable resistance imposed further upstream by the OEM catalysts. The handmade QuickSilver exhaust package recovers the performance lost by by the compromised OEM parts, delivering an improvement of approx. 40BHP (see the performance data below), and an engine which pulls with more strength all the way to the redline. QuickSilver have achieved this performance gain by paying meticulous attention to design and manufacturing detail. |
TESTING
|
The complete QuickSilver package has been arduously tested around the world famous Millbrook proving ground under a thermal cycle that would accelerate the onset of any potential durability issues.
|
SOUND
| These Manifolds & Catalysts deliver a very different sound, the same as the GT4. A crisper, sharper crackle that cuts and re-forms up and down through the gears. Certainly more volume but this can be controlled by the choice of either the standard silencer (with or without Fuse 22) or one of the three QuickSilver sound choices. The car shown in our video below has the 'medium' QuickSilver SuperSports silencer. |
KEY FEATURES
|
• The significant improvements over the OEM 4>2>1 parts are: • Longer, equal-length primary pipes of 4>1 construction = increases and concentrates power delivery. • Bespoke sequential collector cone = enables uncompromised exhaust gas scavenging. • 2mm 316 grade stainless steel primary pipework = durability. • Laser-cut flanges = consistency • 200 cpsi metallic Race-catalysts = reduction in resistance. • All joints and bends fully purge-welded (inert gas is used to protect the weld seam) = prevents cracking, corrosion and deformation. |

Install & Product
How Much Time Is Needed For Install?
It will depend on the make and model and the experience of the fitter. Some of our more modern systems take as little as 45 minutes though some vehicles take longer due to the removal of other parts to gain access.
Classic systems may on occasion be more difficult and we always recommend installation by a professional technician.
How loud Will It Be?
We offer sound readings for many modern systems and categorize our sound into levels; Sports, SuperSports and SuperSportsPlus.
As a guide our ‘Sports’ is for the car used everyday, our ‘SuperSports’ for the driver who enjoys his car mainly on the weekend or just for fun and ‘SuperSportsPlus’ for the enthusiast who wants to optimize the experience.
Does It Affect My Warranty?
You have the right to use high-quality aftermarket parts and know that your new car warranty claims will be honored.
In fact, your vehicle dealer may not reject a warranty claim simply because an aftermarket product is present.
A warranty denial under such circumstances may be proper only if an aftermarket part caused the failure claimed.
