SOLO Performance SMART CAR CENTER EXIT EXHAUST KITS

All of us at SOLO Performance are excited to be a part of the SMART Car of America forum. We have worked long and hard on the SMART Car exhaust kits, and now have three to offer the Smart community. Our "Center Exit" exhaust kits are aggressive in tone, and the rear valence has to be "notched" or cut to accommodate the tip. We also have a side exit exhaust that requires no modification to the stock valence and is softer in tone.

We appreciate the support and orders from people who have purchased our SOLO products in the past. For those that purchased, we encourage you to post your comments and then PM me with your full name and post # that is yours and we will be happy to send you a T-shirt as well.


SMART CAR CENTER SINGLE EXHAUST KIT

Fits: 2007-2011 Smart Car, 451

Retail Price: $489 shipped to most parts of the US and Canada

SOLO PERFORMANCE has meticulously designed this SMART CAR CENTER SINGLE EXHAUST KIT for the Smart enthusiast. This is our louder exhaust kit, and with the unique rectangular exhaust tip that was designed specifically for the SMART CAR, you’re sure to turn heads. Months of research and development went into this kit and it “works” as good as it looks.

Sound Quality:

On a scale of 1-10, with 1 being very quiet and 10 being “rockin' loud,” our SOLO Center Single exhaust comes in at a solid 7. This is a “sound on demand” exhaust kit, meaning that is it is not “loud” all the time. The loudness and softness is directly related to what you do with the gas pedal. How you drive the car produces many different “octaves” and the range of exhaust notes is quite remarkable. There are no troublesome RPM ranges or drone areas. The deep bassy sound of the SOLO Smart Center Single is incredible.

You will have people wondering about what “engine swap” you did. Once you’re at cruising speed, whether in town or on the highway, the sound “levels out” very quickly and becomes quiet.

This is the exact same product as the Solo Smart Rear Center Dual stainless steel exhaust kit, except the tip is different.

Kit Specifications:

This is a full stainless steel exhaust kit. Even the flanges, welds and hangers are all stainless. Our very uniquely designed resonator (it has internals like no other) is stainless steel, both inside and out. Our flex pipe is a “double braided” unit which is not only extra strong, but also eliminates whistling and vibrations that are associated with lesser quality flex pipes. Our hangers are reinforced to eliminate annoying and unnecessary breakage and the pipes are mandrel bent stainless steel. If you have the stock valence, you will have to trim it to allow the tip to fit. The stock exhaust weighs 21 pounds while the SOLO Center Single weighs only 12 pounds.

We are very proud of the fit and function of our SMART CENTER SINGLE EXHAUST KIT and know you will enjoy it very much. Many of our customers have told us it’s like bolting on a piece of art to their Smart!

The loudness and softness is directly related to what you do with the gas petal
You guys really need a proofreader (pedal)
That's two
There are no trouble RPM ranges or drone areas. The deep bassy sound of the SOLO Smart Center Single is
That'3 Three (troublesome)

All kidding aside, love the look of your mufflers, just can't afford one now, paying off 2 smarts and saving up for atrailer hitch.

I do have a question for you guys and I know that this isn't the thread to ask, but on your site, you rate these exhausts as being a 7 out of 10 for loudness. I was wondering if you are working on a 10 out of 10 for loudness. Thank you again for these excellent exhaust pieces!

A 10 out of 10 would be very loud, as if running straight pipes without a muffler. 7 out of 10 is more on the aggressive side, but keep in mind that the sound can be controlled by the amount of throttle you give it. This is still a no drone kit. If you want that 7 out of 10 aggressiveness, stomp on it, otherwise it is controlled very well by the driver. I hope this makes sense.
