Bi-Modal Exhaust?

Postby SSV » Fri May 18, 2012 6:24 pm

I was wandering around the HSV site checking out some of the options, and saw that for the GTS they offer Bi-Modal Exhaust.
"Bi-Modal Exhaust
Bi-Modal exhaust to keep noise low when you’re cruising and to go louder when you want to make an audible statement."
http://www.hsv.com.au/e3/GTS/

Does anyone know if it is by throttle position, or switched. I seem to remember seeing aftermarket exhaust that was Bi-Modal, it was switched.

The UK-spec VXR8 Bathurst has this. Seems to be connected to the throttle, even though there is a switch to make it more aggressive.

alot of C6's have been offering "dual mode exhaust" as an option, and is by switch. you could switch between "mild" and "wild" as some would say. I knew a guy with a Callaway Z06 which had this.

i'd probably prefer to have the "wild" always on, so therefore, i'll skip the switch...haha

I would use the "wild" most of the time, but sometimes, like dropping my daughter off at school, my old car was a little much.
