Default Singer-Williams Exhaust tips


Singer-Williams



Hi folks! lately, I've been looking for a nice exhaust tips for my Carrera T, and I think Singer-Williams use this retro look exhaust Tips, so I made little Photoshop to see how it looks, and I really like it ! So I am thinking to custom make one set for me with a very good local exhaust specialist . I have a purist friend who told me, "don’t do it", because is like saying "I AM TUNED", anyway , I would like to know your valuable opinions, ( I liked, I hated, or whatever) ! Thanks for your thoughts and help !.

it's not my first choice, but it doesn't look bad and it's your car so whatever makes you happy.

for what it's worth, i don't love them on the singer either, i don't mean specific to the T.

I love these. Would really like to see the finished product.

I’ve been waffling on the Soul 4” tips because I don’t love the flared look. It feels very artificial. BUT you can’t have a same-size extension of the PSE pipes because the cutouts in the lower fascia are too large.

This seems to bridge the gap.

You read my mind !! It's exactly what I think! The nice thing the 991.2 still has, is that it doesn't have those fake exhaust tips that came on the 992...but anyway, I think the oval, rounded shape is more focused on a Fancy look, and not a thoroughbred Porsche look.
In the 991.2, the tubes coming out of the muffler have a diameter of 65mm (about 2.5 "), and it will make a lot of technical sense to use the same diameter to match the inner tube of the custom tip, with an outer diameter of 3.5" ,so the gap between both walls will be approximately between 3/8” to 1/2”.
I think brushed SS or Satin Black could be good option.

I found that BBI AUTOSPORT have same idea about Singer exhaust tips. See how it looks on GT2RS.

Your car, your rules. I like your color choices too. I think the Singer version are a bit showy, given the color they use. A non car person won’t even notice. A car person doesn’t need a color change to see the difference. Good luck!

i think the GT2 RS version you posted looks much better than the singer version, with the the thinner single wall straight cut tips.

I agree-would make them oval for sure instead of round.

Some quick raw samples in order to decide what size between 4" and 3.5" fits better. In my opinion 3.5"

Looks nice but I would want the inner tube to extrude 1/2” like the singer. I can be wrong but I think the design comes from aircraft wing machine guns where inner pipe is the barrel and outer is cooling sheet.

Agree. Adds a touch extra detail.
