Two Million Dollar Aston Martin V12 Speedsters with our Race Catalysts and Sport Exhaust systems

June 13, 2023

Just like buses, you wait for ages for one, then two turn up at once. Though with only 88 of these fabulous Aston Martin V12 Speedsters on the planet, the chances would be a lot slimmer. Unless of course, you offer a massive improvement in the sound department.

Registered in Holland and in a unique 'Volcano Red' finish, this left hand drive monster was a handful on the road. The Green example is from the Lee Collection and perhaps Aston Martin's own press car for a time, this right hand drive example had different features, like the track roundels (part of the paint job), rear glass boot covers and a useful rear view mirror.

With no roof or windows to speak of, visibility both outward and inward is at the maximum, and perhaps that's part of the appeal, to be seen in it. However, there is an Achilles heel... 

At any speed you have two choices, brave your precious face to the elements or wear a crash helmet. With the former, anything over 50mph and your face and mind are consumed by wind noise and the odd insect bouncing off your bonce.

Choose the latter and your senses become sadly dulled and the epic V12 soundtrack is muffled. 

Now we can offer a solution to the problem at hand. A louder, yet more tailored exhaust system, that opens up all the wonderful top-end frequencies, while exaggerating the overall depth of sound at lower revs. 

At the front of the car, we supply 300cpsi ceramic coated road legal 'race' catalysts, which replace the hefty primary and secondary catalysts. Our part requires no remapping and are emissions compliant. The result is a higher pitched, crisper note, allowing the car to breath better and give the driver all the pops and crackles they could ever need.    

At the rear of the car, we offer our Titan Sport Exhaust with Sound Architect™ valves. This system is smaller and lighter than stock, with the Titanium silencer casing giving a bit more zing to the soundtrack.

 

Our system also includes a balance pipe when the valves are open, to mix the 2 banks of 6 cylinders. This results in a smoother V12 note throughout the rev range. 

The system also uses valves that work with the cars own programming. They can be controlled via the driving modes operated on the steering wheel. 

In GT mode, the valves stay shut, unless on cold start or during high revving. In Sport and Sport + mode, the valves open more, giving the driver the maximum sound experience with or without a helmet.

An amazing car, now with its full potential released for the enjoyment of both the public and you, the driver. Contact us for more information.
