You might think I’m wrong, but you cut the Cobra guy off a few times, literally cut him off and shut him down, just to talk about yourself again. Quite disrespectful personally. Yes the car sounds better, but 100% should’ve gone decat.
Have you removed the OPF? Isn't that illegal? OPFs have literally put me off of buying anything past a 2018/2019 car. I'm currently in the market for an A45s/CLA45s but I'm probably going to go for an older C63s (without any OPF or weird safety crap). How have you found the A45s with the safety systems etc?
That's probably the best option, pcw The A45s engine is so new, only 3 or 4 years old, who knows what the long-term effects of tuning are on that engine. Brabus stopped offering their engine update due to reliability problems. I am picking mine up soon and i dont think i will bother with engine modifications. New wheels and that eventuri induction kit and the exhaust tweak from pcw will be it.
Sounds good Luke, nice choice, sounds just right IMO. Reminds me of my Edition 30 with a BCS power valve turbo back system, the noise was just perfect. Angry when you wanted it and OEM just cruising for longer runs. Great stuff looking forward to when someone cracks the gearbox on your car as I think that’s when your project will properly take off… literally 😂
Great job again, I have the cobra cat back non res rear box delete so I was anxious to find out what the car sounded like as I will be going stage 2 with the 200 cell cobra sports cat with the guys from est ,although you have opted for the resonated with rear box it doesn’t sound ridiculous so has put me more at ease with how mine may sound 😊 I must admit though even with mine still running the cat it’s still has louder cracks on upshifts and louder pops on deceleration than yours seems to do with the sports cat ? Having said that looking forward to hearing it on your next video when you road test it properly. Excellent video again guys keep up the fantastic work and great channel 👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Hi luke brilliant as usual I also have a 5 digit no plate Can you please give me the exact size of your front plate and where you got it from Thank you Tim
@@hampshirephoto no its not. I have had many new exhaust systems on my cars and blue smoke is not normal, I was at cobra only a couple of weeks back with my megane rs 300 for a new system and no blue smoke. Something not right with your car mate.
@@isingh9670It's most definitely the new exhaust. I don't know the technical terms for it, but there's some stuff inside the new exhaust that needs to get burnt off, which causes the smoke.
What is the point having a cat back it sounds so bad and having a car like that needs to be opened up properly that is what the car was made for nor to be quiet if you want a quick car gow and get diesel car or a little car that has no power
Sounds quieter
Should've done the tune after everything is bolted up
A re-tune is on the cards soon once a few more bits have been done!
@@hampshirephoto Excellent! Transmission tune as well?
@@dh-ro6ghDid you not listen to the last upload Mr Clever Bollock?
@@Pob2278couldn't have put it better! 👍😎🤣 makes me giggle when folk pay zero attention. 😂
just the right amount of sound mate! absolutely perfect
Video starts at 11:45.
Legend.
Thanks
needs decated downpipes
The M1 is one place you do not want to put ya foot down
Nice looking car 👍.
That B58 was just in another league I have to say.
Yep, incredible engine. Mines getting 40+ mpg and is stupidly quick when it needs to be
my 140i sounds better
Thanks! Fair point, the B58 is one of the best modern engines ever made
@@wozza74 4 cylinder to 6 makes a difference
@@STEVEBHPDEVON f20c is the only 4 cylinder that sounds better than a b58
Here comes the blue on the exhaust! Engine over slowly

Came here to say the very same thing. Let the guy talk FFS.
Sounds almost the same. Not worth the upgrade/money.
OK that's the job you want,noise if you want it,refined everywhere else 👍
Absolutely!
Congratulation for your new exhaust!
The seats in my cla 45 were comfy. Although my little boy kept banging his head on the plastic part so he didnt like them
Would this setup with the car, with everything that has been done, could be fitted to gla45s? Basically same guts different shell?
yes luke sounding very nice, microphones just dont pick up the sound properly , bet it sound way better in person 👍 keep up the good content 👍 😀
I’m loving the sound of that 👌
no lights after mounting the 200 cells cat and full exshaust?
Risky move booting it on Sheffield parkway 😂 👮♂️ sounds unreal 👏.
Your giggle is much louder than the pop and bang

You are right about the car coming alive on the move, 4 cylinders just dont sound too good in parked revs. For sure hitting 500hp now!
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Has this past an mot,though cat back was for race. And off road use only, confused
I've to respect your dedication and passion for automotive, watching you since "16 years old drives Ferrari 458"! Lots of succes in the near future!
Thank you so much for the continued support!
Sounds nice but the cobra exhaust is restrictive but if your happy at 500hp it’s all good
Sounds perfect Luke 👌...Will definitely go for this set up when I get mine 👍
Thanks Paul! 😎🙏🏻
@@hampshirephoto You're very welcome Luke and keep up the good work...PS...Cold 🥶 Greetings from a Wintery New Zealand 🇳🇿 🙃
does this mean if i switch my a45s to a Fi exhaust, the pops and bangs will be the same as factory? meaning different pops are mapped to do that?
Do you need a remap of ECU after this? Does check engine light is on?
His is a turboback, so yes. If it's a cat back, so from the catalytic converter and back, then no.
These A45s are an absolute best of a car stock! but you’ve obviously done the right mods it’s a great looking car too best on the road in its class 👍
Big up tothill at the start 😂
My opinion the best Exhaust for this car is capristo exhaust other lvl and sound !!!
You never disclose the price of the exhaust? Nice to be transparent so we could decide weather its worth it
Mercedes: Already aounds mean
Me: Hmm, let's go Xgames mode!
Where did you get your car remapped
The link to Cobra RUclips doesn't work......404 not found!
When on a long journey it’s a lot better if you set the massaging facility up on the seats, making it’s a lot more comfortable 🤙
Good point 😎
Always had Cobra Systems on my cars, guys are amazing, they sound amazing and Jake and the team are just mega.
sounds really good cobra exhaust
💯😎
Couldn’t quite afford a new exhaust system for my a45s so opted to get it modified by PCW mods and got basically the same results.
That's probably the best option, pcw The A45s engine is so new, only 3 or 4 years old, who knows what the long-term effects of tuning are on that engine. Brabus stopped offering their engine update due to reliability problems. I am picking mine up soon and i dont think i will bother with engine modifications.

Such a nice car! Would absolutely love one.
Thank you!
Nailed it. Sounds awesome and its not too lairy👍🏼 making me want to buy an A45S more and more😂
Thank you! Hehe they’re great
What causes this cars to go on limp mode
I forsee another day ban at the Nurburgring now 😂

How do you feel compared now to the M140? Sound, excitement etc…..( I’ve an M140 SE largely off the back of you getting one and your videos😁.)
Hi mate, can you give use a list of what you have done to the car please?
Oh look it’s Hampshire Photography with another rinse and repeat video!
How do you know. Surely your life isn’t that shit to keep returning to watch….
@@pb3382 I drop by now and then to see if he’s changed it up. Looks like you’re still sucking him off. Some things don’t change!
Sounds awesome 😎👍
Thanks ✌️
I think you lost some 20 hp after the new exhaust installed
Absolute beast of an exhaust system, sounds amazing. Hope u enjoy it.
Sounds great,but the fake sound pumped through the speakers needs to go men
Good sleeper right there.
Thanks!
You have no idea what a sleeper is
@@slonky821 Oh really? a a45 isnt a supercar nor does it have some crazy power, i have a a3 that has 800hp, i know wat a sleeper is.
Did yours have an opf? Does removing opfs void insurance as its no longer "road legal", do you know?
Your insurance provider MUST be informed of ANY modifications to a vehicle, otherwise the insurance cover will be void...............
Hi luke brilliant as usual
I also have a 5 digit no plate
Can you please give me the exact size of your front plate and where you got it from
Thank you
Tim
You can make one yourself from your current number plate...........................
Just wanted to know his front plate dimensions @@richardsealey3626
Thanks Tim! I’ll grab this for you asap
Sounds like it's fueled by lions, such a lovely sounding a45 s lovely car
Beast of a car👌🏼
Neat
Why is therr only a valve on one side? 🤔🤷♂️
That is as it should be, if you had a valve on both sides when the valves are closed the car literally wouldn’t be able to breathe.
@@levisanderson6951
Ah OK 👍 😉
Blue smoke....... not a good sign.
I did make it clear in the video that the smoke is normal for a freshly fabricated exhaust.
@@hampshirephoto no its not. I have had many new exhaust systems on my cars and blue smoke is not normal, I was at cobra only a couple of weeks back with my megane rs 300 for a new system and no blue smoke.

Also watch any other new exhaust install and you will not see blue smoke.

this should have been the first mod
2 unskippable ad's to start, not great.
You watched for free though? Can’t complain.
Wasted your money boy.😂
I don’t see the point of doing exhaust on a four-cylinder. They all sound shit.
the sounds so pathetic imo
Cheers x
