Ftype p300 exhaust

Hi guys, just got my first car, a 2018 ftype p300 r-dynamic. I'm a little bit sad about the sound tho :lol: :lol:
I know its a 2l and will never make notes as good as a v6 or v8, but i wonder if anyone had any experience with it to make it sound less like a washing machine.
I have to think about this very well because i still have a 2 year jag warranty, i would have to be very sure about the results to proceed to this upgrade.
Maybe doing a backbox delete would help? should i buy a new line and save the old one or warranty issues?
I'm open to any opinion, just glad to own this art piece

I think member powerhouse has the same model and has done some exhaust mods, maybe he'll be along to share his wisdom. I also think he posted about it so maybe a search will find his thread.

There's a few companies working on exhausts for the P300.
I'm currently waiting for mine to come in from SuperSprint which is this one:

Otherwise there's one from Ragazzon:

Those are the only 2 good ones I've found so far, some people have mentioned that the v6 one's might also fit, and it seems like VelocityAP is currently looking into exhausts for the P300 also.

I sent an email to supersprint yesterday asking for a video but they don't have any, i've seen those two, i just wanted to be sure before risking it, if you install it soon please send me a video, i would be SSOO Grateful!!
I've seen powerhouse post before, pretty interesting the way he did it, even for warranty his way is better. super easy!

judging by the pictures the p300 after market systems look remarkably similar to V6 systems - haven't done any measurements, wondering if anyone has looked into it?

This then opens you up to quick silver, remus, VelocityAP etc, then within that you have straight pipes, X pipes, back boxes and so on

I've read people been using the v6 ones, problem is, thei're made for a V6 engine, this i4 produces barelly no sound, so it doesn't make much sense to me investing in a exhaust made for an engine that already sounds awesome...

Will do! So far it won't be in until mid August (I placed the order in May) it takes a while to get their systems in it looks like, and the pandemic didn't help at all.

Here you go , made this video some time ago with a cheap Go pro style camera, takes till about 40 secs till i get going, , was on a country road with traffic so couldn't really get the revs up, but if you hit the red line in the gears is bangs much louder and more sporadic.
