Exhaust Volvo C70

The Volvo C70 features a range of exhaust systems, including stainless steel sport systems, front and rear mufflers, and complete kits designed for both petrol (T5 2.3-2.5L turbo) and diesel (2.0D) engines. These exhausts come with diameters ranging from 63.5 mm to 100 mm and include approved components meeting Euro emission standards 3 to 5. They aim to improve your car's sound, engine performance, and meet legal requirements.

Optimal exhaust diameter for performance depends on your Volvo C70 model and engine type. Common diameters include 63.5 mm for pipe sizes and outlets up to 100 mm. Sport systems often feature pipes of 100 mm for better flow and a sportier sound. Choosing the right size helps maintain proper exhaust flow, improving power and engine efficiency.

Main sport options include complete duplex systems made of stainless steel, such as those designed for the C70 II Cabriolet T5 with left and right round rolled pipes of 100 mm diameter providing a distinctive sport sound. Other options feature performance mufflers with approved quality marks, enhancing both the sound and performance of the vehicle. Accessories like silicone pipes, clamps, and heat shields may be included to support installation and durability.

• Duplex stainless steel systems with EG approval
• Sport mufflers optimized for sound and flow
• Complete installation kits, including clamps and connectors

These systems are designed to enhance sound quality, engine power, and comply with regulatory standards.

Yes, upgrading your Volvo C70 exhaust is possible with sport exhaust systems that improve engine power, optimise exhaust flow, and deliver a nice, aggressive sound. Options include stainless steel mufflers, resonators, and sport pipes designed specifically for your vehicle model. These upgrades help release engine power by reducing backpressure and enhancing flow, all while respecting emissions regulations.

• Stainless steel sport systems provide durability and optimal flow
• Resonators and mufflers designed for a sportier sound
• Options suited for petrol turbo and diesel models

Installation is typically straightforward using included clamps and fittings, but professional advice or in-person inspection ensures the best fit and compatibility.

When selecting a muffler for your Volvo C70, consider these factors to ensure proper fit and performance:

• Compatibility with your car model and engine version (e.g., T5 petrol, 2.0D diesel)
• Material quality, preferably stainless steel for corrosion resistance
• Diameter and shape of pipe and outlet to maintain exhaust flow and sound characteristics
• Compliance with emission regulations (Euro 3 to 5 standards)
• Inclusion of necessary mounting accessories and compatibility with catalytic converter or resonator

Matching these details ensures optimal performance, sound, and longevity.

Improving your Volvo C70’s exhaust is often beneficially complemented by upgrading the air intake system. Cold air intakes or performance filters can improve engine breathing, increasing airflow and enhancing power along with an upgraded exhaust. This combination can optimize overall engine efficiency and sound.

• Choose air intake systems compatible with your specific engine model
• Look for performance filters that improve airflow without compromising filtration
• Ensure proper fit to maintain engine bay integrity and sensor functionality

Consult a specialist or consider in-person inspection to verify the best fit and product for your Volvo C70.
