The hot compact SUV market is one of the fastest growing segments in the automotive industry as they provide the perfect blend of hot hatchback fun whilst offering the feeling of being in a full sized SUV. Nissan pioneered the hot compact SUV by taking their popular Juke, and turning up the heat. The result, a turbocharged 1.6 litre engine with over 200BHP and a sub 7 second 0-62MPH sprint, figures which will frighten hot hatchback owners. Whilst these healthy performance figures make the perfect recipe for the ultimate hot compact SUV, the Nissan Juke Nismo is let down by its standard exhaust system, which is muted from the factory, limiting the character you'd expect from a performance SUV and resulting in a disappointing drive. For those who want to enhance the sound of their Juke Nismo, Cobra Sport has the solution with their performance exhaust range.
The Nissan Juke Nismo performance exhaust configurations are as follows:
- Primary Cat Back - Pipework attaching to the primary catalytic converter, including the secondary de-cat and replacing the centre and rear sections.
- Secondary Cat Back - Pipework fitting from the secondary cat section backwards, replacing the centre and rear sections.
- Secondary De-Cat - Pipework fitting from the primary catalyst to the factory fit centre exhaust section, replacing the second standard catalyst.
The 4,000rpm static sound testing revealed a +7.8dB increase when equipped with Cobra Sport's primary cat back performance exhaust system.Like all Cobra Sport exhausts, the Juke Nismo performance exhausts are TIG-welded from high-quality T304 stainless steel and the mandrel-bent pipework has been developed in 2.5in (63.5mm) pipework, allowing for a smoother rate of gas flow for improved power delivery and a noticeably enhanced exhaust tone.Cobra Sport have improved the styling of the Nissan Juke Nismo, creating a noticeably enhanced and balanced look to the rear of the car with a choice of dual 4” (101.6mm) and 4.5” (114.3mm) slash cut highly polished stainless-steel tailpipes. For those looking to take the style upgrade a stage further, upgraded carbon fibre tailpipes are available.
