Hi Tracey, I'd like to buy that from you. My new motor has a typical "Euro-spec" rusty one fitted. I'll stick you a cheque in the post.

I also have one of these 'rusty' pipe's fitted, but i've heard later cars have a slightly different design. Is this so, or will a regular stainless by-pass pipe fit?
If this is the case, does this also mean the stainless steel exhausts that are available might also not fit without modification?

No worries...the stainless steel exhausts include all of the fittings back to the heads including new manifolds.

Manifolds too? Lovely Jubblee. Cheers for clearing that up Mike

Hi Tracey, How's the new exhaust performing, do you feel more power coming from the engine?
I think I'll be going for one of these some day. Did you have any trouble removing the old exhaust
( snapped bolts, etc ) and how long did they take to do the job?
Cheers
Stu

The good thing about this exhaust is that even if you did snap all of the head bolts getting the manifolds off, you would have the two presently unused holes on each exhaust port to use

Out of interest how much are those stainless systems?
Also on a stock car with the cat bipassed, which bit is that as Ive never seen a stock system!!
- Stuart Rees - 04 Dec 2007
Good point Mike - Never thought of that.
Snapped bolts did concern me, so there's nothing stopping me getting one now...........except the money thing :roll:

oh yes its fantastic it sounds alot better its also got a bit more go too i love it , the old exaust was a pig to get off it , bolts snapped off so we had to weld the bugger off, it went in a 9 0 clock in the morning and they finished at 5 past one , yes it was worth the money so if you can afford i would say get it done :wink:
