**mystery machine** · 24-03-2005 08:09

hmm, do you think it suites the zaf? i'm not sure.

thanks for that though

OllyHewitt · 24-03-2005 08:40

Leave it "as is" mate, it looks beaut!

**Neo_Daz** · 24-03-2005 08:48

As olly said , looks the nuts

**mystery machine** · 24-03-2005 10:38

i know what your saying guys... but its costing me horse power. the design of the system is too restrictive on flow.

**Mazz** · 24-03-2005 10:57

It does need some tinted rear lights though, very sexy though...

**Add_Gee** · 24-03-2005 11:15

As it is looks custom, like the photoshop above is just a standard aftermarket exhaust.

How much power is it costing you? and why?

**mystery machine** · 24-03-2005 11:45

add, it was only 225 at courtnay's rollers, only 212 at dartford tuning after i took all the inards out of the back box

so options are....
get back box replaced as ginge has done for me

and fit a sports cat. get it r/r'd at courtnay see if its any better. if it performs keep as is.

change the rear box and flog the system then get a miltec item (cant get a stealth system funds wont allow) and a sports cat (should see 240/270ft lbs)

if it wont perform then its gona have to go.

i like the way it looks now..but it will be changed if it dont play ball.

the exhaust gasses dont like the way it flows...duno why...it just dont. torque is great up to 4k then it just nose dives

the standard system probly flows better than this one

**Mazz** · 24-03-2005 15:52

Can't you get a Powerflow system made up using your exhaust tips/or similar ones, made in the same style as they are now...
...maybe with a larger bore pipe work.

**mystery machine** · 24-03-2005 17:18

i think the bore of the pipe is already nigh on 70mm stuff mazz, i think its the boxes tbh, when i had surgery on the back box the internal pipe size was puney!

**MadMaNX237** · 24-03-2005 17:58

couldn't find a standard 16v gte one so had to draw it. not very good but think it suits the angular lines of the zafira

**mystery machine** · 24-03-2005 22:19

er...it has also gaind a few extra wheels

lmao lmao

i guess the tail pipe dont look too bad with that pic

ahh well, begars cant be choosers i guess, its power or the glory

**biggup1234** · 25-03-2005 12:16

i was bored so messed round wit it abit

lowered the back abit aswell

**projectjordan** · 25-03-2005 12:45

**mystery machine** · 27-03-2005 23:30

thanks guys for the efforts.... but no matter which way round they sit.... it dont look as good as it does now.

**mystery machine** · 30-03-2005 14:05

off to powerflow (bromley) earlier today for a new back box, guy at bromley was off so a trek to croydon was on the cards. after a lenghty wait, finaly got the car on the ramp where i had a long descusion with the zorts guy and a plan was made. now while power always has a price, today was no different in 2x ways.

1. it has cost me to date, £540 for the original design, another £50 to rip the innerds out of the back box and another £176 today to replace afore mentioned modified back box = £766

2. i have a fake driverside tailpipe now

but it does sound and go fantastic now, back box is bigger than the old one and less restrictive (basicly has a honeycombe tube inside it....thats all) so sounds and goes real well. next month it will be time for a sports cat, powerflow do one @ £180 +vat, courtnay do one at £349 (duno if there is vat on that price) miltec also do one at around £500

had a compare with the powerflow cat with the o/e item fitted to the zaf...and its much bigger in size

anyway here are some shhots of the underside now.

MM.

**Byron** · 30-03-2005 14:20

Looks good, although I would be soooo much happier if I knew that the drivers side pipe had a purpose and function.

**mystery machine** · 30-03-2005 14:43

tbh though, after this much money i'd want the car to be running 300bhp through it...not 220odd

if it dont get nigh on 240bhp with the sports cat...then its gona be sold and i will end up loosing more money as i will still have to buy a replacement. good job i kept the standard item as the map i'm running should even with a standard sytem give me 240bhp....it will just look and sound pants

**Byron** · 30-03-2005 14:47

Its a shame Gav.

**mystery machine** · 30-03-2005 14:58

life is ful of diasapointments...the exhaust has defo been one of them

**mystery machine** · 06-04-2005 08:32

ok here we go again! what tail pipe do you think will now suite the zaf? oval, letterbox, big bore single (4"), center exit 'may' be an option as well! but there will only be 1x tailpipe oh! and dtm 'aint' an option either. i dont plan on a dual rage 4" tail either. but open to sugestions.

gav.
