basically...to get my exhaust to fit it had to be modded and because of this the tail pipe sits in to far and looks a little gay ala pic...
is it so silly of me to conisder this? i want a twin 3" back box, longlife will do one for 150 quid...but my mates really hand with a welder, and well could i just have the tail piece of my current back box cut off and have this put on?
Link for tail pipe
Views, it'll cost 25 quid instead of 150! hmm?
i dont see why not there nothing rong with the back box on there just the tailpipe you want to change so go for it
yeah go for it, cut off old tailpipe, weld that one on. No point getting another back box if all you want is a different tailpipe
You'll need to test fit it first before welding......tack it on so you can reposition (assuming he'll be welding off the car) otherwise it will end up on the p iss
I would do just that!
off i go to my discount motor factors tomorrow
Yes quickly before somebody tells you its a bad idea! Dont read any more posts on this thread!
lol...
well i just occured to me one day that a tail pipe is a tail pipe....:S and i didnt need to change the whole back box lol
leave it as it is it looks perfect, why do you want an exhaust that sticks out a mile, it's fine don't listen to em
It wont stick out miles, it will look the same just twice!Originally Posted by MarkyG
its not gonna look any better
gonna do the same on my v6 cav run around, happy with the performance/mpg etc so just gonna change the tailpipe for a good quality pro looking one like thatthis is mig tho so, unless you put a BTB custom one on there your gay.
oh sorry , failed to realize my sexuality was determined by the tailpipe on my car
i bet u guys love barryboys.co.uk
If he wants to change it , let him
actually i care so much im gonna go round an stop him...
nah of course not mate, your car, you ahve to live with it if you can get it done cheap then why not, imo wont look better as the exhaust on there already looks fine
fookin ace car, love it
Have you done it yet??
LOL no, i will be, uni work is taking all of my time at the moment, will post pics of it done
i will get you the tail pipe soon when i go maxsess ok
lol, I had a similar idea on my rover 620. I couldn't be asred spending any money on the 2.0l grandad mobile. But I was bored one day and decided to chav it up, just for the hell of it. So I took the back box off and replaced it with a 3" flexi pipe and that exact twin exit tip you have a pic of. Amazingly it sounded pretty good. I also stuck a pipercross filter on it off an AX. And it has a loose gasket on the down pipe that actually whistles under load.
I actually had a bloke in a 2.3L Merc with a full SS system that cost over £300 asking me what I had done to is as i sounded better than his. He wasn;t so pleased when he found out I spen £20 on it
Plus the local chavs on the car park are now convinced its a 500bhp turbo monster as it whistles when you boot it and backfires when you let the engine slow the car down. lol and the best bit is it's automatic that's about as quick off the mark as an astmatic ant.
I'm thinking of sticking an ironing board on the boot lid and sending a pic of it to barryboys
Does it have to be welded? It may clamp on after cutting the tail pipe section off....
May have to cut two slits in to let the metal bend, but its easier than welding, and adjustable.
