Nice work Wayne, I hadn't realised it replaced your whole front pipe too.

I'll pop round Edenesday and have a proper look.

It's the same bloke who built my 3" exhaust system 4 years ago.

Looks very nice.

couple of quick questions:

is your car fitted with air con?
would they be able to knock out a few more of these and maybe do a group buy?!?

Ive removed my aircon which has freed up a load of space.


He has got 4 flanges as he had to by at least 5

Said he is happy to make more but would need a car to build them on.

Give then a ring if your interested very helpful and he knows his stuff

I did pop round at around 7.30pm but you'd already gone. Was that good news?

Is it all working?

I came back and ffitted my ignition amplifier instead.

I'll try to catch you at the weekend.

did you supply the pipes yourself ? reason I'm asking is I'm looking for a 3 inch flexible section for mine and can't find any.

No, the bloke who made it supplied it all.

He's the orginal bloke who built my system 4 years ago when he worked at another place ;-)

quick question for everyone thats had a 3" downpipe fitted, when coupling upto the goose, do you use a 3" flange or a 2.5" flange?? also has anyone ever attempted a screamer pipe when making up these downpipes?

I've just bolted my 3" janspeed straight to my 2.5" goose which isn't ideal I know :oops: , But it works ok and will do until I can get the rest of the 3" system to match.

why is that rob?:shock: :oops: by the time he gases have reached the goose section the gases would of cooled down so the smaller diameter goose section will help the gases escape quicker:thumbsup:

just a pity theres a 1/4" step in diametre that will kill flow...if it tapers then what you say is correct, if you bolt 3 inch to 2.5 inch with no taper it is pants for flow
