Cheers Gary, likewise

Cheers Paul, it's that kind of year to break things

Mark the ecotec pipe is spot on IMO and don't need to cut the bulkhead

*****UPDATE*****

I thought I'd share a few photos.

Car has been running great and I've really fallen in love with it since I've been out and really using it to enjoy rather than commuting

A local meet the saturday Billing would have been:


and Monday me and a couple of mates went out for a drive so they got a few rolling shots for me




Oh and saw this when we were filling up:


Sounded incredible! Can't wait for my step dads to be on the road

Probably was just enjoying the weather tbh

The enormous exhaust has been on a while due to my other one blowing like a boss It sounds great which kind of puts me off changing it

It did have some fun toying with various cars

Oh and where's your rev limit? I'm not sure if mine has been changed or what as it revs to 6 and a half without kicking in

Can't you weld a smaller tip on it or would that change the note? Bet it wouldnt, an exhaust that goes lower than the mudflaps is just wrong

The whole package of this car seems to work well, the GSi kit suits the colour etc.

Standard rev limit is about 6750/6800rpm.

That is the plan, I'm not sure if it will change the sound.

If you look back it was only fitted mainly to get through the MOT and that the plans were to put a 3" outward rolled tip on it when I get a chance
