RossMK2 Posted October 21, 2009 Report Posted October 21, 2009 well im replacing my 1300 xflow for a 1600. put twin 40s 234cam and possibly 1300 pistons but will i have to put a new exhaust and if so what exhaust system pops and rumbles nicely? Forgot to say must be leagal though
SmokeEm Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 Ashley's sound good bit fit is crap. For me it has to be Janspeed
100e Den Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 have one made for it. i know its a bit more expensive but well worth it in my humble opinion
joe1600 Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 I made my own side exit pipe. Went to a good scrap yard n got myself a brand new exhaust of a written off fiesta and a silencer off a old mini for just £10. Welded it all together but with the pipes welded quite far into the silencer (silencer was only there for the MOT tester) so I basically had a straight through system. It pops n crackles on overrun n just sounds the nuts
bullittcraig Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 straight through 2" pipe and a cherry bomb on the end
SebringRS Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 straight through 2" pipe and a cherry bomb on the end My m8 did tht on his BMW, 3" pipe straight through, no cherry bomb, just pipe. Sounded crap, but poped bk like nothing i've ever heard
RossMK2 Posted October 22, 2009 Author Report Posted October 22, 2009 is the janspeed one legal? and how does it sound?
Yeomans22 Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 i think i have an ashley one on mine, fits seem ok, not great, and sounds good for a standard xflow, only paid £20 for the lot so it will do for the moment.
steveh105 Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 Ive Got 16xflow in my anglia with exhaust manifold 4in2in1 from peter llyod rallying and 2.5 in ssingle box system sound g8 Steve
bullittcraig Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 straight through 2" pipe and a cherry bomb on the end My m8 did tht on his BMW, 3" pipe straight through, no cherry bomb, just pipe. Sounded crap, but poped bk like nothing i've ever heard It would sound crap just having straight through but the cherry bomb is the key as it gives it a nice deep rumble
flyingbanana Posted October 24, 2009 Report Posted October 24, 2009 Sesame Street do a cracking set up m8
sitting_budda Posted October 24, 2009 Report Posted October 24, 2009 Sesame Street do a cracking set up m8 Got pics if you like, youll need to mod the battery tray if it is still in engine bay as it fouls with the manifold. Apart from that, I have to say its the best fitting manifold and system ive ever fitted. Ive tried both ashley and peter lloyd systems in the past, their fitment isnt great and they leak and blow exhaust gaskets. The 105 speed stuff isnt cheap, but its saved me changing gaskets ever other week!!
antz Posted October 24, 2009 Report Posted October 24, 2009 ashley fit shit but sound good and are cheap. depends what you refer to as LEGAL? Ive had mine on for 3 years and not been bothered by anyone
RossMK2 Posted October 27, 2009 Author Report Posted October 27, 2009 what modifications are there to ashley?
tom28 Posted October 27, 2009 Report Posted October 27, 2009 my 3"" ashley went on steves sport easy enough
