Right, today i decided i'd put my car up on a ramp and fix a little blow i had from speedbump rubbage, into college i drive over the bumps as normal then scrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrape crunch. Didnt sound good, and neither did the extremely loud new blow. Now i think sure is lucky i'm just about to fix it thinking its just been pulled apart abit.

Turns out the middle box was completely ripped from it welds revealing the hole filled pipe. so the options are remove and drive home with no exhaust ooor pikey it!

My mate had some joining parts from his system and we cut what was needed off the old section.

i must say the results were perfect! and it actually sounds pretty good, got the zippy mark 3 sound...

i was on a limited time scale too as i had to be at work this eve

As you can see it's a perfect fit out of random bits and bobs

Thats awesome

some people pay garages becuase their friends think car tuning is going to halfords for a bolt on air filter and they dont have convenient garages to work in

clever stuff though, good idea :p

yea most of us dont have a ramp to use

or bits of exhuast lying around

you lucky bastard

*edit* thats not ment to sound like I'm having a go. I'm just jelous!

i have a trade account at halfrauds good for getting oils and batteries cheap though.

my plan now is a real straight through and a de-cat (obviously the car isn't for road use...) so it doesn't grind on speedbumps as much (which are found on private property...) it'll only be wishbones, sump or fuel tank then so it's all good, i'm scared it'll be too loud though with the performance backbox also...

haha well it's all well having access to a ramp but if it takes half hour to work out how to get the car high enough for the arms to get under its pointless lol, even driving on blocks of wood didnt work!
