Post by rsmotors » Sun Nov 30, 2014 7:32 pm

can any point me in the right direction for replacement downpipe flexi joints, i have measured the od at 65mm and lenth at 120mm,,

I plan to do the same. Lots on ebay, e.g. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/EXHAUST-FLEXI ... 415b0484f0
But will admit I've not ordered one yet to measure up side by side.

ETA - now ordered one. Will let you know how I get on.

Needed a little bit of extra welding on to make up the length, but seems to have worked OK. Now all fitted and back in the car.

Thanks for the recommendation, did they decat the original down pipes?, how will you get on with the emissions?
