i decided i was guna try and make my own exhaust system, well back box anyway. i removed the original backbox and i have replaced it with straight trough 2.5" stainless tube it was my 1st attempt so it took a bit of work but im chuffed to bits with the results, sounds awsome looks pretty standard from the outside too. i have a video ready to put on youtube so ill put a link up soon as poss. let me know wat u think

Wow! Good work Hobson ... sounds great too. Is there any performance gain?

[HobsonS4]

i expect there will be a slight increase in power, there has to be, the gases are flowing a lot more freely, i cant say as i can notice it though, the sound itself makes the job worth while

So the only point that exhaust isn't just a pipe is the main cats or are those gutted too?

[shineydave]

gutted pre cats. main cat and middle box still present

Sorry I want paying attention.

Is the whole exhaust made from before by yourself? Or just the mod that you done?

If its the case that youve modified another exhaust, what was it before you chopped off the box?

Lookis like it was a single exhaust? What brand? or completely home made?

Hobson,

The exhaust looks superb, how did you do that ?

[HobsonS4]

i have a hangover and your confusing me saf! the back box splits from the mid section there is a sleeve that slides over the pipes holding them together there is no cutting involved, jus undo the 2 bolts on the sleeve that holds the mid to the back section. before i did this my exhaust was standard the pipe is 2.5" standard.

cheers dude.

its quite simple if u have the tools and equiptment. stainless tube, stainless bends and a tig welding set, i removed the original back box and basically used the bends and tube to create 1 piece starting and finishing at the same points as the standard box. measured where all the hanging brackets were and made these with some 12mm bar.
i hope this sort of explains it
