  1. I've just had a look and the heat shield on the cat is solid but what looks like heat shielding between the first silencer and the bottom of the car is loose. but it doesnt seam solid enough to make the sort of noise im getting
  2. Right just put the snorkel back in and went for a drive. The noise is still there but only slightly. Had a look under the car whilst the engine was running but cant see any were it could be vibrating from :scratch:
  3. HAHA sounds like fun :D But not shore if you read in the other thread that im getting a funny vibrating/popping noise from the exhuast when the snorkel is removed and with the snorkel in its a bit quite. So just want to remove the silencer thats after the cat just to bring the noise up a bit 8) some point in the futur I will have a full exhaust system fitted. :grin: Just emaild longlife to see how much it will be to have the silencer removed :D
  4. I cant work it out either, im going to put it back in, i a bit and see how much difference it makes. But yesterday I put it in so I could just hear the exhuast and i didnt notice it then when i took it out I could. Strange
  5. :lol: :lol: :lol: Ya Im going to do that, but I do love the intake growl :( Just have to make the exhuast louder :grin: Was just wondering if any one had any suggestions as to why.
  6. Thanks :D I'm pleased with mine, a bit to quiet tho, so I think I might go back to longlife and get them to remove the small silencer just after the cat. What you think??? The guys at longlife said they had a immaculate green storm in not that long ago, I'm gessing that was you vuaghan 8)
  7. I have a magnex back box and love it sounds and looks great, But a tiny bit quiet. How much louder would it be if I had one of the silencers boxes remove? I dont want it to be too loud just a bit more than it is.
  8. .....when the air box snorkel removed. I'v noticed a funny noise coming from the exhuast when accelerating. When I put the snorkel back in the air box earlyer it didnt make any noise, but when I took it out it makes this noise (has been making the noise sinse the exhuast was fitted but didnt think anything of it) Its a strange popping/vibrating/resonating sort of sound. it only happens underload in first and second gear but only at low to mid point of the rev range Not shore if its back fireing or metal on metal vibration Just wondering if any one could shed some light on it :shrug:
  9. HAHa I didnt say I was going to keep it like that, only so I can get a good feel as to how it sounds then I will take the snorkel back out again :grin:
  10. Big thanks to t.branford for my manual. Came very quickly and in great condition. Pay pale would of made things easyer but cant falt anything els :D
  11. Your not wrong there. I think I'm going to put the snorkel back in for a while so I can hear the exhaust on its own :D
  12. :D Managed to get a good look under the car too whilst it was up. Seams to be in good nic 8)
  13. Had a Magnex back box fitted today by Longlife exhaust in Berkeley. Thanks to Andy for the back box, was in great condition and felt paying what I did for it was day light robbery, Chears Andy :D I would higly recommend them, they knew what they was doing. Here it is being fitted And the final resualt Doesnt sound stupidly loud, can only just hear it over the intake growl (as I've removed the snorkel 8) ) :D
  14. Unfortunatly I work for a supermarket *cough* Sainsburys *cough* and I made the mistake of parking my car a bit too close to the front of the store and had a chunk of paint along with a small dent on my passangers door for my troubles. Now I park in the far corner of the car park next to a mate who works the same hours to me, I all ways get their first so I have a wall one side and his scooby the other side. :D Only got to worry about thos Fing sh!t hawks (aka seagulls) :bad-words:
