Main dealers are pretty much useless unless they guy used to work on these cars. How do you find the Jetex exhaust?

I bought Shaun's, they replaced the fog and surrounds and the indi's clipped into them. I thought they were ok but the duct was taking the air away from my intercooler so I sold them on. Cannot remember who to though! :scratch:

Bloody hell that Tango'd one. Saw it in person at Knockhill many moons ago. It was as wide as it was long.

Not sure I'll make that. On another subject what size bore exhausts is everyone running? Currently have 3in downpipe straight through to a single rear silencer. Starting to get a few comments about the noise level from people living near the garage plus Im wanting to go for a subtle sound so Ive been looking at options. Would like my old Techtonics exhaust back on but thats not going to happen, been looking at the Jetex 2 box 2.5in system as well but I love the plain tailpipe of the current system. I still have the Techtonics long central silencer from my old car (and some elses car :wink: ) as seen at the top of the pic. Im getting a 300cell CAT welded into the front section so I was thinking of getting this section put in as well i.e. 3in down to 2.5in then back to 3in for the rear section. Anyone see issues with this or should it really be same bore throughout? My fluid dynamics knowledge has sadly passed and Im not overly fussed at loosing a few bhp. Theres plenty to go round :lol: .

Think that was a VR turbo and the dude was german. It has RS001's on it. Loved that car. Only other ones I remember from PVW were the 4wd TEC blue one, Venom's POS and a lovel black german one again on RS001's and running a KKK turbo. Havent bought a mag in about 8 years so dont know any recent ones.

Im liking that. They look a lot better than I thought they would.

Aye, it was black and a 16v IIRC. Thats why I wanted them.

Koesi Seneka's. Had them on my first Mk2 a long time ago, funnily enough they went the same way.

Ive PM'd. Discount will offset the £200+ fuel bill to get to Stealth.

:clap: , I want my old one back now.....is that still with the Techtonics exhaust?

If its a show car Id loose them.

Need some better photos but they look promising.

Fair enough then, nothing last forever as they say. Better to burn out than fade away!!!!!!!

Why did you cut the shell up, was it rotten?

I am intersted but have to juggle where my money is going at the moment. Ideally need a remap as well so it would tie in well getting this done at the same time. Maybe even day before the RR day if it goes ahead.

If I was at this stage and you were thinking of alternative - Audi 5cyl lump be it an old or new version. Nothing sounds better!!!

Decat - not worth it, throttle body - not worth it, dummy back in - yes. :wink:

Try using the search function on here as most of what you are asking will have been discussed. Get the thing running right then worry about some mods. How old is you car as that will have a bearing on the de-cat thing. Personally I wouldnt bother, Im putting one back in mine.

Yeah it runs fine 90% of the time. Ive still to change out the lambda probe but in terms of safe fuelling it appears to be ok. Im very tempted to get a 4mo and turbo it as I love them in the first place and I love Q cars so that would be spot on.

another 4wd corrado eh, and this time with a turbo... - mwahahahaha! :twisted: looking forward to watching it progress buddy :D TBH from the ones Ive had a 24v 4wd turbo would be epic. You being doing the work or getting someone else to do it? I would love 4wd but its also a bit of fun with 2wd as well. Let me know what day this is going to happen as its a 450mile one way journey for me. Good excuse to get some TC and mapping done.

You confirmed my fears. Not worth the hassle TBH then even if it is only about £500 at the moment.

Looking at another cheap 16v and it has some rust. The guy set this photo through of the fuel cap. Is this a hard item to repair or expensive?

Cheers. Took the plugs out tonight and seems its running fine now. Still stinks of fuel at some points. TBH the next step is looking at the exhaust as it needs to be quieter. I genuinely would like to start using this everyday but I think it would ruin it.

At that price Im in.
