Default Exhaust Problem Solved

This is my solution regarding the problem i listed in this thread,
https://www.scoobynet.com/wales-26/5...t-problem.html

The back box i bought is a few inches short to be able to reach the centre pipe.

My Back Box


Thanks to my old man we measured up and worked out the angles and he came up with this solution see the pics below.

Hasn't been welded up completly yet but you get the idea from this picture


From flange face to face the distance is 3 and 3 quarter inches


Bored out on this end at 3inches to match the size of the back box pipe


This end is only bored out to 2 and half inches to get a good seal with the centre section




I've also got a centre section off of ebay that will be going on today and hopefully shall have the back box and the make up section in place and shall get some photos uploaded to show you peeps how it all fits.

This is what the finished product looks and sounds like, not a bad job if i do say so myself.

Its sitting rather close to the bumper i need to alter one of the rubbers but you get the idea



Heres the makeup piece in place and all welded up and smoothed off, oh and theres the tail end of the centre de-cat pipe.


Heres a link to a short short vid of the car and what the exhaust sounds like

Enjoy, Melon
