I got hold of a used Sportex exhaust over the weekend.
I've never really been a fan of twin tips or centre exits but the silencer is a straight through type and used by the recent CityCar Cup series so it has some pedigree at least.
After a bit of hunting through scrap bins at the local garages I came across some suitable 38mm pipe and set about modifying it more to my taste...
It was pretty scary cutting up a new purchase


The gasless welds aren't the prettiest but they do the job.
I had a bit of a race on this evening getting it back together and high-tailing it over the Pennines before last orders at the pub where a friend of mine was staying for the night
It sounded absolutely epic on the way there though, much racecar. I find it a huge improvement over the standard twin tip, it's less of the warbly 'trying to be something its not' and more just no-frills rally car.
It'll flow better than the standard 180-degree-bend pipe too.
I gave it a lick of paint before it went on, to keep the rust at bay.
I'll try to put an audio/visual update together tomorrow.
