Kink it and you'll get a flat spot lol
I've noticed that with the K-tec designed exhaust and the milltek they have both gone with 2 back boxes rather than the same shape as the standard 197 back box
I think the key is that the standard exhaust gives just the right back pressure to...
If you get rid of the sensors you will certainly get the engine management light on, You can however get this turned off by "clipping" the car
Decat pipes are not that expensive to buy, they should be pretty straight forward to do yourself too as long as you have the right measurements and get...
110%
cat is still there
I've been under the car and seen the work my self... silencer gone and straight pipe put in place
its defo back pressure related imo as the 197 back box is a single flat looking section.. the 182's have 2 boxes which is better for back pressure or so i was told.. as...
My 182 sounded very good without its centre section and was hoping the 197 would sound ok
I read all the threads regarding De-cats and flat spots so as i was keeping the cat still i expected it to add a tiny bit more noise and still have the benefit of no flat spots etc
WRONG !
Flat spot...
Oh dear :S
Definately don't want my diffuser melting
If i'm honest i haven't searched for many vids as i've been pretty busy but i will defo have a look for some later
The sound of the exhaust on the K-tec vid is just right for me, I don't want chavvy loud or anything that will fall apart...
Take one standard 197 exhaust
Remove the middle silencer

Ear bleeding loud, Flat spot between 2-3k :(
Not happy.. Havent taken it on the motorway since but i suppose when i go to K-Tec to get it done it'll not be an enjoyable drive
Thank's for the reply, I've heard Milltek have improved ten fold so i'm definately swinging in that direction, I defo do not want a yozzasport though tbh - They are ear bleeding loud iirc and to me sound like a chav mobile
I knew you'd come to my rescue
So you reckon the Milltek is good...

You can buy my b'day drink then boyo ;)
TBH your welcome to pop over anytime though Rob

Ok so my middle silencer developed a hole :S
I decided that as funds were tight i didnt want to splash out on a new exhaust just yet so i drove to a local exhaust fitting centre and had them cut off the middle silencer and weld in a straight pipe
BAD MISTAKE !!
Not only has it developed a...
Re: South East Dent/scratch repair day
You beat me to it !
Yep as Craig has said i've got a kid due anytime now so things are getting pretty hectic at the mo, I am going to call Scott in the morning and confirm that the event will be taking place at :-
The Grass Hopper Public House...
Wing has come out of place by the look of things, Does the door have creases ? Does the door creak on opening if no then i presume its a wing replacement
Slammed
Silver visions
Turinis
No wait then it'll be like every other 182 lol..
If you defo want to mod it be different fella as most look the same on here, Good luck with the project
MK 1 RS Turbo are fecking Lush... Mint example are selling for mega coinage
Tuned and in the right hands they will show a lot of cars up
