mate take the trims off before they melt
Cheers Tom, will probably try and get the carbon fibre ones made, they should take the heat better.
:cool:

looks very nice but two silencers !!?? lol i guess when my credit card can take it ill be leading the way forward with the loudest mofo exhaust to be fitted to a 182.
Loony, I spoke to them today about doing the single box, with twin pipes...
You usually lose approx about 15% at the wheels, so as standard it would have 179bhp at the flywheel, minus 15% = 158bhp at the wheels?
Therefore, your reading of 167bhp equates to 192bhp. An increase of 13bhp. Sounds about right to me? :confused:
Some quick pics of fitting today.
Bye bye standard system

Zorst fitted this morning! I am a verry happy boy, it sounds absolutely wicked! Thanks Eddie and Ian @ H&S! :D
Good to meet you Ian, and Dad!, Hope you made it back to Brum in one piece? Still straight? I do hope so! ;)

Hmmm, carbon fibre might be the way forward here. Ill give carbon nut, a call in the morning, see how much a couple would cost. I can see a group buy coming on? Tom, Ian? They do something similar already for BMW M3 I see. :)
Yeah, I think Tom said his was moving, but I didnt think side to side?
And his surrounds have melted as well! Bloody expensive to replace @ that price!!! Maybe a 3" tail might be another option?
Its going to be a fun day on Saturday? :confused:

PMSL!!I hope I never get a puncture, I wouldnt even know where to put the jack (well, apart from somewhere under the car, obviously).I also need to investigate my locking wheel nuts as I have no idea how to get them off!
Might be...
^^^^ Same here! There is a drainage hole that you can get your finger through, you might be able to get it here, or I used some of those double sided, sticky fixers, on a opened-out coat hanger. Otherwise, remove the tray.
I dont feel such a numbtie now, that someone else has done the same...
Saw one coming into Brands on Sunday, we had Black, Blue and Yellow, all together. Looked really good! You cannot miss the yellow one, you will get lots of attention!!! :D
Not sure mate! Do I qualify, as Im originally from Bangor, although now live in London? LOL
When I had mine over in December, I was getting some really amazing looks and questions. It it seriously quick over the back roads of Co.Down! Handles the bumps well! I should bring it back over later...
N, 182s- catback £440, any tail pipe.
Loony sounds cool mate, not sure whether the existing mounts would fit, but like I said, H&S can custom make whatever you want? Give them a call to discuss it. Might be Expensive. Ask for Ian. 01268 727256.
