@M.C.. This was my reply this morning to the email.
Hello, unfortunately I no longer make exhausts due to the growing number of people booking cars in and not showing and constantly moaning about price I've reluctantly decided to quit , sorry Phil
its above 900 but under 1000. Surely it cant be that accurate :p.
I phoned the bloke who owned it before me and he said it has had a remap. He didn't have any reason to bs me as I bought it from a car dealer he had traded it into. I will plug @bob the builder RS tuner in on Saturday. Will it...
ah fair play, cheers foe that mate. I might pop round to a local exhaust place tomorrow then and see what they can do. Is there an oem style of stealth tailpipe or am I just tucking it in as best to make it not visible?
only the tailpipe from the back @Daniel
I will get underneath tomorrow if it hasn't snowed overnight as forecasted.
just out of curiosity, what are my best options for a decent back box? I'm looking for a nice rasp at higher revs but not a massive boom. I presume its the back box which dictates...
cheers for the quick reply's, will a new silencer change the tone?
£100 better than forking out for a new system for the time being seeing as its got a sports cat on it already.
To somehow keep my custom system but just have it stealth instead of a chavvy tailpipe hanging out the back?
I don't want to lose the tone it gives off but just lose the visible tailpipe.
its a longlife system fitted where Charlie at prospeed used to work so its decent.
couldn't get the vids to upload so took screenshots. obviously one when cold and one when warm. It hit the limiter on the second red notch after 7 in second gear.
wow, bit of an update here.
After debating wether or not my car had the 98ron map mod I had a search around and tried a few things.
Firstly, it was idling at 1100rpm cold and dropping to 900-950 when warm.
Secondly, i was told if it hits the limiter at 7500rpm in 2nd then it has probably been...
cluck me....
looks like im going to have to go down the lanes now then... I will tell the popo im just checking something.
so if my rev counter goes over that then i have it? or will the needle keep going up?
right, had a bit more of a read about it from various threads on here and ive found out a few things.
I've read that the 98ron map idles at 1100rpm cold and settles down to a steady 900 when warm.
Mine does exactly this already. So does this mean mine is already running the map?
Knowing my...
wow, just read through the FAQ section on the rs tuner website and I'm more confused now than before.
it says something about a wideband connector?
not sure I need that do I?
also, does the engine have to be running when you have it all plugged in from start to finish?
sorry about the...
will have to see what the weather is doing now with all this snow forecast for tonight and tomorrow. Don't want to get caught up in it and have to travel an hour.
seeing as most of the people coming have dropped out do you want to change it to 7pm so I have more of a chance of getting there...
