172 cup standard exhaust

[scalino65]

Hi. Is it still possible to buy the standard exhaust from cat back for a 172 cup? I want to quieten things down on my car.

no longer available unfortunately, ive got one of THESE on mine and its not quite as quiet as the standard system although mine does have a decat, but its certainly not loud

Many thanks Martin. Can I ask did it fit ok? Seems very good value if it fits. Will probably get one and see. I can't keep welding up my old powerful system forever!

as far as lengths and dimensions go, its spot on, no knocking etc on anything, I will say, its SUPER light too!!! - Pipework diameter is all good to, no restrictions.

only slight issue I had with mine was the sleeve where the back box slides over the centre section wasn't the best so the clamp even when ramped tight, didn't seal perfectly, I'm going to get my mate to weld a few flanges on so I can just bolt it tight, but its been fine for over a year like that and hasn't physically come loose!

this is the only video I've got of it! - keep in mind it also has a decat

Hi mate, sorry to bring up an old thread but the link on your original reply has expired so I was wondering if you could tell me what exhaust you went for on your car please? I'm looking to replace my terrible Ktec stealth system with as close to standard as possible or at least some quieter like yours so any advice would be great. Cheers. Ben

spot on thanks mate, I think I might take a punt on that hoffman exhaust as it's a reasonable enough price. I'll let you know if it fits!

Afternoon all, so the Hoffmann eBay spec exhaust is now fitted and I’ve retained the Ktec sports cat and it fits pretty well.👍
