AngelWorks Technologies - V6 exhaust

JJ172 · Jan 31, 2005

Thanks for correcting my English!! Loony has rephrased it perfectly.

To be honest, Im not one for overly loud exhausts - it might sound great for the first 10 minutes but you soon get tired of it. Depends how/how often you drive your car.

Dust · Jan 31, 2005

Wow, that sounds awesome!

mitch_ · Jan 31, 2005

I know what you mean. If I was using it every day I wouldnt have opted for it. But luckily its a second car and Ive invested in some ear plugs too!!

Lol, its not THAT loud!

A quieter system, possibly, but its all been developed now and altering the system design, especially internal baffles is something i would have to check to make sure it doesnt affect cost. If your interested i will certainly get on the case.

Performance should not be affected, so long as the baffle design isnt majorly altered.

leave the covering off then you wil lknow what loud is, cant hear the radio even on full volume!

prices!! prices!!

BenR · Jan 31, 2005

iwantaV6 · Jan 31, 2005

and me, also details of T.Bodies please.

BenR · Jan 31, 2005

TBs aswell!

lol, ok, ill get that to you aswell.

JJ172 · Feb 1, 2005

Cheers for the prices via PM BenR

... and for clarifying there wasnt a typo in all those zeros in it!! A beautifully crafted system and no doubt well worth the investment for the power increase alone for those with plenty of spare cash! Great to see someone investing time in improving the Vee too....keep up the great work!

i think its great. there is nobody that is tuning the V6 and now Ben has some monster tuning packages available, which is quiet exciting, maybe i dont need that TVR after all.

JJ172 · Feb 1, 2005

TVR?! Even the Renault doesnt rattle as much as a TVR, and its probably more reliable!!

mitch_ · Feb 2, 2005

In a strange kind of way the V6 is more special than a TVR. I used to be a TVR dealer years ago. The Chimaera and Griffith were the best cars they ever made and its been downhill ever since. Get one of Bens exhausts and youll forget all about TVRs believe me.

JJ172 · Feb 2, 2005

mitch_ >> how about making an in-car vid/soundtrack to allow us all to experience the BenR tuned Vee?!

mitch_ · Feb 2, 2005

Ill do my best to record something tomorrow. Ill try and do some proper stuff outside as thats where she really shines.

Mitch

SimonV6 · Feb 2, 2005

Will look forward to that then......

Simon.

iwantaV6 · Feb 2, 2005

ah but a TVR tuscan R is frighteningly fast!

anyhow, im not going to part with the Vee for a while yet, throttle bodies here i come!!

BenR · Feb 2, 2005

Well, i lie....first time it started about 15 people from building nxt door came to see what was running lol.

JJ172 · Feb 2, 2005

Im guessing throttle bodies are megabucks...

When fitting this exhaust ( or any other ) do you need to adjust the engine management thingy wotsit?

Nope, you dont have to.

But ofcourse, things are optimised if you do and will result in a stronger, more linear AFR graph.....thus more torque and power than the system alone.

Slugger · Feb 3, 2005

Is there still a benefit to matching the inlet and exhaust manifold? Or is that irrelevant with this new exhaust?

W

BenR · Feb 3, 2005

Exhaust manifold is fine, no need to touch it.

But inlet is always beneficial.

SimonV6 · Feb 3, 2005

How does the law stand on De-Cat exhausts? will there be a problem with my first MOT in 2 years time?

Simon.

BenR · Feb 3, 2005

as long as you pass your emissions test its fine. and you will as the mot emissions test is nothing like the euro4 emissions laws the car is designed to meet.

JJ172 · Feb 4, 2005

mitch - wheres that in-car vid? We all want to hear your Vee on full chat!!

mitch_ · Feb 4, 2005

Sorry JJ I didnt get to do it yesterday, its going to take me a little while but Ill let you know when Ive managed it. The system has settled down now and Im loving it to little pieces. Cant wait to take her on track now.

Mitch

Andy GDI · Feb 4, 2005

with the gains this exhaust is making, mapping may well produce a smoother power curve. along with the inlet manifold work it will be a much more powerfull and tractable car to drive....

the SMT7 will work on the V6 to optimise the power and delivery. should be interesting

I will offer a development price to the first person who wishes to take up the SMT7 on the V6 and get it mapped.

Grrrr damn you Andy

Need more money need more money

Andy GDI · Feb 4, 2005
