also if i need to cut the new exhaust what should i use, hacksaw or what?

Depends what back box you've got a cheap universal one just hacksaw your old one off as far back and get a garage to weld it on.

A proper one for a CLio etc would have some pipe on it so you'd have a sleave made up so the two bits of pipe don't leak etc.

An expensive exhaust would come with the whole setup catback with all the connectors you need.

Cannnot realy bolt the back box on unless the pipes match very lcose then you could use exhaust paste and cut a slot in the outer pipe and use a claimp to hold it on.

i have a centre section you can use for that.

PM me for details.

Or a full K-tec K6 cat back system

You can see the original weld on the box that a garage did for me mate. My Clio was a 2002 1.2 16v aswell so you won't have many problems at all getting it on. Just get it to a garage to get a snug fit

 

[Fred@BTM]

he will have to chop his OE centre section to fit it

were will i have to cut? is it a job i can do myself? if not who can do it? ie kwick fit? and how much?

 

[Fred@BTM]

[MOFO]

well i fit a new shower screen the other day? lol. what does it intail?

 

[tommyboy]

I'd leave it for a garage to do mate or get hold of someone you know who might be able to do it. Your getting a backbox for cheap that's awesome imo, I loved it on my Clio, and the money your saving on backbox you can put towards getting it fitted flush at a garage

 

[MOFO]

how much did you pay?

 

[MOFO]

how much will a garage charge?

 

[rob192]

Not a great deal, between 10 and 30 quid I should think. I had a quote for 25 to fit the beast on my car.

 

[ben_p]

you wont be able to do it. take it to a garage.

Hacksaw to cut the pipe.

You#'ve two options then either fit it and get the new one welded on or get a cover and use that to bridge the distance between the two systems.
