Thanks- I thought it looked yellowier than the Renault shade. Giallo for the win!

So I’ve been having a bit of a nightmare I switched to a 172 coil pack after ditching the r8 coils and it hasn’t started since turns out a 172 coil pack doesn’t have an igniter (whatever that is) so the adaptronic won’t run it so the custom made bracket custom ht leads all are useless yay

On top of that by using the 172 coil it may. Have damaged my ecu double yay

So to solve the immediate problem I’m now using some sort of vw coil with a built in igniter and some random leads which are look like they won’t fit that nicely but they will fit and have had to get a new custom bracket made but that at least that looks great

Here’s the custom downpipe I had made I decided to go over the subframe as I hated the last one going under

 

[Williamspaul]

New oil feed to clear the downpipe and over the subframe instead of under

 

[Williamspaul]

I went for a valved system so I can have it loud and very quiet

Love your project 💯. Great seeing it come together, real nice work and parts. It’s going to be epic.

That will be pretty quiet with 3 silencers in. My trophy has two decent silencers on a 3" system and barely makes any noise.

I would have got the cutout pre silencers for maximum asbo

 

[Williamspaul]

Small update it now runs and drives it doesn’t idle yet but mapping is on Saturday hopefully that will get sorted out

Mate that exhaust is a work of art!! Fair play.

It’s. Actually a valved system that I can switch between one box and three so I can have the best of both worlds Asbo and quiet

 

[Williamspaul]

So mapping happened today car surpassed all my expectations safe to say I’m very happy with the results and yes it is insanely fast

 

[16V F7R]

Awesome 🙌 🙌

 

[Yosemite Sam]

Bravo 👏🏻

 

[Yosemite Sam]

[Adey.]

[Yarp]

It deserves those results for that absolute work of art exhaust.

Is that 26.9 psi? What’s the max you could push that too?

Yeah 26.9 psi the turbo had more to give but we were at the safe limits of the fuel pump so had to call it a day there

 

[Brigsy]

Great power. Out of interest, any difference to power with exhaust valve open or closed?

 

[Williamspaul]

Yes there was a power difference 3bhp I suppose that shows how good the exhaust is
