Calling BTM exhaust owners!

[Sunglasses_Ron]

Is there anyone with a BTM exhaust that would like to go halves on a set of Prima Racing solid exhaust mounts?

Correct me if I'm wrong but these are just standard mounts with the rubber bushing removed and a polyurethane block fitted in its place? Seem very expensive for what they are! Just fill a standard one with silicon, worked for me (plenty stiffer)

Do this, fitted them to my 182. Much better.

Not sure why everyone has issues with Std Mounts tbh, I bought two new ones and they sit perfectly, Scorpion Zorst weighs half as much so will last twice as long in theory.

As said, rather than paying the high prices for the Prima mounts, just get a Powerflex rubber for a couple quid and you're done.

its designed to run a stock mount (buy a vetec one from GSF, cheaper and stronger than OE)

going solid may snap the brackets off the backbox as the exhaust HAS to be allowed to move

Agreed, the silicon mod i tried doesn't make the mount solid, just stiffens it up some

I disagree, thats why there is a flexi joint at the front, to allow the engine to move and the exhaust to stay still

 

[Fred@BTM]

i'll re-phrase, MY exhaust has to be allowed to move

and the movement is more than you think

and with solid mounts the exhaust vibrates the boot floor which makes it horrible to drive due to noise!

Cheers Fred. Noted. I'll get some new standard mounts.

Cheers.

I have tiger sealed rear mounts and my boot floor vibrates like a nutter on idle.
