Yozza Exhaust help and new bullets

[richy22]

Yep another media thread tonite

I currently have a Yozza Race System on the Monaco and basically I want to get it raised up into the bumper as its looking a bit s**t from a distance

Latest photo taken tonight..Yeah it needs a clean and polish!

And some older ones

See what I mean it hangs down a bit?? So I wanted to know if its easy to have it cut into the bumper or if its worth doing that??

From looking underneath all id need to do is loosen the bracket around it and lift it up then re-tighten??

Also had a play with my spare bullets not finished yet though

Prefered the old bullets if im honest

I cut the recess into my cups bumper a few weeks back to recess my exhaust. Firstly worked out where the exhaust would sit in the bumper. Secondly I marked out the recess (using the trim as a template), cut the initial recess using a tile saw with a tungsten carbide blade (1 or 2 mm in from the final edge). I finished it off by filing the remaining last few mm off until the trim fit, then pivoted the backbox round, where its attached on the centre section, until it fit in the recess. Final result can be seen here :

I got it from www.roadrunnermotorsport.co.uk, but you can also get them from piper direct - it takes 1 day to fabricate to normally a 2 day lead time delivered IIRC.

no chance raising it up fella, not unless you start chopping up the backbox

 

[richy22]

really fred? I thought u could undo the bracket that goes around it and do it that way?

I raised mine up by getting a powerflex exhaust hanger. It sits right under the bumper now

 

[Fred@BTM]

yeah you can get it up so its just touching the bumper, but you won't get it up into the bumper, the centre section is too high, you'd have to modify the backbox

Got the same exhaust on mine and i hated the way it sat so i got mine up into my bumper
took it to longlife exhaust and they changed it but still keeping the great sound
which i was bit worried about losing heres a few pics

 

[gex23]

^Thats the supersport not the race system - maybe a different fitment?

 

[FlameR172]

ye just noticed that im sure any exhaust garage could modify it so its raised?

 

[Fred@BTM]

yeah i can't see why it can't be done, bit of cutting and welding and bish bash bosh

 

[richy22]

Arse more expense!

May just replace the mounts as my one is shot to bits.. get it as close to the bumper as possible.

 

[Fred@BTM]

plus if you chop it - bye bye warranty

Tbh I think once its pulled up so its sitting directly under the bumper it will look a lot better.

Also - get that car cleaned! :rasp:
