next need some decent alloys, exhaust and remap
Title: Re: rear anni petrol valance q
Post by: Rhyso on 22 August 2009, 19:52: £900 to get it back on the road don't sound too bad mate :smiley:

at least you stuck with it - could have been very easy to scrap it
Title: Re: rear anni petrol valance q
Post by: navmk4gti on 22 August 2009, 19:55: yh i was literally standing between a guy who wants to buy it off me and the body shop woner lol

pray tell how a larger pipe AFTER the turbo will affect it's spool.. when the manifold, and therefore "back pressure" before the turbo.. where the spooling force comes from, is left unchanged :huh:

I don't mean to sound like a miserable c*nt but this whole back pressure myth (created by honda owners i believe) really bugs me... exhaust pulsing and gas velocity really isn't that hard to get your head around if you know the basic workings of a 4 stroke motor.

system made
if i am getting a cat back what size do you think i should do the pipework?? :smiley:
Title: Re: rear anni petrol valance q
Post by: topher on 23 August 2009, 00:07: won't make much difference performance-wise as long as you don't go smaller than the outlet of the cat.. anything bigger than that is just added noise and weight (and more chance of banging as it goes over the rear beam)
Title: Re: rear anni petrol valance q
Post by: navmk4gti on 23 August 2009, 00:25: hmm what is it standard then?? 2.5" sounds ok then.. dont want it to be that load jus nice deep tone .. im mainly doing it for the looks
