well exhaust was sitting there, so started off trial

 

 

unfortunately it hit the subframe without a 10mm spacer

 

 

gave the subframe a quick lick of paint

 

 

And then bought this 12mm stainless flange, which i am going to use as a spacer

 

 

gearbox is almost out but havent had much time to finish of removing it or finish the exhaust.

I’d love a pax in your car at some point Joe. Or a drive bet it’s an animal on track. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

passenger seat is always available, just need some ear plugs as the vtec makes alot of noise!!

 

its a very different animal to the vx to drive, the no brake servo and cable throttle make for a much more aggressive drive jsut ask lee

+1 and I need a pax ride before you fit the hair dryer to get the full NA experience. Itll be nice to go out in a car with some decent torque! What kind of hp do you expect from the exhaust change?

[The Batman]

decent torque?!!?! you definately arent talking about my car then

 

the rotrex wont be going on for atleast a year.

 

I would be really happy if i got an extra 10bhp, im going to use a different mapper this time though

[ditonics]

They only torque Joe has come from his mouth, definitely not his sowing machine.

I hope with the engine won't rock forwards and backwards too much, best check that spacer will be enough when you are accelerating/de accelerating hard. I found that even with the yellow polly front + rear inserts my engine rocks around about 1 inch.

 

5 studs for the manifold is a bit tight arsed isn't it ?!

5 bolts is nice and lightweight Whats more annoying is the bolt heads are 14mm as 13 is unlucky! I will check, there should be about 10mm clearance with this which is about the same clearance the engine has to the bulkhead and there isnt signs of it touching so we will soon see! Will get the scuffers hammer out if it does

[rob999]

Whos doing the mapping then secret squirrel?

[Zoobeef]

Bash away to your hearts content.

Yeah I saw that a while back!

Yea, I saw it too ages ago, show the difference between the theory vs practice. As often as not the scruffy stuff functions better than the shiney so called "pro/race/go faster" stuff. Reminds me of my own Franenstein exhaust pipe, it looks bad, but works amazingly.

Facing facts would be too much for those in question.
