New Exhaust Fitted (56K Warning)

Post by **PaulW** » Thu Feb 10, 2005 6:46 pm

Well the time finally came to fit my new exhaust! Been waiting nearly 2 weeks to do it cos my knee has been fooked & is still hurtin pretty bad! Still... the sort of things people do when bored

Up on the ramps, ready to begin!

This is to be binned... Standard ruibbish!

This was replaced as new when I got the car 4 months ago...

This was \'supposedly\' replaced with the backbox... yeah right!

Took only a few mins and the old backbox was off!

Damn centre section just wouldnt budge so drastic measures were needed...for the Stubborn Stains!

Damn thing was well stuck on! So used a combination of Hammer, Chissel, Grinder & swearing...

Will it come off?? Who knows! Its like its welded on!

Finally got the damn Center Section off! Yay for Me!

Old 2-piece Standard Crap vs New 3-piece Lexmaul Grp-N System

Finally after a few mins, the new system is fitted & gummed up!

Plenty of clearance for when its lowered!

Looks so much better & is a real good fit!

Definately looks a hell of alot better!

All in, not bad for a few hours work due to the damn center section being stubborn

Was quite raspy when I first started it & drive it, but after a few mins that soon went & was really nice sounding! Also the engine is revving a hell of alot easier now & seems to feel more pokier! Also considering there isnt a centre silencer, its not too loud!

All in I\'m well chuffed

Â£202 from Regal (including delivery)

but they have limited stock!

Came with everything, clamps, hanging rubbers, lil clips to keep them in place... all I needed to get extra was some FireGum exhaust sealent to fit it!

Unlucky for some, i have a nice big garage where i live, complete with underground pit, plus my dads a plumber so he has every tool for a job. Unfortunatley my bro\'s skate ramp takes up half the shed lol.
