Guys

 

as part of my build i am going wide body , the rear apron is a strosek type with two oval apertures and an adjoining "split" i will need to get a new exhaust and would love to get a twin 2x3" back box arrangment .....im not sure how this will look with the rear apron does anyone have a wide body with exhausts they can post up ..i want something that looks right ..sounds burbly ..but not intrusive at speed on the motor way .....any advice warmly recieved

For twin 3" and not 'intrusive' on the motorway, then I'd suggest the Mongoose

I for one can not recommend the Mongoose exhaust - sadly.

A lot of people have had good ones, but not me. Be wary.

Steve take a look at the last picture in "my rides" is that what you're after?

i must admit the exhaust does fill the spaces where it is designed to stick out of the apron ....i had a picture in my mind of twin twins but that would need the rear apron working on etc .....is that a complete exhaust from zed centre ? is at 3" piping ?

 

could you PM me please as i need to budget for the exhaust , wide body fitting , painting, etc ....my car is currently with Jeff at zedworld. is the exhaust burbly over too loud mate honestly it looks like it would drown out a brass band ...

Twins! on what looks like a standard rear valance.

 

My exhaust is fairly quiet, (although I will be de-catting soon :gun_bandana:) It's the standard one from Z Centre.

Have you got your de-cat pipes yet? If not I'm about to post a thread over the weekend in the For Sale section, has I have a pair of brand new de-cats and a pair of used Megan devorced down pipes, if you're interested? ;)

what size pipework dave im after 3" and are the megans 5 bolt ? will they fit PE1420 turbos

after seeing that black wide arch i think i prefer your set up with singles i think the twins will be too much ........i would like rolled lips ..why does this post sound smutty ???

If your after 3in piping mate, which is a good idea with your build. Then your looking at either custom manufacture or import from the likes of SpecialtyZ who developed 3in systems some time ago.

 

Personally I would go with the latter.

All the other well known brands will normally be 2.5in.

hth and good luck with things now you have the Zed back and know what's going on with it :-)

Pretty sure my Veilside is a 3" system. Not available anymore though unfortunately.

They are all standard sizes bud and four bolt.

Steve, have a look at my rides section. Had my exhaust made up by Leon at Alunox, if you do search, theres alot of praise for his work.

If you're considering a Mongoose then Jeff's post here is sound advice....

I bought the Blue Flame item and it is a top quality item. At the time it was also less than £300 delivered - so cheaper than the Mongoose!

 

Richard:batman:

ill have a look at the allunox system saw a few zeds running blue flame exhausts

 

idealy i would love a slash cut twin twin rolled lip design but ..hens teeth isnt in it .....
