Few exhaust / manifold questions

[AdamWhy]

I have the full supersprint race only system and its rattling against the heatsheild and its really annoying! Ive tried moving the exhaust but it wont budge, ive also tried hammering the heatsheild. Any ideas?

Next up i have a 4-2-1 manifold, i got it cheap and its in great condition, just wondering whether or not to put it on as it is loud atm and i dont want a crazy loud car. Any one got the full race system and a 4-2-1?

Also do i have to put a brand new manifold gasket on??

Just take the heatshield off lol!

I'm assuming your cat is in the manifold so id expect it to get a bit louder, but i could be wrong!

Personally i'd change the gasket just to be sure :)

Nah the cat was under the car mate, the first of the MK2's...

Isit safe to pull the heatsheild off??

Thanks

none of my cars have had heatsheilds on mate
only 1 to keep is the one under the tank (kinda obvius why lol)

the mani will just change the note a bit they dont really mate it much louder

[AdamWhy]

Will it be a better note or will i lose the sexual rasp??

[AlexB]

will add rasp

[AdamWhy]

Ah OK... Not sure ot can get raspier than it already is haha!! Thanks

[AlexB]

[AdamWhy]

does it still pop the same, or in theory it should pop more??

[Jimmy-Boy]

less restrictions so i would imagine would pop more bud.
