and how long till it gets raspier ??, it pops now and again, but when will it pop more :oops:

thanks :)

[gixxa]

id say no, looks like an mot failier like that

[Prickle]

how is it a mot failure ?? if i cut a inch of the tip of it will it affect the exhaust note ??

[Steve]

ad say yes on a 1.1.

[Proffitt]

If you fitted it correctly, then i would say yes to.

Dont no about getting more raspier and popping more often, you only got a 1.1. It may do after the exhaust is 'bedded' in a little :y:

[cj_99]

looks alright to me mine sticks out quite far to, is it connected the supersprint centre section to? or OE?

[Mystic]

If you want more rasp you'll need a manifold, decat & straight through pipe. Sounds like you've just fitted the backbox with the standard exhaust in place?

[Prickle]

its connected to the standard centre section, could you show me a image of yours please

[Prickle]

well im not expecting it too be mint, ive just fitted it today, im just wondring if i cut a inch of the end of the exhaust will it affect the exhaust note, because imo it sticks out a bit far

[Mystic]

I dont have a supersprint on mine, a guy from Edinburgh bought one and i had a quick shot with it on my car & it was very loud & very raspy! That was with a 4-2-1 manifold and the straight through pipe & supersprint backbox from Kam!

Cutting the exhaust tip wont change the tone much, if at all!

[Prickle]

im thinking about it, just a inch so its a bit from the bumper, i just want to check in case i fuck up the exhaust

[dynebaruk]

Write off.

[Prickle]

Write off.

i dont think so tbh, why would it be a write off, its meant to be ok for all saxo's

[dynebaruk]

LMFAO

You just made me cry.

[Prickle]

good lol :p

[dynebaruk]

On topic..

Can't see why cutting an inch off the end would have any bad effect on the exhaust.

Going to have to change your avatar now, exciting times.

will have no effect cutting off an inch from the tip.

With the o/e centre and manifold its never going to sound like a rally car. Give it a little time to bed in and it will get better

nah exhaust looks fine to me but someone has posted a thread somewhere on here about what is checked on an mot so if u have a look it should say but i shouldnt think it be a problem m8!

[Prickle]

ive got my standard one for mot incase, but it is road legal *i hope*

[gixxa]

how is it a mot failure ?? if i cut a inch of the tip of it will it affect the exhaust note ??
if it sitcks out to far from the car it can be seen as a hazzard to pedestrians

[Prickle]

its only 1 inch from the bumper lol, it isnt 2 or 3 inchs sticking out lol
