[KamRacing]

[moxy89]

thats looks banging!!!!!

[Dave_P]

Where did you get it made from Dave?

Graeme Wight Racing made it for me. He's also doing a carbon fibre lip spoiler/splitter & diffuser for me at some point.... Got them sitting in your garage too Mark 1311? :p

The silencer isn't a motorbike one btw. ;)

I dunno the weight yet, just a few kg's I think.

[Davo106]

2" from mani or bigger?

[KamRacing]

I'd say thats a 2 1/4 knowing Daves power

[Dave_P]

Correct, Its a 2.25" system.

[Jay_]

So...How much did that cost then? ;)

[Dave_P]

Dunno aint got the car back yet.

If you were in the market for the lightest exhaust available that would you pay?

[mark1311]

yer some the stuff i have at work you would't believe lol;)....

i will weigh it later its cat back, 2.5 with 3inch out let. its dam light though lol.

one i have cost about £195...

[jpsaxo]

PM me a price for one as I'm in the Market for an exact copy of yours Dave, will also need to be 2.25inch

[Davo106]

As above lol.

[adamskiTNR]

Dave have you got proflex rear dampers?

[Dave_P]

PM me a price for one as I'm in the Market for an exact copy of yours Dave, will also need to be 2.25inch

The only issue is my maniflow manifold may be a different size/connection from your manifold.

Dave have you got proflex rear dampers?

Yes, 3 way adjustable ones. :)

[mark1311]

Yes, 3 way adjustable ones. :)

Whore!

[adamskiTNR]

[MiniGibbo]

Very nice exhaust!!

They're was a saxo at Donny earlier in the year with a similar system.

[Dave_P]

Its all custom made.

[mark1311]

looks tidy, try get some gd close up of back back and some of the welds if u dont mind dude, might be intrested in a back back with 2.5inch in let for a boost project:P

[Dave_P]

Look familiar?

[mark1311]

niceee, get some prices up for just back box if u can mate or pm me

[jpsaxo]

My manifold should be roughly same length as a maniflow so no issue. I will need one roughly march next year, PM me the price so I have a rough idea, cheers Dave

[Dave_P]

Mark, i'd need to know o/a length, silencer o/d & length req.

My manifold should be roughly same length as a maniflow so no issue. I will need one roughly march next year, PM me the price so I have a rough idea, cheers Dave

I'll see what i can do. How does your system attach to the manifold, a sleeve & clamp?

[jpsaxo]

I won't know until march ish when I get the custom manifold back, but just get me a rough cost that's fine Dave

[adamskiTNR]

Predator v10 is an impressive vehicle. The sound of an f1 engine whaling into the distance in the scottish hills is a very perculiar thing indeed

[Dave_P]

A few more pics.

106 Rallye with GWR carbon/stainless lightweight exhaust - YouTube

[adamskiTNR]

Does scotland even have noise limits

[Dave_P]

?
105db I think.

[dannygti]

Dave what's GW's new car? What's he competing in? Just Scottish events?

My mate owns force racing cars, Graeme probably knows him..

Cars looking good. What tear suspension setup do you use now dave?

[Dave_P]

GW isn't driving a car just now but his latest built car is called a Raptor, driven by Lee Adams. Lee is doing the British hillclimb c'ship and has won a few run offs this season which is quite impressive considering the car uses a bike engine.

My rear end: preflex 3 way dampers, 25mm t bars/arb & poly race bushes.

[dannygti]

Good stuff dave, will have to look out for him

[Dave_P]

Loton park hillclimb this weekend. ;)

I think it was a Force that won the Scottish hillclimb c'ship this year. :)

Wow glad you reminded me mate :)


Yer Ian has build some very fast cars and his drivers are v good.

[slammed106]

now that looks proper!!

but you could save a bit of weight if it didn`t have to kink around the std tank...

[Dave_P]

I did have to kink around the std tank though. ;)

The 5 litre tank i used to have under the bonnet is a bit small for circuit use.

[slammed106]

ahhhh i see... i did wonder what happened to the "mini" tank under the bonnet..

i`m assuming the back box is the only silencer???

how come GWR (or you) decided to go for that arrangement as i know the MAXi`s only had a small box under the tunnel and then straight tube all the way out to the back:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/slammed106/mon%20dieu%20%20MAXIs/prepa106_22.jpg

its not a dig... just a curiosity...

[Dave_P]

Because unlike the French tarmac rally car i have to pass a 105db noise test... ;)

[JamesR]

Awesome bit of kit mate

[slammed106]

ahhh purely noise based... just wondered if the location of the box made any diference to power...

cetainly looks the part.. must be good to ditch the wobbly pug rubber hangers too..

[Dave_P]

The exhaust is a weight saving measure 1st & foremost. Power wise I found in fast road set up they pick up a bit better in the midrange with a box around the cat area but midrange power isn't what my engine is built for.
