Ashley exhaust systems

[Sparco_Tom]

Alright guys, ive got an ashley exhaust on my vtr at the moment, its currently center silenced, rear silenced and has the cat in.

If i was to remove the cat and get a straight through center section how loud would the system be?
I know if i put my de-cat back in it will improve performance slightly but if i was to get a straight through center pipe would that improve performance at all?


I tried the search button but i am hoping for some ashley specific replies

removing the center box will cause resonation so it will be louder but at times can be very annoying on a long drive.

as for de cats a straight through pipe isnt the answer all the time to optimum performance, in some cases de catting can cause a loss of torque, which is why the old 106 xsi (expansion chamber de cats) were so effective, just a shame they stopped production

[Sparco_Tom]

im still going to have the rear silencer on which hopefully will calm the noise, would you suggest i leave the center silencer in?

yes peronally after having a few systems on my car, the straight through pipe was fucking annoying on long trips, it resonated far worse, and imo the system with 3 silencers ran better and gave me better fuel economy aswell.

[Sparco_Tom]

cheers chap, its got the 3inch exit, think i will just put the de-cat back in....that will increase noise anyways. get the popping back in the exhaust :)

[craigy_87]

sorry for the thread hijack but i have a ashley backbox and am looking for a new centre section with a silencer as i dont want it to resonate and drone as said by Itsafastworld, anyone make any suggestions?

[Sparco_Tom]

ring remus of ashley they do the center sections cheap

[leeroybrown]

I thought the ashley backs aint OE fit as you have to slide the back box into the middle section

Well you did on mine so i cant see anyother midldle pipes fitting

ha mate know what av just realised that place is about 2 mins from my gf house

[smearsvtr]

i have magnex exhaust without middle box and has decat its sounds nice and not really that loud but as itsafastworld said it does sometimes get annoying especially sitting at 80mph on motorway

[Sparco_Tom]

either way my ashley exhaust as it is at the moment is louder inside the car than on the outside, i love it burrbling underneath me. i think it would fail the noise test though :)

[leeroybrown]

mine used to pop like a bitch sounded class!!!!

I think i want another saxo lol

[Karl]

[Sparco_Tom]

[craigy_87]

[Karl]

1800 RPM especially if you slow down through the gears.

[Sparco_Tom]

I got 4-1 / sports cat / straight through centre / Group N style back box and I only get a pop every nown and again, would like more but I like mine the way it is at present.


What are you actually looking for exhaust wise?

I know quite a few good places to get exhaust but depending on what you want from a exhaust depends where I recommend.

[Karl]

its cos you've got that girly cat ;)
Probably best to have one though :P

[craigy_87]

ah just read on their website
"Please note that the best form of contact is by phone. We sometimes get so many emails that we just cannot answer them all. If you report a problem by email we will answer it but all general enquiries need to wait until all orders have been processed."

[Sparco_Tom]

aahhhhhhh, was that in small print?

[craigy_87]

lol no mate was right under their phone number an email address lol

[craigy_87]

on the phone right now lol its not something they have done before, am on hold

[Sparco_Tom]

thats strange :s

[craigy_87]

oofftt bollocks to that got told 120 quid plus 12 postage ......

that was motorsport world

[Sparco_Tom]

very very expensive concidering my full exhaust is £125 from a company on ebay.

[craigy_87]

yeah i just looked on ebay there an saw a few full ashley systems for the same price. so where is my next port of call then?

[Sparco_Tom]

ashley direct will try find a number for you

[craigy_87]

there's a number on their site i think, just when you email them it gets sent to POTN.com

[craigy_87]

just phoned POTN the guy started saying something about sometimes ashley centre sections dont fit up to the backbox's when there bought seperate from the system at first i thought bollocks but then i had a think av seen loads of ashley backboxs that have a different pipe coming from it (that joins to the centre section), for example mine hardly has any pipe coming out of the backbox at all while others av seen a pipe come out with a bend in it. sorry if thats confusing lol

[craigy_87]

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f68/craigy_87/091120061630.jpg

see this is mine jus a small piece of pipe coming from the box in the backbox

[craigy_87]

POTN just phoned back 70 pound delivered from ashley
he was saying something about fitting it onto the backbox but i couldnt really understand him lol
i wouldnt be fittin it myself anyway
can anyone who has fitted one let me know how the centre section fits onto the backbox?

[Sparco_Tom]

its a sleave then clamp the two sections together. The backbox fits over the top of the center section, get a big hammer out get a nice tight fit job done

[craigy_87]

thanks for that mate :y:

[craigy_87]

well phoned them up again an they didnt have a clue what i was on about
they couldnt find who i was speakin to last time so there off to phone ashley again an i bet it comes back dearer than 70 quid this time

[craigy_87]

yup as i thought 104 quid now

[craigy_87]

so does anyone know anywhere i'd be able to get this centre section for cheaper than 104 quid

majorly pissed off at POTN

[Sparco_Tom]

PM you mate, if you have access to ebay take a look on there
