he he you know it ben pistons will be here fingers crossed end of next week woohoo

Mon Jan 23, 2012 5:42 pm

thanks Ross for the info and the pictures much appreciated - the exhaust really has to dive down, i will get the hammer ready !!!

Mon Jan 23, 2012 5:43 pm

also depends which manifold youve got coz im telling ya now 3 inch wont go down there with just a hammer youll need to beat the shit out of the bulk head to make it go down and i doubt you really wanna do that

Mon Jan 23, 2012 5:50 pm

am using steam pipe so the runner won't be an issue as i can curve it straight of the head - it just looks so tight between the uj and bulkhead

am going to copy danthe and use two steering column uj's cut and welded to make the thinnest link possible to join up the z3 rack - hopefully !

Mon Jan 23, 2012 5:53 pm

that's what I've used 2 ali ujs and a bar

Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:04 pm

good work

what did you use to silence the 3'' exhaust? how loud is it aswell cus I've read the turbo is good to keep the noise down

Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:08 pm

I ain't it's straight tho mate

its got a nice burble but it's not my daily driver you can here it coming tho but yeah

Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:13 pm
