Scorpion exhaust centre section

[wildeian]

Looks (sounds!!) like the baffles have gone in my 325i sports' scorpion. I don't seem to be able to find anywhere that sells just the centre on its own.

Anyone know somewhere, ANYWHERE!!

OR - plan 'B': will one of the 'zone shops' sebring centre sections work with a standard downpipe, and scorpion rear box?

Or has anyone got an exhaust for sale!!??

so is the box sounding really really hollow now?!

i have a scorpion system in my garage complete, slight problem though the exhaust place couldn't separate the back box from the centre! DTM pipes

The Sebring pipe bore size is bigger than the Scorpion.

I know a guy at Scorpion, I will see what I can do. Just PM me to remimd me to do it.

Had a similar problem with mine Simon, ended up prising the 'split' in the backbox pipes apart, WD40 down it, got a mate to hold the centre up in the air while a block of wood and a hammer helped seperate the backbox

[Simon13]

they heat it up at the zorst place and it that but it still wouldn't budge

yes it's a 3 piece system and not very old, surpisingly quiet when it was fitted to the alpina

I heated mine till it changed colour and it didnt make the blindest bit of differance. Too much heat sink I reckon.

Cheers M5Pilot - You have PM


It's not sounding hollow, its resonating badly at low revs. Goes away when the revs pick up, but it sounds 1.1 fiesta!!

No probs splitting it tho... had to do it recently when I changed the engine & box. This was cos I couldn't get the straps off the back-box to lower it though!!

You selling Simon13??
