Sidewinder Exhaust - First Pics!

[MJA]

Here are the first ever pics of Sacha's new sidewinder exhaust











I'd imagine it will sit very similar to the Blitz NUR spec

It's being fitted next weekend, so i'l get some more pics up once it's on the car

It certainly looks the business . Is it a 2.5in system.

 

[MJA]

[Dane_Bristol]

i had a look at yours when you were parked in portsmouth uni car park last saturday night

main difference is the back box i think, yours is a bit more oval-shaped

all fitted now! it sounds amazing

I didn't have any trouble with boost creep/spike etc on the way home. floored it in all gers and the boost held perfectly

It's worth pointing out that running an Autobahn FMIC will leave you with massive clearence problems due to the lamda sensor

my car is off the road again now, becasue of the clearence problems.

the intercooler turbo pipe is pushing very hard against the lamda sensor. We managed to bend the pipe a little in order to fit it back on the car, but as a result of this the radiator fan, gearbox, battery earth and radiator brackets are all cutting into the intercooler pipes at 4 different points!

the only problem with the exhaust is that it hits the chassis when going over bumpy bits of road (at the back, where the pipework crosses over the rear axle) so i need to find way to stop it

Some heat wrap would probably stop it making a noise when hitting the axle? would still be hitting though...

 

[dac69er]

who fitted it? usually with a bit of messing abot you can get it to a point where it doesnt hit!?

 

[MJA]

the standard hangers are too short, i need to find some longer ones
