lol

Not the best idea to have it loud on a track car. Be nothing worse then getting black flagged for noise levels.

normal systems are usually fine.

just dont go ott, or you will get a black flag and noise test.

my side exit beast passed 100.9db(A) @ 4krpm static (1m, 45deg angle!). limit was 105db(A) at cadwell where it was done. :shock: apparently 99db(A) @ 7krpm from the opposite side of the car behind the armco barrier! LOL

it now has another silencer box in it, and should be fine for everything. just not worth having it too loud, but i was limited for space, so the design was just one silencer....bad idea.

now with 2 silencers its like a normal sports system...ish! :twisted:

Wait till the baffles collapse, and they will believe me. I used to work for Top Gear in Burnley and build powerflow exhausts all day long.

Ask ashley exhusts about a one off John up there is great he's done a few one off for me, mild steel, as for rusting, OEM stuff seems to last ok, and the wall thickness is better than crappy paper thing stainless

hmmm i had 1 on the valver for over 2 years...guy who bought it off me was local..he had it for a further 3 years..neither me nor him had probs wi that....till he sold it on again n it got wrote off.


like i said the willy 1 has been on for 5 years +.....never had any trouble wi that either.....quite a few of the lads from round here have had their zorsts fitted there...again no problems....and quite a few have had them fitted there off the forum....again...no probs.think monkey had 1 or 2 probs when they did his tho...but nowt to do with the silencers.



iv heard some bad things about powerflow........but never from the burnley outlet....but then most complaints have been about shoddy welding.


how long ago u work there?? musta bin a good while back if it was b4 the welsh wizard of corsas ;) lol

laurence replaced gary,i was there in 2001,i left when he told me he'd put me the company insurance but didn't,i got banned because of it,the problems are with the baffles inside the boxes not being tacked properly and workin loose,we used to open the ends and get the pipe in as far as we could to combat it,they are on top of it now...
