On your Escort Cos, mine is a Mongoose and sounds crap, far too quiet, not enough burble and generally sounds quieter than an electric wheelchair.

So, without wanting to pay out £000's to get a new one, can i just take a box out and make it growl a bit more ? Will i damage the oil seals in the turbo due to backpressure issues if i do take out a box ?

Thanks

adamski frst

well mines a mongoose and sounds great

Mines a Blue Flame, fits and sounds awsome!

SAM_COSWORTH

mongoose, look sgood and sounds good, IIRC blue flame are actually mongoose anyway - just trading as a different name...

Suppose i am coming from an Evo 6 with a Blitz nur spec, but even so, i have heard Cossies sound really burbly and mine just doesnt !!

So, what about the idea of taking a box out ? Do you have all boxes in your exhaust or have you fiddled ?

look sliek they have mode some improvements and taken notes fro the japs, with using bolt up flanges rather than the old slip joints that move and leak

dont forget throughthe nur-spec is a cery loud pipe, with the bung out it rattles windows even at tickover

Got a GGR with CAT. I think it sounds quite nice. Not to loud.

Richie Russ

But even my old Rs Turban was louder than my Cos, surely thats not right, i think i'll whip the centre box out and see what occurs !!!

Got a Mongoose with de-cat on mine, sounds plenty loud IMO! Noisy enough to sound purposeful but not over the top to sound kevy

ive just had a sytem made by a firm in doncaster called custom pipes and they make them exactly how you want bore size, tail pipe size, number of silencers.
excellent service and excellent workmanship highly recomended.

ryan look up a firm called custompipes there situated in N.I. a lad called nigel i met him at national day he put me on to his brother in doncaster with the same firm quality axhausts mate,see my post above.

Does anyone have a problem when it comes to having an mot on emissions?

JohnP001

No as I've got a Cat in my GGR.

Dave Henshall

and if your car has had an older engine (ie secondhand from a breakers ) when yours went pop the emmisions goes on the oldest bit, so if you have a 1994 car with a 1991 saph engine,, the emmisions it has to pass is the 1991 NON CAT test

ryan_belfast

I have a full decat system, and mine passed the emmissions test, i just pulled out my chip and let my car drive for about 20miles without the chip to get the standard fueling back etc....

Thanks juss 1 - Currently looking for their number now, cheers buuuuuuudy.

Mines a graham goode system, but the sports cat has since been removed, the centre silencer has been replaced with a shorter more free flowing silencer and the down pipe has been cut, angled and extended further into the engine bay as turbo is on a different manifold.

so i guess mines a kinda mongrel/hybrid
