Default side exit exhaust fitted

i recently decided to change my front pipe from 3" to 3.5", so i though i may as well exit it out of the side











big thanks to Tony Mannock, for the use of his ramp, and mark for having the patience to put it all together.

Just bare in mind, I'm almost sure it's illegal to exit your exhaust to the nearside. ( ie pavement )

it was one of the reasons the Dodge Viper when it came to the UK had to have rear exhausts instead of the dual side exits ( both sides )

Know of plenty Landy's with side exits on the nearside, that exit quite high, and never have any trouble.

i may be wrong it seems,

may just be applicable to manufacturer standard cars but i dont know.

i know 100% fact that a car SVA`d WILL fail the test, hence my thaught of being illegal

i did a lot of research in 2002/3 on this, legislation may have changed but i nearly lost my saff when VOSA tried to take it off me, you dont want that bud!
I had been on a blast out from newcastle to blackpool at the time, shat myself and this was my side exit
