ive just come back from a drive in the 3dr, and noticed the exhaust is blowing now from underneath the car. So what choices have i got as a replacement? I would really like a standard system, but where can you get them from? what other makes are quiet, but look kinda like the ford one. If not, what are the other choices?

Also, im having my car Stg 1 chipped tomorrow, will this make a difference in mapping/setting it up?

Thanks a lot,
Mike.

mongoose,magnex, scorpoin, there are quite a few more too.

Why not get a stainless one,lasts a lot longer too.

Will be a lot better with a performance exhaust on.

I'd go for a mongoose if i were you, there the nuts

boXXer

where is the cheapest place to get them from?

they are roughly the same price,give or take £10.

lots of tuners etc...in the ford mags.

cool. anyone got any links so i can have a look at prices etc?

Oranoco

Ditch the standard system chap. Quick Fit etc will sell a mild steel system that is usually of poor quality and won't last. A performance exhaust made of stainless steel will only be a little noisier and will help the car in operation as well as lasting a hell of a lot longer

I've always been very pleased with Magnex systems although I use a Scorpion system on the RST with no complaints

POPEYE

i have a magnex,quite quiet until on boost
they are a dual system like the oe one

boXXer

nice. i just want something quiet thats all, could be a bit louder, as they do sound nice.....

Magnex gets my vote although their NOT available any more for the Cossie I'm led to believe and it all depends on where it's blowing from for 2morrow regarding performance levels

It will be better with the mods.

Karl will no doubt explain it all for you if you ask nice.

its blowing/leaking where the downpipe joins the system i think.

could be just the gasket, could be fixed.

I have just bought a magnex cat back for mine, well pleased with it. Not too loud!
Just as another option, i heard of people fitting miltek exhuasts, don't know how good they are though or what the quality is like?

boXXer

is there gaskets there then? its where the system splits into 2, by the drivers footwell.

dave cos4x4

iTrader: (5)

not 100% but i think there would be one.



Dave.

boXXer

cool.Thanks for your help mate.

sorry to piss on fire But only got gaskets on the manifold to head rest of the system is push fit with maybe a bit of paste to join them

dave cos4x4

iTrader: (5)

must be loose then,lol, may need to reassemble it and repaste it.

if not that...........its fooked ,get a new stainless one.



Dave.

If your car is going for a "gunship" conversion you wanna get shot of the std exhaust anyway as it'll be soooo restrictive

If you can get a Magnex that will be your best bet (but only 2nd hand nowadays as they stopped making exhaust for Sierra Cossies years ago)..... RSNissan from here is thinking about selling his full Magnex from his 3dr so maybe worth a PM

Scorpion and Mongoose are quite loud in comparison and Miltek don't list an exhaust for the Sierra

omp grp n works well,only a back box on them,doesnt look too brash(people thought it was standard looking with 2.5 inch pipe) it weighs about half the std item and worked fine on mine,loved it!

mattbibs

mongoose defo!

rapidcossie

whatever you do dont get a scorpian.....the bore decreases down to under 2 inch in the back box and will deffo lose power compared to goose and magnex.
magnex on my car and it excellent.

I had a magnex on mt saff, was a really good fit & was quite until on boost as pops said. But i changed it for a Mongoose as i wanted someything louder.

I still have the Magnex if your interested mate.

discodenkelly

I've got an extreme systemfrom Woodford, top exhaust and not very loud until you hit boost. Would deffo recommend em. A doddle to fit aswell cos they're flanged so you don't have to mess about lining the pipe up. Just bolt it together and away ya go

boost mad
