scottsoulby Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 hi, ive been offered the above for 200 pounds, its had a little damage to the rear cans, which very bent slightly and bent back due to an accident, they are now staright but can apparently tell where they were bent, plus its only 25mins away from me, do you think its worth it? i can always get the cans replaced, i cant find any sound clips so ive no idea how it sounds?

martinmac Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Its a great exhaust and I think no longer made so if its sound that sounds good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M350ZB Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 If you dont, send him my way , is it dual ?, o and what exhaust you running at the moment ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsoulby Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 its on ebay at the moment, ive spoken to the guy and i can get it today, the only thing if i wait it could go for cheaper?? or do you think its worth 200? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsoulby Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 yeah, its a true dual with that goes all the way to the cats, so its worth getting then you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I would say so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M350ZB Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 depends bud, what do you have on at the moment ?, and for £200 you cant really go wrong i suppose, how bad is the damadge. Then again i have read that you lose power with the dual, someone im sure will be along to confirm this though. Might be worth getting in touch with 3FIDDYZ, he knows a thign or two about power to mod ratio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsoulby Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 i just have the standard exhaust at the moment, with it de-silencered, which im sure lost a fair bit of power so i was going to replace it anyway, the guy said he didnt notice any power lose so it cant be any worse than i have now, ive just bargained him down to 180 so im off to pick it up now pics to come...................

M350ZB Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Result mate £180 cant be a bad price, do you have a link for it ?.damage to the rear cans-how bad is it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shire350Z Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Iv got a dc sports true dual,dont mind meetin if your not far away and in my opinion they sound awesome and they have been discontinued like martin said, so quite rare now unless its the newer model which has a y section like standard and is quieter but def worth that money either way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3FIDDYZ Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Is it the guy in Hull? From the looks of the picture it may have been involved in a rear end accident.... If thats the case it may be more than just the box... Looks pretty bent... Still £180 and some welding it may be ok! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 i've got the invidia true dual which is similar, i haven't noticed any power loss. paid £200 for mine and spent another £160 having a new flexi-joint welded in as the old one had snapped. my main problem was finding somewhere to tig weld it. as not many garages actually do it.

scottsoulby Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 yeah it had been in a rear end crash, but only a small one, the Cans army particularly round but he has given me 2 new cans to get fitted, I'm currently at bush watching it get fitted, there not meant to do it but I offered beer and cash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottsoulby Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 just got back from having it fitted, sounds DEEP and loud, a really nice tone, so im happy, got back the power i lost from the old de-silenced exhaust i had so feel alot better and smoother to drive, it needs a bit of sorting, like the angle of the pipes and need to sort out the end pipes, which i will get done asap.... and of course a clean and a bumper tuck which ill do on friday so piccies... sound clips to come Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jotun Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I also have the DC sports, the only disadvantage is that it sounds so nice at high RPM that it becomes very difficult to no nail it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
