andlid Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Sitting here waiting for my new custom built exhaust to be fitted from the cats (BERKS) back to the two ZEES end pipes! Had a proper look under the car this time, the org exhaust from the CATs back to the end-pipes where/are in rag order the resonator box in the end had holes in it from rust and metal threads sticking through it! Not very good for a high flowing exhaust system. So getting 2.5" from each cat back to a new 'muffler' and then out to the ZEES pipes! Have taken some pre photos here: http://picasaweb.google.com/ALNPHOTOS/E ... 0564644402 And a video here: http://picasaweb.google.com/ALNPHOTOS/E ... 8503811570 pre sound 3rd gear http://picasaweb.google.com/ALNPHOTOS/E ... 6674802674 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andlid Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 It sounds quieter than before.lol. Sounds nice though dude,better in real life too? i think its due to the fact the google phone's mic isnt picking up the sound! lol I'll use the pvr setup at some stage, its mental loud when you floor it! and whe nyouo dont (idle or under low pressure) its very quite... just the way I like it...

andlid Posted November 9, 2009 Author Share Posted November 9, 2009 Quick update: Almost deaf at this stage TO LOUD @ around 1.800rpm to 2.400 rpm then like a rocket after that! Getting two new end boxes fitted (magnaflow) this afteroon hope it willl make it a bit quiter with a deeper growl Think this happened (my theory): The system started getting louder and louder, after I had my retune done which took place on a dyno for about 4-5 hours of revving , think that blew out the baffle material in the two ZEES end cans resulting it more or less acting like an empty box. Had a look when I was down checking the exhausts for leaks and could see the mesh material hanging down in one of the pipes. Think it was to much flow from the exhaust system when I got it done so the end cans died Will get some before and after video shots and let you know how I get on A.
