Did it still have the exhaust.....


MfFTO - that could be an option for you - it's a sweet exhaust (cat-back) so maybe you could get just the backbox...

There I was on my original thread about to repremand the thread jackers (although maybe I started it). And by the time I had it written and posted the offending posts were moved.

Does it have a twin exit - i.e. 1 exit either side of car?
Its very likely the wrong bore in any case - the GPX has a considerably larger bore exhaust.

I already have an RSR single exit centre section and backbox - So theres not much point in changing the backbox unless I get what I am looking for.

It's got 2xtwin exits - one set on each side of the car.... along the same lines as the SL55 (which is what I was looking for). Had it made by powerflow in mullingar. It's not loud though - I asked them to keep it quiet.

Thats what I'm looking for :lol: - have you any idea what bore the exhaust is?

The standard GR exhaust bore is 50mm - the GPX exhaust is 67mm - my RSR exhaust centre section probably has around a 67mm-75mm bore - not sure of the consequences of putting these together - may not help my power output unless the increased flow from the twin exit makes up for the loss of bore over the RSR . Maybe I should give Rory a shout.

No idea what bore the exhaust is - all I know is it's a cat-back system. Check with Rory to see if he still has it, maybe he can measure it up for you...

It would look class on your car though :)

Ok

I still have the car and it is going back on the road in the next couple of weeks. Much too busy all along to attempt repair.
As regardss exhaust I might be willing to sell MYFTO is the offer was right. We could also swap the rear bumpers, saving you time and hassle. I could then put the BLITZ on Dean's old GS
