Post by m193twa »

just fitted a motorbike exhaust pipe to my car, it sounds niccee, very deep sound, i'd advise any one to put one on instead of a universal back box, it sounds great.. :lol:

Me and madmatt decided a Bike can was the way to go with my notchback, How have you fastened it to the car? i was looking at the strap hangers bolted to the car underbody.

Pics would be good too mate ;-)

Don't want to offend anyone here. But why would you wan't to fit a bike exhaust on a car ?

Are they those universal ones that barry boys fit as many as poss on the back of thier saxo's ? They look rediculous

4" my arse!

the tail pipes are 3" from top to bottom and slightly less side to side! so there aren't that huge! and i doubt very much that it will sound pants thank you very much! its not going to be as loud as most barry boys around my area because they all drive nova's and saxo's and they use a metal dustbin to create there "masterpieces!" :shock:

it'll hopefully just sound like a 1000cc superbike, but about an octave lower? (3500 - 6500 instead of 7000-13000rpm..)

which would be schweet...
