deanosabby Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Hi forum, I need to get new down pipes as mine have started to blow. Does anyone have a full system that they want to sell? I am thinking of getting rid of the 3" s/s exhaust which is fitted from the down pipes back and would like to go down to 2" instead. Just my luck to have sold a bosal rear box as well not to worry though. Does anyone rate this system http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Manta-2-0-Coupe-Sportex-Exhaust-inc-Downpipes-Single-3_W0QQitemZ270453186599QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item3ef8442027&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 and will it fit my 1.9 cav coupe? Ta, Deano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick-Manta Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Can't help with the exhaust (except for a middle pipe) but wouldn't it be an easier option to get your existing exhaust tig welded? As it's stainless steel corrosion should be minimal and usually it's just metal fatigue that they start blowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanosabby Posted September 10, 2009 Author Share Posted September 10, 2009 Hi Rick, Unfortunately the down pipes are the only bit that are still mild steel it is the rest that is stainless steel. I will try and convince swmbo that the one on ebay is the best option . Ta, Deano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keith1200 Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Personally! If I owned the standard system and was needing (front pipe etc) I would probably buy that system (above link). It's basically a standard Manta exhaust system, with a cherry bomer/rassper fitted to the rear box. If I was in your shoes 'exhaust wise' Dean? I'd try to source a front pipe for the rest of your stainless steel kit You could probably get an Ashley system for similar money! BUT! the BHP is probably an increase of about 1! hardly worth the effort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanosabby Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 Sorted now. I am getting it up to Bill Dalgety's place for a week on Monday as he has a few spare up there. Ta, Deano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
