Are we talking hammer modifications or something more in-depth?

One of the pipes was slightly too long .

I bought my system from a chap who used to be on here, Fegus I think . It fitted perfectly on his car but it wasn't loud enough for him allegedly

His loss was my gain , around the £60 mark on Baywatch as I recall , still had the paint on it :thumbs:

After me saying I would be silenced it seems my comments have been a catalyst for others to sound off on this subject

I thought folk were getting RC and this would bomb but there has been a resonance from the mild people on here

I am now back under pressure to give a blow by blow fitting guide

I will be box -ing clever and not just pasting while assembling this

When giving advice I don't want to get it wrong and end up on the skids.

First bit if advice to anyone branching out Kwik ly into exhaust fitting is to wear some really clean overalls , stainless ideally and reel cotton ! :thumbs:
