Delivery turned up today :thumbs: had problems getting Supersprint as the UK supplier has gone bust and the price has shot up due to the £ being so poor. Found a supplier in the UK, unbelievable turn around from order :supz:

It may or may not work, but I'll give a go a let you all know ;)

They look to taper quite abit where they've been formed, or is the flash on the camera making them appear worse than it actually is?

Will be interesting to see the difference, are you putting the car on the dyno for a before and after figure?

Sounds sweet mate, I look forward to hearing it on your car. What are the other parts of your exhaust? I'm guessing Supersprint X-Pipe and Backbox...

How will you get on come MOT time? Or is this going on a track car?

I will be doing but I'm going to put them on first just to see how it runs.

they aren't too bad, will be fitting them on Monday and not expecting any problems, but you never know when modding.

All Standard, I've had the 100 cell cats, x pipe and lightweight back box time to try another set up.

Pipes are now fitted, no emission light so far and the car is running fine, again so far so good. The car sounds standard until you give it some acceleration, there's no boomy noise just a rasp and I mean a rasp. The mpg has gone down a bit and if you stand behind the car when its running you can smell the gasses, they will not be staying on permanently, only for track days and fun days ;) I need to do a few more miles in it before I can fully confirm there are no issues and yes it appears there is more power or should I say it appears to pulls better.

since fitting the race cats to mine the rasp got very intense also, miltek going on in the next few days.

Why does it look press bent rather than mandrel bent? Or is it just the camera angle??

Looking good. If the light comes on does the car go into limp mode?

My light came on once and i SH*T myself lol, i stopped straight away and the hand book came out...

The car didn't go into limp mode or anything. i left the car over night drove it the next day and after about the 10 miles the light went off and hasn't been on since....

Not sure what it was but i think it had to do with the Milltek cats somehow.

Nope ;)

I do know someone who had straight pipes on all the way through on his CSL with no problems at all, apart from the noise levels :whistle:

Does this hoffman decat pipe differ to the supersprint? and what results would you get with the supersprint centre section w/o resonator & OEM BB? Too Noisey?
