Title: 2.5v Exhaust question....
Post by: PaulyQ on 29 January 2008, 11:54:43
Can I fit a 3.0/MV6 back box to my motor? (I like the twin pipes :y)

Reason I ask is that my back box is shedding Fibre Glass so needs replacing. Found some cheapies on fleabay which will do the job.

Yep.....the only difference is the number of pipes sticking out....and the bumpers are designed to take either.

I am hopefully going to fit an Irmsher back box to my 2.5. That also has twin tail pipes ;)

will look nice that Dazzler... I saw another nice back box on fleabay earlier today but will take a bit of welding work to put on.

Would go for an Irmsher back box but maybe a bit costly, unless you know somebody with one for going for around £30 ??

hey dazzler. where you see that £150 irmscher then?
s/h they tend to fetch about a ton, but i'm up for paying the extra if it's new!

i was quoted about 150 for a powerflow back box, thats also stainless and in any shape required!

ah. thanks for the pointer! I've telephoned these guys before and they said they only had 2 litre exhausts in stock. the v6 stuff comes in and out (!!!) and i should ring weekly!

good luck if you got one!
