Exhaust centre section

[bpackman]

Hi Guys, bought my first type r ep3 last weekend knowing that it needed a new back box...I have just bought a spoon n1 back box however have just found out that the centre section is damaged at where the two join so I am currently driving with no back box!
Please could you recommend the best centre section to use and where I can get one FAST...Loving the car though!:lol:

Thanks
Ben

Sportex do cheap and cheerful mild steel b-pipes. I got on from ebay, turned up a couple of days later.

Yea I have just been looking at one of those, do they come with any fittings?

 

[jimbothemagnificent]

No, you'll need gaskets, they cost less than £10.

Some people have found that the welds near the bolt holes have needed grinding before the bolts sit flush. Mine didn't, but either way it's a pretty good deal.

Word of warning: unsilenced b-pipe and N1 is LOUD.

Oh okay thanks, ill have a look for some!
Yea I think I might go for the sportex pipe with the silencer on because I don't want it to sound stupidly loud! What are you running?

I've got a sportex unsilenced with a M2 back box. It's ridiculous. I'll be changing it when I get some money together, the sportex has done bloody well for a £60 pipe though, just time for a change.
