Scottish Type-R's NHB 06 Premier Edition EP3

Yeah stu. It has two minor dents in it when Honda were looking to put it on last year. They will get removed by exhaust specialist. It's on the b-pipe silencer. The one on the car has no dents. :D

Might as well sell it
 
Update

Poweflex hangers installed and J'S racing triangle hanger installed.

Front of B-pipe now wrapped









Work carried out at Elite Custom Exhausts. Can't recommend them highly enough. :D Now to test in rain and standing water.
 
The wrapping has certainly helped.

The kettling is minimal now. The new hangers are working. I will need one them cut back a bit as it is rather close to the twinloop pipe.

But a big difference.
 
Update.

So I am getting the whole b-pipe wrapped back to the silencer. The front wrapping made a huge difference but with the rain we get in Scotland will get it completely wrapped.

Stu your inbox is full so I will post the hangers for you. I have found the powerflex hangers good but a bit harsh lol. Anyway mate here is the links to the 3 I bought for my EP3 from TDi North.

Triangle exhaust hanger I used:

Yeah as as it was kettling on the un wrapped part the noise had shifted lol.

But true will see what happens. Protects it too I guess.

What makes you say that? I'd guess at K20 for the engine, but STR?? I probably won't sell it unless I get something better anyways, K20STR = Kosta (rrrr)

Have you wrapped it yet? How much wrap did you use on the first part you've done?

Yeah :D So he has wrapped from the part that was already done. to the silencer. Made such a difference. Had heavy rain up here over the weekend and not a kettling issue at all. Worth it. Also changed to the J'S racing mounts helped too.

Cool I remember you said you were saving up for a new house. DIY an evil necessity.

Nice! Any idea how much wrap was used?
 
I'm not experiencing anything like what I've read it sounds like, but it might be worthwhile doing anyway. :)
