exhaust

Just thought I would show off my new exhaust as I am very pleased with the look it's been made by a company called GDS Engineering in Brackley in Northants and at a very good price I am not connected just happy hope the pics come out. If not have a look in my archive can anybody tell me how to get pics onto the post

What does this actually mean??? Is this a positive or negative comment?

I think the exhaust and the car look very good indeed...

Looks fantastic! Love the colour scheme.

How have you dealt with the detailing on the top of your rocker covers? Are they painted or is that the bare alloy? Not quite sure how to do mine yet - toying with the idea of painting the detailing silver (rockers are blue) but never was much of an artist

BTW Halfords do an oil filler cap in yellow (which would look nice on your car)

Thanks for all your comments nothing was taken the wrong way.The rocker boxes are painted and then the raised parts are scraped back to bare ali with a stanley blade which gives a sharp edge. Just for info purpose the headers are about 19" long which is suposed to be the best length for the most torque thats why they don't go all the way to the bottom of the chassis this is only what I have been told so I stand to be corrected untill I have it dynoed.

The exhaust is very pretty indeed. The only down side is performance will suffer due to all the bends.

No but they are now doing gsxr 1000 with a garret t4 on it and it looks realy good .The bends will not damage the performance at all it's the length of the headers which alter the position of the torque in the revs too long and the power goes to the top end of the revs ok for the track but not on the road
