kevlo Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I thought the whole point of going through your guy was that he was templating them to fit UK cars? I am certainly interested at £400 but don't know if i could be bothered with lots of fitment issues. so is it £400 fitted to a uk car or £400 plus fitting to uk car?

Zugara Posted September 29, 2010 Author Share Posted September 29, 2010 £400, this includes fitting, once my car has been templated, there will be no fitting issues. Itll be a straight swap. So it will fit uk and jdm models Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnH Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 I love the look of these, shame the y-pipe is more of an "x-pipe" as I'd love to have a y-pipe back version but wouldn't want to lose the dual exhaust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are true dual pipes, no Y pipe fella, straight through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnH Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 I was trying to say it's a shame I can't attach the ends to a Motordyne xyz pipe... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zugara Posted October 31, 2010 Author Share Posted October 31, 2010 I was trying to say it's a shame I can't attach the ends to a Motordyne xyz pipe... Ahhhh, I see, I am sure that some exhaust pro shop would be able to fabricate something to make it fit to the XYZ pipe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnH Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 I guess if you removed the racing cat to make the xyz pipe shorter and fabricated a mini-y-pipe you could... not sure what it'd be like for performance though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told yesterday that what ever exhaust you fit, the ECU will auto tune for the correct ratio of air flow/fuel/timing, so it actually dosent matter what you fit cos you wont notice any performance gain/loss.

Zugara Posted October 31, 2010 Author Share Posted October 31, 2010 Is that still true after an UpRev? No, its the uprev that frees the horses. But is it worth £400 to gain 12bhp ish? and some extra torque? I would like to know if those who had the revup done still think its been worthwhile?

I had UpRev done by Abbey and think it was worth it, just for having 100% throttle in each gear alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zugara Posted December 28, 2010 Author Share Posted December 28, 2010 But........will you, or do you ever use 100% of throttle in all gears? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletMagnet Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 But........will you, or do you ever use 100% of throttle in all gears? The thing is that from factory the throttle is restricted in the first three gears. So in first you get 60%, so even if you do only use 60% of throttle in first you are actually using less. Plus the UpRev has the ability to be tuned to specific mods that have been carried out. At Abbey, Mark has a huge range of maps saved for different amounts or combinations of mods, thus allowing you to get the gains in performance.

Zugara Posted December 29, 2010 Author Share Posted December 29, 2010 Dont get me wrong, i am not negative to an uprev at all. I think its a great idea to unleash the beast within, my main question was, once the uprev had been done, and after the initial wow factor, say some months down the line, do you still have that wow factor, or are you now accoustomed to it?

NIcad7 Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Are these being produced yet? Are there any issues with the quality of the metal? Research on these HKS clones has shown that they are not proper stainless and will rot pretty quickly... If these issues have been resolved id be interested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnH Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Actually, I'd quite like to know if the custom exhaust maker could make a Y back version, I love the style of these but don't want to go true dual and already have aftermarket de-cats and XYZ pipe.
