jumping350 Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 As the government have messed me up with all there job cuts and everything else cuts while putting everything else up... money was stretched. Pesky rusting of mid pipe flange hit the Z (thought it would never happen to me lol) as everyone does wanted bit more punch out of exhaust if replacing it but cant justify paying £100+ for just mid pipe here it is total cost to me £25 (if you can blag an old mid pipe and can weld) definately more noise and bit more punchier on low revs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Husky Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 yeah, people don't realise how many go's it takes to get it right sometimes I call these... "long term projects" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 so is that an old mid pipe with a straight bit welded in? good job really looks a tidy piece of work what did you clean the old pipe up with to get it back to steel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumping350 Posted May 17, 2011 Author Share Posted May 17, 2011 yep just regular mid pipe with box cut out and pipe put in place, i wired brushed the hell out of it to get rust off but i think your referring to how silver it is, thats heat/rust resistant stuff (no more flange rusting for me....hopefully) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
