Gazza well another 4 hours and still no luck i dont know what they useed on mine but i cant even turn it a bit :evil: going to have to go to the garage tommrow see if they can do it notsure.gif how much would a new pipe be ?with out the precat in it ?
Mark_Dj Not sure mate notsure.gif , probably better getting a second hand one. It's going to have to come off anyway. Just ask a local exhaust garage to free it off, then nip straight home and pop it off again and then your on a roll :wink:
Gazza yea will have to do that hopefully tommrow i will have it sorted notsure.gif the other thing is i have messed up the tread on one of the 3 bolts that hold it to the manifold can you replace these or is a new manifold ?
Mark_Dj Probably need a new manifold notsure.gif , they should have come off pretty easy. Just try your best or once you have it fitted back up ask the garage to fit it :wink: . Good luck mate
Gazza it looks to me like just a piece of threaded bar in it.the nut goes on but will not tighten up notsure.gif the exhaust doesnt sound like its blowing notsure.gif
Mark_Dj Try a new nut, or try one of the others and see if it nips up :wink: . When I did my Pre Cat I was wrestling with my centre section trying to free it rofl.. . I was out of breath and aching :lol:
Gazza just took it the garage and they will do it for £30 20.gif so at around 2.pm i will have no pre cat 20.gif
Gazza all sorted its off 😃 im well happy with it it pops at around 4000 revs it's great. also seems to have got rid of the flat spot when you change gear and accselerate hard 😃
Mark_Dj Ah good man, did it take you long to remove? I had blisters for a few days after removing mine :lol: . Glad you like it, and it does get rid of the flat spots 😃
Mark_Dj :lol: , you cheat rofl.. . I thought that was just to loosen the pipe off for you. Ah well good job done 😛
LeeSRI Just finished doing mine and fitting side skirts on. It has taken me 3 hours to get the bloody thing off and 10min to put iyt all back togther, with a lot of scraches and aches 🙁 but the car is so much beter just need the center pipe now 😃
