vx220 exhaust U bend

[vocky]

got bored and decided to sort out my vx220 exhaust restrictions notsure.gif

I was never happy with the milltek U bend section, it looks smaller than the standard part :?

The pipework on my vx is 2.5" before and after the cat, so the less than 2" U bend is not ideal

A couple of 2.5" 90 degree bends soon got welded together and I just need to weld on the flange and it's finished

hopefully it will free up a few bhp too

Based on what I saw with my 2Bular, this should help a lot

lol no the entire Miltek back box is less than ideal, stick a 2bular on there I'll put money on you get an increase in power, speedster proved it's more restrictive than a piper let alone a 2.5" stright through

pics please!

why can I see vocky blowing that 600bhp vx220 turbo out the water soon ?

it's your fault I'm tweaking it

I'm even considering cutting open the milltek and modifying it internally

very nice

hows the tyre clearance ? 8cm for normal is too close for my liking

it's about 10mm nearer, better not stop for too long

Be very careful with that vocky, I crashed on track a year ago because of the big difference in tyre temperature it made

finished the U bend yesterday and fitted it today

exhaust note is now deeper and sounds much better

took it for a spin 8)

power and torque appear to be up showo..

well worth the effort cheers..
