Wanted New Cherry Bomb Exhaust
Discussion
Anyone have any ideas where I can buy a " Cherry Bomb" exhaust from for a Chimaera that does'nt cost the earth ? there must be manufacturers out there making them rather than being restricted to the couple of suppliers ( who don't actually make the exhaust ) I have already been advised to look at.
Any thoughts or pointers would be much appreciated,
Cheers

its really easy to DIY. get some cherry bombs off e-bay and borrow a mig welder or someone who can.
These should fit. 2"ID 18"long.
Ive done DIY on my last Chimaera with these and sounded great. All depends on how much you want to pay

Nice, You'd never get away with them on a track day would you? You've got tail silencers hav'nt you!
They were not to loud ,just raspy ! I sold it because this exhasut and the ACT Y piece was just to much ,prefer the standard Y piece and This conversion ,it`s just an ACT sports exhaust copy ..You can stick these in to get you on the track..
I have the ACT setup on mine. Very please and well worth the money IMO.
This what they sound like:

It is pretty much the full ACT system... ACT Cherry bombs, ACT replica manifolds with non reversal cones and Clive Ford's Y piece.... loud enough when you boot it but not too bad idle and like you say that nice rasp.Is that the ACT sports exhaust ,pre cats out and standard Y piece ?

Matthew, is this the same system you had fitted in your 2011 Growl rolling road video? Sounds fantastic and I think I'll be going down this route again.swanny71 said:

Just get some little silences made up and loose the box (perforated pipe,wadding and rolled stainless)..Nice and raspy better than the old tractor .
Keep away from the cherry bombs they will loose you power.
Someone is pulling your leg Daz, if you loose 200 BHP per pipe, why thats 320kw of heat generated (in addition to the heat in the exhaust already) - I bet thats bigger than any gas house boiler you have ever fitted! (Thats not an RPI advert is it?)Keep away from the cherry bombs they will loose you power.

Thanks for the input everyone - just a question based on the above does no one else make/supply a "cherry bomb" exhaust for Tvr's apart from the ACT mentioned in the posts ?

Cut it open then you are commited eather loose the silencer box or fit them inside.

Ok it might not be loosing that type of power ,these have been dynod with and without these type silences ,they do loose power..!
I went from a standard system to an ACT cherry bomb system on the pre cat Griff and they both made exactly the same power. Same RR just 1 year apart.Edited by SILICONEKID350HP on Tuesday 5th February 22:33
