Hi. Was talking to act daft today who popped over to my house in his 350 and my god does it sound amazing!!!! And look extremely well!!!


Anyway we were talking about my taimar exhaust and he suggested to ask ziga about his.



So Mr ziga my question to you is... I've removed my small kidney boxes and my middle box is straight thru but does equalize with sides of the engine...

Would it make a different if i didn't balance the engine sides? Or would something like cherry bombs make it sound more beefy ?


As it is it does sound good, not like actdafts but its a v6 not a v8.



Thanks in advance

Mick

Hi Mate

My centre boxes were shot when i bought the car so i did replace with cherry bomb mid silencers but recently i removed the rear silencers which were in effect similar to cherry bombs and now pushing 119db..My pipes are also equal running down from the engine and then straight along from the downpipe towards the rear of the car..
Heres a little vid of it..Cheers...Ziga

Cheers ziga.


Without sounding stupid, i guess yours is the cologne?? Or Essex like mine?


I have standard Tvr exhaust manifolds, the o/s one looks well flowed the the n/s wraps around the starter and isn't as balanced - looking that is.


Tbh mine might be decent enough, I'll have to get a video later and post it, see what you think.


Near me there's top gear performance. (few opinions but anyway) recently they had a picture of either a 3000m or taimar (both the same anyway) with cherry bombs fitted... Hmmmmmmm


Oh as a spare note at work we've had the council over about a noisy car in the morning... The woman complaining is well known to the police, she takes pics of dog poo too and complains... Lol

There are some weird people about..Yeah mine is a cologne..My neighbour's dont mind mine being loud but if you have miserable neighbour's then you might be better off keeping it down a tad..Cherry bombs are pretty much straight through with a ceramic baffle/coating..I do like the sound they make but its not everyones cuppa..post a vid up... Would be good to hear...Cheers..Ziga

Sounds alright mate..You could just change the rear section for something a little larger..Not too much..2-3" upswept/slash cut and that would beef it up a little..Or separate pipes running into single cherry bombs and then running parallel as they do now..There is a company called pipecraft in essex, Basildon i think..They can make any system you want and they are not too spicy, They specialise in V8 but do cover others and dont take forever...Ziga
