My new zaust from Tubular

[jamieall]

This afternoon Jim came down to Edinburgh to give me a hand with something we have been chatting about for sometime now. The concept was to produce a track friendly, single exit exhaust designed similar to an Arqray but to take the extra flow of the up coming SC.
Here are some pics of the standard and the Tubular zausts.






And big thank you for Mark who kindly allowed us to use his garage and tools. I owe you a beer when you are next in Dublin J


The old zaust was taken out as was the rear panel and heat shielding.

The Heat shielding had to be trimmed

The size of the box is quite large but seems to work well

Had to do a bit of a short-term fix for the diffuser struts and number plate holder

Really pleased with the finished look and that fact the 4x4 number plate fits!

Jim tells me the box will get louder with the extra gas flow from the SC but as is I am guessing its similar to the stage 1. Both Mark and myself were impressed with the quality of the noise too. It is defiantly quieter than the Larini on Marks car. Jim recons it’s about 98db but that could rise with the Sc to closer to 101db.

That looks very nice indeed. is it louder than your stage 2 was?
I had a stage 2 on my last exige and must say it was a little deafening however i would like to allow the gases to flow a little freer on my new exige.
How much was it if you dont mind me asking?

Very... very... very nice.... I think my 240 might get similar treatment at somepoint in the future now I've seen it...

This is WAY quieter than the stage 2 closer to the stage 1

Jim has a number of free flowing systems for non sc applications too.
Best mail Jim for cost etc
Would recomend him highly the zaust does exactly what I asked for

That is a very well built exhaust. What have you done with the hole in the venturi?

[bjc388]

Very nice ... just look at the finish compared to the original ... makes the original look like some old bucket!

[jamieall]

Just come back from Knockhill the zaust is colouring up nicely. The actual box runs very cool so will remain silvery while the tip is going gold and blue

It is a beauty! I have a slightly more agressive diffuser being made up at the moment which will not have a hole.

Jamie, did sound nice, I came over with my wee bro and had a look and chatted to you about the eliminator struts.

It certainly was quiter from the pit wall than the 111R with stage 2 that was out. It sounded similar, just not as loud if that makes sense.

[jamieall]

Nice to have met you!

Hopefully that should mean I will get into some track days

did have this moment


450 degree spin

[jke11y]

Oops. No damage I hope!

Think I am going to go up for the April evening (13th?)

Will be my first track outing in the exige (or any car actually!)
