  1. Thanks Ian. Looking at the various versions I can see that you are correct they do look shorter. I'm stuck with them now so I'll try to fix the supports to the chassis instead of the boot floor and add a centre box !!! Could be a longer job than I thought David.
  2. Ian Thanks for the reply. The exhaust boxes are on short rubber straps but i think they are transmitting noise to the boot floor I may try to make a frame that connects to the Chassis Extensions. I like the look of your centre exhaust section, very neat. David
  3. Thanks Ian. The two silencer boxes are secondhand so not sure of the original make. They are a few years old and have the large diameter extensions.the rest of the system is straight through tubing. I'm wondering if the booming sound is because they are attached the the spare wheel well? it could be acting like a drum and amplifying the noises. With the Vitesse there is very little clearance in the chassis for a additional silencer. Unless I could find one which is 3" Diameter in which case would it do much. Thanks again for your reply. David
  4. I'm struggling to find an exhaust system that is not too loud? the baffles in the system I had for over 20 years fell apart. I replaced it with a straight through silencer and that was very loud I have just fitted a twin box system that is not quite as loud but very boomy especially at about 300 rpm. The engine has a high lift cam an 1.75 SU's. Has any one any suggestions to an exhaust that will be relatively quite but not sap power. The twin box system I have fitted does not have the resonator would fitting one help? Thanks David
