Loooonng time since I've done anything to the 90. Since the last update I've been learning to TIG weld.

I have therefore decided the the only logical next step is a full, custom, stainless exhaust system Laughing

So I've bought myself some mandrel bends and V-band clamps. The next few evenings are going to be dedicated to making a system.

Here's the original downpipe vs the 76mm stuff I've bought, quite a difference Shocked

Excellent. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

Good to see proper modding instead of bolt on bits that most, myself included, commonly do.

It's on!

76mm from turbo to tail pipe, all mandrel bends an no silencers Twisted Evil

It's amazing how much its opened up the bottom end. There is absolutely zero turbo lag making the throttle much sharper.

The problem is its a touch loud under full load Whistle next step is a valved silencer so I can have silent and loud as it's too loud to live with day to day Embarassed

I really enjoyed making it, very satisfying learning how to TIG weld. Hopefully it lasts another 17 years like the original one did Thumbs Up
