Motty's Micra-Japfest '13 here we come!

[mottymicra]

Collected my sportex/peter Lloyd system today. Need to get the centre pipe customed to fit onto the 4-2-1

 

[mottymicra]

Today got the Peter Lloyd custom fitted with a flange to fit the 4-2-1


Cut a flange off a middle section which could then be added to the centre pipe

Then bolted that to the 4-2-1 to get the right angle

Then slid the middle pipe onto the flange and clamped it on

Need to get some longer exhaust bushes to bring it off the bumper

It's knocking the heat Sheild, blowing slightly and the length of the flange is resinating and sounds a bit naff so going to cut and weld it up properly and bore the flange to the right fit. This was more of a lets see if it works test fit haha!

Sounds good in third and 4th, not too sure if it's affected the performance though,

If youve already had the cats out before it might not be so noticeable in performance until the limiting points. Mine now pulls over 100 again though and hasnt had that much power in ages!

 

[mottymicra]

That's a fair shout, this afternoon on the motorway before the install she did pull 100 fairly easily, won't know for sure untill I try her tomorrow I guess

 

[JoeK11]

Yours should be faster than mine technically, the coilpack engine makes a whole extra 1kw over the dizzy type apparently (wikipedia figures)

 

[mottymicra]

Hmmm maybe just so, had 108 out of him in 4th, 5th slows it down :')

 

[JoeK11]

Not had a good 4th gear rag in ages... doubt mine runs over 100 though. 100 in 5th is pretty high revs even! wonder if your box has the same ratios?

[mottymicra]

Went on a jolly to forge motorsport today, bumped into x games gold medalist Liam Doran and a few of his toys! Maybe one day I could get close to owning some

Ordered new brake discs and pads today for the nx'ers!
