What bits.....

[Graham]

do i need to fit the milltek cat back system, i have bought the exhaust system and notices that the joint over the back drive shaft is cup to cup, not cup to cone , on ETKA is says there is a 60/60 washer to fit this joint, is this an olive shaped spacer, and does the OEM one fit the milltek system.
I am also going to undo the cats and remove the two broken studs which support them on the bottom of the gearbox. I have a suspision that my down pipe is bent as the mounting faces are a good inch or two away from the bracket between the cats. Has anyone else had this and got it to go back in place or does this sound like a new down pipe is needed . I also want new mounts as the exhaust has been held up with industrial tie wraps for over a year (although i must say there is no wear on them ).
Cheers

Graham, when my Milltek was fitted it was old fashioned clamps all the way down. WIthout you measuring the Milltek and saying what size the olives need to be, I'd stick my neck out and say no way the OE boys gonna fit, too small I'd say. The Milltek should of come with olives as they are bound to be bigger dia than stock one which are indeed 60/60's.

If you need a downpipe I know APNess has an old one (not sur eif he wants to get rid though) and I will have one soon.

I also might have a 3" SS downpipe for sale if anyone is interetsed. I bought it a while ago but if I get the exhaust I am considering then I won't need it.

PM me a price for your downpipe Leigh - I am interested.

Cheers guys, has anyone ever bent a down pipe? and can they be removed with the car on axle stands or is it a book it on the ramp job. For my standard S2 i wouldnt really need a 3" down pipe would i? I hope it will move back into position and save me a chew on.

You dont need a larger downpipe until you are getting near/over 400bhp
