    Booked in for new exhaust

    Hello
    This Thursday getting my new exhaust made and fitted at long life Bristol.
    They did agree to get an m12 adapter fitted to down pipe including in the price but should I ask them to do separate waste gate pipe made up or is the 3inch system good nuf?.
    System is 3 inch all the way with two silencers and no cats.

            can you ask them to cost up a wastegate pipe? I already have a longlife exhaust but i am keen to run a separate w/gate pipe.

            Cheers

                  Hi
                  I had a word with Ian today and he recons it should be no problem with wg pipe, The only question is where should it go ? all the way to the back or down to floor like Toms,Dougs

                  Surely if it goes to the back will be more expensive and ''MOT'' guy will not be happy
                  thx

                    The MOT guy is going to be more concerned with you not having a CAT and not passing the CAT tests!

                    I say down and out the side like Mark had on his originally.

                    I would also get a flexible bit of pipe in the exhaust - main and wastgate - in case th eexhaust grounds - it won't put a shock through the turbo or EM.

                      Thats a good pont. MOT dude wont give two sh1ts about where the WG pipe comes out from, well he shouldnt. Flexi pipe is a very good idea too as it does put a lot of stress on the manifold/turbo, when the engine moves and if it grounds

                            Or even in the middle of the DP - so no shocks are thrown up from the bend at the bottom if that hits the ground?

                              My DP has no flexi in it at the moment and I 'seem' to have got away with it so far, but I have bought a 6" section of flexi to fit in the middle to top half of the DP, which I will weld in when I start using the new EM, it is a good idea.
