    I didn't need the ratchet strap. I had to cut the bolts off the joint clips at the front. A quick spray of wd40 and it moved forward in the joints another 2 inch. Perfect fit now. It must have hung out a lot on it's previous car

    It was quite easy to fit but it's slightly too long at the moment. I need to check all the joins are fully home.
    They tend to hit the rear valence when hot! Stainless expands a lot.
    I used a ratchet strap to pull the centre joint together, get some tension on it then bang it with a rubber mallet.

    Milltek fitted. I need to order two new hangers before I can take her for a spin.

    As I do not have a Tig welder, popped over to see my mate. A small section of the Milltek had been cut off as they apparently could not get the joint apart.
    I need to learn this skill.


    I can’t wait to hear that lovely 5 pot warble.

    I saw an advert for an unknown make RS2 exhaust and downpipe. Took a chance but it was cheap. Got it home and it’s only a genuine downpipe and full cat back 3” Milltek!




    I need to do a small repair then it’s going on.
