new exhaust idea,... hey it was cheap

[Tjaap]

so yeh... i've seen the same stands selling the same tips on every meeting for years now..
always the same DTM style tips which i don't like at all....
but lately the prices of them were dropping like flies.

and when i found a DTM tip at worthersee for €10 i couldn't resist...

been ly-ing in my room since may, being all nice and shiny but it was that dumb DTM style... untill i thought up that it might look cool if the tip wasn't pointing upwards but downwards to a side.. so i got myself a hollow 16V exhaust for free (thanks Marc and Maikel ;) ) and got Stijn to weld on the tip for me.
check the results and tell me if you like it....

total costs.. € 10 for the tip, € 0 for the exhaust, and € an afternoon of me helping Stijn sanding his new project for the welding

http://www.clubs.nl/ClubsData/47117/incoming/108-0848_img.jpg the welds are nice and Stijn coated them in zinc spray. now all i need is to paint the exhaust end pipe upto the tip in black

wadda you think?

very nice Jaap !!!!! it's much better than the old one !

[johangolf1]

it looks very cool... not as a usual exhaust...

[Marco]

Nice idea !! Looks like the tip is pointing a little bit more to the side then downwards

[Tjaap]

true, it points down to the left.. lets say to 7 'o clock.

[johangolf1]

never have seen this before... its uniek...

It looks cool but isn't a 16V exhaust because it has only one outcoming pipe.
I got myself a cool mid section lately, I welded up a stainless steel 2.5 inch pipe from the end of the header (spaghetti) to the rear silencer. I also added flanges instead of the always twisting shove over connections.

[Stijn]

Still looks shiny though....

[Tjaap]

nope, the "olieboot" has smoked it pure black on the inside now
