Comp.
Having had enough of chopping out old bits of the car, we decided to make more shiny new bits instead, and everyone loves a shiny exhaust, no?

It took quite a while to get the lengths and routing all right, there's about 2 weeks of evening work in this, even though most of it was sorted by the first two nights, tweaking and altering after that/finishing it off took a while!

As the gears are fairly wide in the van transaxle (haven't fitted that shorter gearset yet, needs lots of fettling to make the syncro's work with it), the lengths are set to bolster the bottom end and midrange torque rather than outright peak power.

That should be enough shiny exhaust pictures to keep anyone satisfied for a while...
