Default Exhaust build.

Well, Hopefully next week , I will be starting my exhaust build. The car is a little loud without it despite only being a 1.8CVH.

I have a Can from a Westie, and have orderd pipe up from Jetex in order to build up the system.

Yeah, have the RST manifold on. Should have it fabbed up fairly quickly hopefuly.

Did you do anything in the end to mate the RST head to the Sierra Head? I also notice the sierra gasket would leak badly if used is there an RST gasket?

Cheers

Where can you get these SVC type exhaust silencers from as they don't appear to them anymore. Also what size is yours Adrian, as I remember it was very quite.
