Full exhaust system fitted :D

[Gildo]

hey guys, all that talk about gettin the exhaust system put on once its ready from xforce....well it happend the other day :D

final verdict.....i am so happy....the car now sounds like a decent car. not an electronic lawnmower with an exhaust......

the power increase is extreamly noticable and response has improved dramatically....so final verdict.... VERY HAPPY :D :D
will get pics up soon

[CJB]

Cool man! :)


Does it affect your fuel consumption at all?

Very happy for ya man.

What did you get done?

[DirtyHarry]

what astra model you drive?

[PaulyJ]

He drives a Barina SRi 1.8

[Charlatan]

Dyno'd?...

[Gildo]

dyno'd 7.8 kw at the wheel increase.........but it feels alot greater than that as it can get the power down alot faster....

what was done...
custom manifold, highflow car, 2 1/4 steinless steel piping, twin tiprear muffler (all xforce parts)

[ultim8DTM5]

Seems like a great result!

[Charlatan]

That is a good result. What were the $$ for the upgrade?

[Gildo]

well im not sure, as i got the system for free as they used my car to make a mould.....i would guess around $1500 with highflow cat installed but im not 100% sure

[PaulyJ]

Awesome results

[btm]

that was at bestmufflers right?

nice work gildo!

[lowey22]

[Gildo]

yeh best mufflers built the anitial design, but xforce, made the mould and cast it for mass production

[btm]

Hi all im new here. Re your exhaust i did this a couple of years ago when i had my Barina SRI good gains even better with a pod on the intake these things really move when they breath. Also great on the fuel. Enjoy they are a great car..
Regards

[mr_sikma]

wheres the pics??? lol

i wana see the tip!

[1OPL2C]

spoke to chris and he said the extractors made by xforce were dodgy and didnt fit! so longer wait for ppl who want it.

[Gildo]

yup, this is true. my set i have on now isnt 100% final.
i will be gettin final set soon

[entice]

for 1500 i'd surely want some sort of ADR compliance! that's a hefty sting in teh sky rocket...

[Gildo]

ADR complient??

[entice]

yeah, for emissions and the like...

ie, bolt on and compliance for emissions re noise and pollution.

APS use to provide adr compliance for certain systems, so if you get pulled over, and nabbed for noise or epa, you provide the certificate of compliance and u r OK.

[Gildo]

ahh right, yeh i dont think it should be a problem.....its just a barina hehehehe
