Exhaust

[josh263uk]

Hi all.

Where would be the best place to get a diesel FR exhaust backbox?

Its needed as the standard exhaust on my Formula Sport is melting my new exhaust cover due to it being to close to the plastic( thanks Matty all recieved). I think the FR back box will fit, any one shed some light on this?

Thanks

ebay and the fore sale section on here is prob best!

I may be getting a mufflerectomy in summer (if i save up enough)...if so it will be posted in the F.S. section!

Just a question is your exhaust covered or does it have a shiny end?

Mine will be off once I have sorted my melting problem.


I have done a bit more exploring to what I want. Here is a picture of the back box required:

Now at point 11, mine is 46mm external diameter, would it be an FR box or just a standard 100bhp diesel backbox?

Thanks

Im after one that bends down so that I can cover the exhaust up.

Could do, but they dont have many 2nd hand at the moment as they are a new dealer

I may wander down with a vernier gauge to measure the diameter of the exhaust, unless some one has a 100bhp diesel an would like to do it for me

This is why I went for a SS exhaust, life time warrenty

Just need to ask what the diameter is, but off on holiday next week so got other things to do.

 

[Matty.]

Ah well was worth a try whilst i was looking for more stuff for mine I never stop

Hope you get it sorted so theres no more melting

I have my Cupra backbox sitting in the garage. Just haven't got round to selling it yet!

Mufflerectomy is the way forward... very cheap and simple enough to do.

Here is a photo of mines...

I think the diesel/turbo models have bigger bore pipe than N/A engines.

But apparently the diesel backboxs on the petrols do make them sound nicer.

 

[josh263uk]

I think that the diesel would fit, even if it was only the 100bhp diesel. I believe that the diameter of the Formula sport is bigger then the standard 1.4 sport.


No ones got a 100 BHP diesel, with a standard pipe have they so they can measure the diameter.........

Pretty sure they are 2.5'. Iirc. If not you'll just have to buy some reducers and make it fit!

hey kriso u said you got a cupra back box for sale, u have any idea if this would fit onto my 1.4 sport?

 

[Ric 2001]

Just looked on ETKA and the only difference in the exhaust system looks like the down pipe and CAT. Everything else looks the same. So it should fit the stock sections.

Don't know if it will fit under the rear bumper/valance though.
