My Ovni Yellow LCR **** - 210 Recaros Stage 2 SOLD AND BOUGHT BACK LOL

[big eck]

Looks great. You really need to start the 2 bucket method wash. You won't believe the amount of **** that comes off the wash mitt and sits in the bottom of the dirty bucket.

How does it work then wash in one rinse mitt in other?

 

[Seal_LCR]

The right exhaust turned up today finally

Think I may play with the fittest abit as it seems slanted? Anyone else got this

Makes a nice noise excepted it to be louder but glad it isn't really. I had a bit of a panic when driving it back home...pulled onto the dual carriageway and there was a huge cloud of blue smoke seems to have cleared now so must of been something in the pipe from factory as oil level is sound after the service 1month ago

 

[big eck]

Yea its a bit on the squint side. That would do my head right in lol.

As for washing, you rinse the mitt out in one bucket then clean with the other one. Try it and see what comes off it lol.

thought you were getting non baffled tailpipe?

 

[t0m]

You can paint the inside of the tailpipe where its baffled with matt black high temp resistant paint from halfords.

I did it with my Piper.

 

[DOLBY]

Get them baffles out seal, then it will sound good


Sent from my iPhone when I should be working....

 

[t0m]

Na it won't make a difference to the sound much at all really. Mine is baffled on the inside but is very loud.

 

[big eck]

Surely it'll make some difference to the sound, that's why you get a choice lol.

The tone of the noise yeah I'd say so, but I can't see it quietening down an exhaust tbh. It's all in the silencers from experience imo..

DK's Milltek is done in this way and actually sounds raspier and louder than the standard open ended Milltek tailpipe on the revised LCR system. His was louder than mine, so I went an bought the Piper, LOL..

It is non baffled the bit you see in the picture is where the tailpipe is welded to the 2.5" pipe.

May just be the picture but it's defo the same as this (1st pipe design)

[t0m]

Does the baffle run down to the inside of the rear silencer?

 

[Seal_LCR]

I'll have to have a look but on the link on my last post mine is the 1st tail and is just like that and the bit you can see on the pic is where the tail is welded to the pipe off the backbox

 

[Seal_LCR]

I'll get a picture later of it if it comes out in the dark

Once your happy with the fit, get some vids, I want to hear it

 

[Seal_LCR]

For will be another night as the missus not long got back but did a quick run. Here's the vids

This one is windows open



The first vid is with windows closed not brilliant but u get an idea

 

[Seal_LCR]

Little mod but still better than standard especially as one was broke

 

[Seal_LCR]

After seeing Tom detailing his engine bay. I decided mine was far from clean, it's still not 'show us you bays' clean but it's a lot better

Before

After

 

[cupra-barn]

Coming on nicely. I will definately be spending a day at Phills sooner rather than later as I've developed a wheel bearing rumble from the front left.

I'll give you a heads up when we do it mate.

 

[Seal_LCR]

It's annoying when repairing pops up. I'm up for that mate just let me know. mine will be on hold til after Xmas now I think as got some much gOing on before then just going to collect little bits at a time for the fmic.

I might be begging a lift to the track day unless I can sort the pcv and check the Cambelt out as I've got a bad feeling bout the Cambelt receipt I have. Need to check it over and make sure it has been replaced.
