HI Guys,
Just over joyed at gaining an extra 3" of ground clearance at centre of Berly. Tried all bumps with 2 xup, total silance at 30mph.
How ?.
My local exhaust garage I gave open cheque to replace my( 6 x times in 4 yrs, damaged via speed humps and rail crossings) with a new stainless front to back system and attempt to rase clearance on Pinto Cortina powered.
Apon driving onto ramp in garage for inital inspection, the car grounded itself by locking solid half on and half off.
So for 3 days puzzle started.
Now, WOW.
He routed exhaust from engine exhaust manifold streight down then forward accross engine sump beneith timming chain ( giving a sump protector) then over to inner chassie( keeping away from fuel pipe). streight to rear axel, looping over axel gaining a single duel enclosed silencer box. Then exiting under rear valance in twin megatone short enlarged pipes. ( box and megatone are sports car derived), pipe is70mm.
Increase in BHP IS 3/5,, petrol is up 5 mpg, engine sounds alive and well, plus looks like a V8 from behind.
Costs £365.00. Good for me and my Berly.
