Scoobyghost Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 lol dash cams broken already.... hahah cheap chinese !Removed!Oh dear. How'd you break it?
tom_gr7 Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 Oh dear. How'd you break it? lol, i didn't do anything haha. I just started the engine as you normally do and it froze, wouldn't respond, wouldn't turn off, had this horrible ticking noise. Had to run it flat before i could get it to respond again. Just noticed that half of the recordings do not work either.... Sending it back to Amazon. 1
Gaulson Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Avoided seeing my car since the crash, waiting until this weekend then starting to strip the damaged stuff off and get shopping :D. Quite enjoying driving the Leon... the fuel gauge doesn't go down!
david1972 Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Got the car back now with new exhaust [emoji2] Once I've sorted pics and vids out I'll post them up Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 2

Scoobyghost Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Looks much better mate. [emoji5] does it feel any different?
david1972 Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Thanks [emoji2] There's a bit more oomph there, probably because of the power loss from the old unit failing....lovely low rumble when cruising though; just enough to know it's there without being intrusive [emoji106] Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 1
david1972 Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Here are a couple of links to give an idea of the sound (Majik, Tom) The first one the mrs was scared to give it too many beans lol 2
savage bulldogs Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Looks and sounds sweet that David [emoji106] As for my subaru now I've fitted the newage coilpacks and they're working fine (no misfire) I booked another map tweek and rolling road session @ clive attowes [emoji39] Roll on march the 6th [emoji12] 1
tom_gr7 Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Yeah David that sounds pretty ace bud :) if i may ask, how much did they charge? My exhaust will be pretty much the same as yours, twin exit catback and was quoted 599 by a longlife dealer and 740 by cobra in Sheffield. 1
david1972 Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Ended up at £425 all in mate - he took £25 off for me today without any prompting. I mentioned that another club member may be in touch and he said no problem; he'd just want to see the car beforehand - he thought you may be running a single exit system currently? He said there are some cars that once he's fitted one of these systems to the, they way it sounds just makes him want one....glad to say mine fell into that category ;) 1
Xander Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 That's not a bad price I fancy something like that for mine so good to know an idea of price. 1
Steveuk260.Esq Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Put forester on dyno to help investigate boost issue.

Will give him a call lol... conveniently I happen to have a week off in March.... Yeah quite a few of the mk4 legacies have twin exits, but quite a few of the earlier mk4's only have single exits. I'd guess mine would be a similar job to yours. Did he ask you how you wanted it to sound btw?
david1972 Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 To be honest mate, no not really. I told him I didn't want anything too loud and he said don't worry, I know what you mean. He's not one for liking things excessively loud and seems to understand cars well. It's james you need to ask for. If you want a look at my system beforehand just let me know and we can organise something between us [emoji106] Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 1
Gambit Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 That's not a bad price I fancy something like that for mine so good to know an idea of price. If you want the burble need to change the headers only downside to the hatchback for me was the equal length headers :( And does sound pretty good Dave looks loads better too. 1
david1972 Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Cheers mate [emoji106] I keep trying to think of reasons to go out now haha Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 1
majik_thighs Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 You`ll have to keep those trumpets polished!
david1972 Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Nothing wrong with polishing ones trumpets [emoji6] Got some megs metal polish already in my stash of goodies in the garage [emoji106] Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
