new exhaust idea,... hey it was cheap
 
so yeh... i've seen the same stands selling the same tips on every meeting for years now..
always the same DTM style tips which i don't like at all....
but lately the prices of them were dropping like flies.

and when i found a DTM tip at worthersee for €10 i couldn't resist...

been ly-ing in my room since may, being all nice and shiny but it was that dumb DTM style... untill i thought up that it might look cool if the tip wasn't pointing upwards but downwards to a side.. so i got myself a hollow 16V exhaust for free (thanks Marc and Maikel ;) ) and got Stijn to weld on the tip for me.
check the results and tell me if you like it....

total costs.. € 10 for the tip, € 0 for the exhaust, and € an afternoon of me helping Stijn sanding his new project for the welding






the welds are nice and Stijn coated them in zinc spray. now all i need is to paint the exhaust end pipe upto the tip in black

wadda you think?

very nice Jaap !!!!! it's much better than the old one !

it looks very cool... not as a usual exhaust...

Marco 19-08-2004 22:09

Nice idea !! Looks like the tip is pointing a little bit more to the side then downwards

Tjaap 19-08-2004 22:22

true, it points down to the left.. lets say to 7 'o clock.

johangolf1 19-08-2004 22:23

never have seen this before... its uniek...

It looks cool but isn't a 16V exhaust because it has only one outcoming pipe.
I got myself a cool mid section lately, I welded up a stainless steel 2.5 inch pipe from the end of the header (spaghetti) to the rear silencer. I also added flanges instead of the always twisting shove over connections.

Stijn 24-08-2004 22:29

Tjaap 25-08-2004 02:33
