All goosed up...

Fitted my mongoose system yesterday..got a bit wet doing it, god i want a garage lol.

Old system off..took about 20 mins....

....mainly due to this:

Grinder sorted that out ...but it meant i had to remove the cat to get studs out :smile5:

Nice gasket:

Had to drill the studs out and replacewith ss m10's

Fitted:

All slotted together great..a breeze to fit. You have to make a hanger for the nearside backbox..i happened to have a bit of m12 stainless threaded bar that worked a treat. All in all took about 3 hours.

Sounds very nice, actually quieter at low revs than my old standard zorst..which turned out to have been blowing quite badly:smile5:

Thanks to Charliecd001 for the great deal on the system

Thinking of painting the tips black..wadda you think.

Just need a Pid brand infil panel to finish off

Good work Martin, I would leave the tips steel.

Nice work Mart, I'm with Phil, leave the tips, if you paint them they'll dtart to chip and look crappy :nono:
Glad to see you didn't neglect the grinder!
Oh, and the infill is easily sorted What colour would you like?

Just a straight piece of m12 threaded bar 4 inch long with 2 nuts on.
On the drivers side the hanger is there attached to a hanging bracket..the same bracket is on the nearside but had a plasic blanking plug..i just removed the plug and inserted the threaded bar.

Yeah, sounds very nice when i give it some..seems a bit perkier too

 

[cmewse]

I see you have the K&N fitted two, bet it make a lovley sound, i do like to drop the window and boot her in 2nd, i think it sounds like a V8

Someone has been busy!!! Looks good mate, think I will have to sort something for mine some time soon! Makes a hell of a difference to the rear of the cat having dual exits. Does it feel more responsive???

 

[dogsbody]

Cheers, i'm very happy with it, like you say it looks a load better from the back and, yes, it does feel a bit more responsive.
