exhaust side exit?

Post by 160jsss »

I'm trying to get my car on the road started thinking about the exhaust existing out the side before the back wheel. As it's a coupe I can pass a WOF ay. Yes I'm taking the easy and cheep way as I can do it now but I also like the way it looks. Just don't want to rock up for a WOF and get told to fuck of and get a exhaust.

as long as its not too loud and exits behind the rear most passenger(so behind the rear seat) you should be all right

Yer I thought that was the story I'm planing on using two hot dog resonators keeping the pipe size the same from the extractors so it should have a deep grunty sound it's not going to be a dickmobile with a 1" pipe and a 6" tip buzzing round town .

I know that "legally" you can only run a side exit exhaust if the rear passenger windows cannot be opened, and even if you lock them shut somehow it it still illegal, but i guess it really some down to who is doing the warrant and if there a GC or not
