Thinking of making a striaght through exhaust for the vRS.

Seen some stainless steel pipe on ebay. Going to need a few lenghts and maybe some elbows or a pipe bender. Question is would this pipe be ok and has anyone else made there own?

cheers stephen

3" is perhaps a bit excessive, but it would do the job if you had a way of bending it, etc. Getting around the rear beam is a royal pain in the ass, but then at least you will have your current exhaust as a template.

Cheers. What would be better suited? 2'' or 2 1/2'' . My uncle should be able to do it at work, seeing as he's done other bits for me. (perks of him working at Mclaren )

If not ill just have a side exit exhaust or something.

Hi mate,

I work at a custom exhaust place we put 2" on most fabia's as a type r runs 2" and pushes out 200 bhp I would go for 2" as you can bend it on benders as far as 2 1/2" I'm running it on mine but I had to cut and weld rather than just bend as you lose diameter inside. I wouldn't go for 3" as it won't help at all we only put 3" on things running near or over 300 bhp

hope this helps

That great, thanks andy.

Also save's some money.

Edit: What the diameter of the standard pipe?

No bother glad to help

I'd go 2 and a half inch...

2 Inch is a little small really..

Im sure people like Jason would back me up on this too..
