I am wondering if it would be possible to fab up my own exhaust system for my 1.8L engine. I figure i might be able to save some money this way, instead of buying a brand new one from AA or whomever and i'll learn how to make an exhaust as well. Just wanted to see what other people have done and how they went about it. Pictures would be great. I plan on getting rid of the heat exchangers if that helps out at all!
Thanks in advance everybody!! |

That tangerine system is pretty sweet. However, how many horsepower do you imagine that the extra 1700 in cost gets you? It just seems like the 1700 extra for the tangerine system could be better spent on other things... Unless you are racing competitively and in a specific class where even 2 or 3 hp can make a difference.
I could be wrong and I am sure someone will chime in but I always try to look at cost/benefit and alternatives. |
