SKINY Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Looks nice, you could pick up a good 2nd hand Blitz etc system for a few hundred too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Charlie Thompson Posted April 8, 2020 Author Share Posted April 8, 2020 I've bit the bullet and bought one today, should hopefully arrive tomorrow 😀 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
akyakapotter Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 I'd like one only if and when I go stand alone. Good piece of kit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jwood91 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 I bought one of these a while back with a resonator from TD. It sounds great and is built really well. I've had a few compliments about the sound The only problem I had with it is that the rear curve section ended up actually touching the axel slightly (not good when it was vibrating!) I couldnt get it to sit proud and not rub so ended up putting some heatproof silicone on to absorb the vibration and protect the metal which wasn't ideal but more to do with my fitment than the design I'm sure. Guessing by the date of your post its arrived for you now? Im not sure whether it could be simple as using some different rubber hangers but interested to know if you had the same issue and what you did if so? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I had exactly the same issue and I tried everything to rectify it. In the end I took the exhaust off and heated it up where it was touching then brayed it with a hammer to flatten it so it didn't touch. Fits a treat now plus you cant see where I've had to hit it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Im simply just replying as to how I rectified mine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Glad to hear it wasn't just me at least haha. nice to hear you're enjoying it!    On 5/28/2020 at 12:53 PM, akyakapotter said:  Spoke to Mike this morning he's curious why you guys didn't contact him regarding the hitting the beam they are fitting one this weekend so will have a look when fitting it. Cheers nick Same as with me I was happy with the exhaust and when I've spoken to Mike briefly he's been more than helpful . I put it down to my fitment.. would love to know how he got on though  Quote Link to post Share on other sites
