    twingo 133 custom exhaust, £100, located in Halesowen

    Hi all, So I took the exhaust off my twingo after I had to take it in for warranty work due to sensor faults. Unlikely to refit it, so I'm going to see what interest I get for it, as its sitting in my garage gathering dust at the moment. So the details. Exhaust comprises of a downpipe...

    MPG dropping

    You're probably right, i still think the service intervals on the RS range are far too long. My facelift has never had over 30mpg so I don't think you're doing too bad in fairness.

    Post your engine/exhaust sound

    :) I remember the days I've slapping a cda on my clio 172. Completely drowned out the exhaust until I got it decatted and then the car was just ridiculous. They do sound good but I found I lost a fair chunk of power after fitting it and in the end went back to the standard box with a better...

    V9fQmnbaU00 Finally got round to doing a video of mine :) Custom - manifold back, no silencers just a back box - 2.25inches

    Ok cool. Might ask my mate to try it this way. Should only take about 30 mins to change my current arrangement. Is the diameter of the pipe 2 inch still? I'm assuming the r1 runs a different manifold as well?

    Do r1's just have a pipe with no back box? I may run this setup if thats the case. They do sound awesome.

    Exhaust Differences...

    Coincidentally I was offered one about 6 months ago for something like 500 quid but I didn't have any spare money at the time. A guy I used to work with knew someone who'd been racing one but was selling up to move up to quicker class of car. Exhaust is all done now. Sounds relatively deep at...

    Exhaust Differences...

    :) How does it sound? raspy? Tbh subtle isn't my style. It'll literally be one pipe all the way back with a reasonable sized back box. Just to clarify, I'm not expecting gains from doing this. The gains come from mapping I guess, but I was pondering whether the k-tec system with the manifold...

    Sadly I won't be able to get it RR'd before it gets done - it's being fitted today lol. It'll be going to RS Tuning sometime over the next month though. So it'll be interesting to see what it makes with just an exhaust and filter.

    In fairness he's done a few in the past but previously I've only had them done to add a bit of noise to the driving experience - clio 172 and 197 respectively. Quality of his work has always been pretty good, however this time I'm looking to try and extract a bit more power from the engine hence...

    Lol, a valid point. Performance wise, can I expect anything less going with a custom exhaust? Can a bit of tube make any significant impact where remapping is concerned? Thanks for the reply btw

    Can someone just clarify whether or not I'll have any issues further down the line if I decide to go ahead with a custom exhaust from a friends garage. I've requested a manifold back system, 2.5 inch. He'll do it for a silly low price. But I'm intending to change the manifold in a couple of...

    So this happened

    I'm just debating whether or not it's worth sacrificing warranty for lol. Thanks for the reply though. I've already spent 700 quid this week on the car so I may have a think over the next few days

    So this happened

    How competent do you need to be mechanically to fit this? Also what's the cost for filling a bottle and where? Apologies for the questions, I just can't be bothered googling atm lol :)

    exhaust

    Get back to me if you do, I'm sure Fred never got back to me when I last emailed him, but then he does say ring him if you want a prompt reply. Couldn't see why a yozza system for a 172 couldn't be adapted to a twingo.

    Facelift 133 Pics

    Nah its plastic :) or at least mine is lol

    Is it worth it?

    As DrDrew said - get yourself a test drive of one and see what you make of it. I went from a clio 197 to a twingo and it hasn't bothered me in the slightest. I have just as much fun in the twingo as I previously had in the 197.

    couple of hours labour i'd have thought - £60 - £100 somewhere around there
