Hi folks,The exhaust on my car is a pretty much brand new standard unit, but sadly it isn't OEM and is the cylindrical shape not a pressed box. I am going to get a klarius unit but keep seeing exhaust fitting kits coming up on ebay.I haven't looked into how the exhaust is fitted on my car but I'm guessing I will need a donut gasket and some other odds and ends. Are these ebay fitting kits any good or am I better getting the bits separately? Cheers. |

You don't need a fitting kit unless you are removing the cat________________________________________ Ryan |

I'd be replacing the mid pipe and back box.I also want to get the heat shield off so I can fit some new gear pivot bushes. |

Might as well ring a dealer for a price. If your local is too far or won't post Warners Peugeot in Tewkesbury will post and are pretty helpful and useful. Think WP recommended them to me in the past and I've used them to post things and have been really happy with their service.________________________________________ 61k miles Ph.1 Diablo '6 Project Thread |

Oh, sorry no the fitting kit is for re-fitting the cat.If you are swapping exhaust bits I highly recommend using new exhaust clamps though. Makes refitting way easier and better-done, plus for any future work it comes apart very easily. ________________________________________ 61k miles Ph.1 Diablo '6 Project Thread |

i've used loads of pattern parts from Andrew Page and ECP, never had an issue. only time i got a genuine one was for my S16 engine where the fire ring was different so was a pain to get the right one i believenew exhaust clamps are a good shout, although i've reused them in the past fine just make sure the cat fits the centre the same way. some are sleeve fitment like magnex so you'd need the magnex decat or to chop/weld them together ________________________________________ 306 rallye reproduction decals (full sets/individual decals) | 306 b-pillar textured vinyl weatherstrips306 slam panel esso stickers | 306 yellow / orange / pension fund red side door badges gti6 inlet manifold badges | 306 rear boot badges (p2/p3) winner of Extraction of toys from prams with outstanding vigour award 2009 [source: gti6 owners club] |

The exhaust on the car is just a pattern part(euroflo) but has only been on the car for about 9 months so clamps etc should be fine.The plan is to change the gear stick pivot,exhaust and clutch cable all whilst the car is in the air....on rikkys drive... |

I've bought Mikalor clamps for my Magnex to try and get a decent clamp around the joints.________________________________________  |

Haha I was only joking mate don't worry although any help would be awesome. My family home is in Blackpool and I don't have a garage or driveway here in Manchester so only have my little back up tool kit.If you're free over the next few weeks and fancy some tinkering the car is now driveable so I can come drive over.I'm talking about the little pivot bushes on the bottom of the stick itself but if theres anything else you think should be done at the same time I'll get ordering some parts. |
