Exhaust

Postby potta_91 on Tue May 12, 2009 7:16 pm

i have recently purchased a 1.1 ford fiesta classic mk3 as my first car. i am just wondering if i fitted a Fiesta mk3 stainless steel Powerflow 4" exhaust would it make the car sound nice? here is a hyperlink of what i might get (would it fit)?

Yeah your exhaust will be louder and more sporty sounding. :D

It should fit as it's from a 1.4 and I'm sure they all have the same size bore as a 1.1/1.3 Fiesta, if not you can get a reducer from Ebay for cheap.

You could send the guy a question on Ebay and ask him to measure the bore of the exhaust, just to make sure.

As above it will most probably fit but 4" on a 1.1 is ridiculous. Plus you will need a full system or have to remove the second silencer to get the noise from it. I've put a 2" scorpion backbox on mine and the sound hasn't changed.

I have had 2 different 4" backboxs on mine and i don't think its ridicolous at all :P

One was a Peco bb4 and the current one is a Sportex one, both of them changed the sound my car made and i still have the second silencer :P

Anything is better than the standard one anyway, apart from the chavvy one's like Rage etc :lol:
