hey guys... as im getting rid of my standard xr2i exhaust i wanted to swap it for rs stylee 3inch, outward rolled, mongoose full system... now first of all... does anybody know a retailer that sells this...(ill sway either way on size and brand slightly.. but it has to be outward rolled!!) as ive tried everywhere i have bookmarked over the last year and googled several phrases but it leads me to my other prob.. my car is j reg.. 1991.... pre cat so im to beleive from the fiestaturbo.com zetec tuning guide.... so this means i want a pre 1992 exhaust right?? which is decat.... or do i get a 1992> system and have a cat!?!?!? im not even sure if my car doesnt have a cat... by dates it shouldnt but when shopping for exhausts it only shows the 1.6 cvh as non cat bearing?!!? help pwease.

thanx dave.

All Zetec systems will be catalytic converter back. If you want a full system and to ditch the cat (whcih from memory you are quite able to do with being a 91 car) you might do well to contact Hayward and Scott for a quality bespoke system that does exactly what you want.

Mongoose don't do a 3'' inch outrolled off the shelf for the xr2i. rs_brammer off here modified one though, to fit his FRST.

H&S quotes me £850 for a FRST system as they do not have a Fiesta jig.

If you want the 3'' outrolled system i'd get in contact with collins performanc (mongoose) and ask them just for the cat back (assuming you do have the zetec engine, or decat or whatever you want) system without the back box. Then go to some one like longlife exhausts and get them to make you a custom backbox which will cost you about £100. I have used the carshaulton branch and they are clued up in terms of using the correct piping for flow and back pressure.

Hope that helps.

You could go to Ashley for a full system from the fanimold to the back box and its without the cat. That would mean having to make some sort of flanged arrangement for the cat for MOT time, or changing the whole system back so the tester can see it.

I've no experience of the systems myself but I seem to remember people saying they wern't out of this world, and there not stainless, for that extra longevity.

i would recommend an ashley system, they come in either 3" or 4" but they arent outward rolled. they are however, cheap, and do exactly what they are supposed to do
