[fatz]

[rad100]

[NYTSKY]

Took its first breaths last night

[DVS JEZ]

Awesome. Get some footage

[gtr_scottie]

Heard it in person all i can say it is automotive pornography it is gonna be insane

[BoostdR]

past the cat it makes no difference, especially at 4 inches!

My exhaust goes from twin 3" into a single 3.5 into a 5" muffler. I ran twi3 3" side pipes at the track and my boost rose to 2.3bar from 1.6 with no other changes. At 450rwkw+ twin 3" is the only way to go. A sinlge 4" flows 12.5% less than a twin 3" but without the associated cost...

For interest sake a 4" has 20% more area/flow than a 3.5"....

cool! glad to see it's up and running. look forward to seeing what you think.

Been a few weeks, so time for another update.

Trailered the car from Pauls to Wholesale Suspension in Penrith.

Had to have the front swaybar re-bent to give a good clearance from the sump. Custom mounts and all new bushes were also installed.

I had some adjustable rear camber arms installed to get the camber back to 0 for better traction.

The car was also raised 10mm.

After that the car was trailered to Shauns Custom Alloy. The new intercooler has 3inch ends and im now using a Q45 throttle body so all new cooler pipes had to be made as well as a new intake, which now has the pod mounted through the guard.

A new catch can was also fabricated which now has the breather hidden

One small over sight was the stock clutch fan fouling the pulley for the external oil pump. So an alloy radiator and dual 12inch thermo fans will now be used for cooling.

The car was then trailered to JEM where it is now getting the final touches and awaiting dyno time.

Just Engine Management are now agents for Zeitronix. Zeitronix are a US company and are famous for their award winning Wideband/Lamba kits and monitoring gear.

JEM will be fitting a Zeitronix Zt-3 + ZR-1 AFR and Lambda Gauge Display Bundle.

In this kit the Zt-3 Wideband is bundled with the ZR-1 Gauge. The ZR-1 Gauge displays Air/Fuel ratio or Lambda values and has a peak and hold feature. High contrast LEDs are visible even in a direct sunlight.

Includes the Zt-3 Wideband Air/Fuel Ratio Meter, Sensor Harness, Signal Harness, PC Serial Cable and Installation Instructions. Data splitter included for simultaneous display and datalogging use.

Available with or without the wideband oxygen sensor. Made in the USA.

More to come soon.

Exhaust is finished, work of art! I bought 2 cats, one 5inch 400cpi Euro 4 and one 5inch 100cpi.

Still the same clutch but bought an alloy flywheel from the states.

Should have the car home very soon, just some minor things to tidy up.

What brand mufflers are they? Custom? They look to be the buisness either way!

How come ur running a pod under the gaurd?

Arent u keeping it legal?

[STATUS]

ive always been a fan of the lobster back bends as i appreciate the workmanship involved - nothing beats it!

is there a performance gain from this though as 1 would think that a mendrel bend would flow better as it is a smooth curved edge & there is no weld edge on the inside of the pipe - i guess the difference is within a bees d1ck anyway lol

its done cause its cheap and if you hvae a drop saw if actually quite quick to do. Your correct it does not flow as well as a mandrel bend.... but costs a 1/4 to make.

It will have an airbox so the pod wont be seen. I can always shorten it if it becomes a problem.

There was nothing cheap about this exhaust unfortunately as it was the first made. The subsequent ones will alot cheaper as the design is already done.

Mufflers are custom. Made by an employee of 888 Motorsport.

Sorry dave didnt mean to offend, the question was asked why lobster over mandrel bend and i just pointed out why its done, i can imagine the mufflers alone were quite exy.
