Lad that works with the local Vauxhall forum came in yesterday with his cav turbo, its a lovely example so heres a few pics:







and the reason he came in? a new turbo back exhaust system

custom downpipe and sports cat:



then a straight through centre section and a large backbox with twin square tailpipe:








pics were taken before we cleaned up all the welds etc... really want a cav 4x4 turbo now

exhaust was a complete bastard to do, no room at all on the rear of these, theres about 8mm clearance either side when you try and get the exhaust through the rear wishbone/propshaft/driveshaft/rear ARB section.

Im not 100% on the wheels, they do really suit the car, looks even better in the flesh

if he did sell it I feel I may be making first offers on it, engine bay looks really nice as well, didnt get any pics though.

we use the Cobra seamless boxes as we are an Exhausts Uk dealer, for motorsport use we use a custom box system so we can pack the silencers with the correct amounts of ceramic wadding and reseal them.
