k-tec exhausts for 1.2s

[RobFenn]

On their website they are missing pictures and refer to the exhausts in code, ive also lost my brochure so can someone list what they do for us 1.2 16v owners? I was hoping they do a twin 3 inch but apparently not.

Cheers,

-Rob

 

[Tom]

yeah they do im sure of it best to email

 

[Essex_Lad]

i doubt they do a twin but ill av a look at my catologue when i get bak in an hour!

 

[RobFenn]

Sweet.

-Rob

 

[Steveold]

Yes they do the twin.... I phoned him when I brought my oval many moons ago. Its more expensive than the oval though.

 

[RobFenn]

Nice one. Thanks lads.

-Rob

 

[R3OBC]

yeah they do it!!!!!!!! Mine is awaiting delivery!!! next week hopefully..........3week wait

 

[RobFenn]

Damn i have a rival with the same name! How much did you pay for it (inc vat) and where you getting it fitted?

Cheers

-Rob

 

[R3OBC]

£220, delivered, including 10% Cliosport discount. My Mate is fitting it at his unit. I was told they should be in stock this week, so hope to take delivery soon!!!

 

[RobFenn]

At his unit? Whats that mean? For someone who has no mates where could i get mine fitted?

-Rob

 

[R3OBC]

his unit........little building he works in........he has recntly opened up his own Audio Business, and undertakes many little modifications!!! http://www.fhzaudio.co.ukhttp://www.fhzaudio.co.uk i guess any garage would fir an exhaust for u

 

[Bryan]

also to add to the details so far

its bloody loud

 

[Essex_Lad]

order number no C1ESSE049 TYPE OF EXIT K2

 

[RobFenn]

Bambam, i heard they toned it down though, or have you got the earlier one?

-Rob

 

[Bryan]

ive actually got the 6x3 oval, which is also very loud, but then again, i have no centre section

they have toned it down, but it is still very loud, sounds good though

 

[RobFenn]

Anythings better than the first gear whine i get!

-Rob

 

[Bryan]

lol

good point

 

[theICEman]

Bambam, whats the point in having a back box if you got no centre section??? Do you mean you have no silencer in the centre section?? Im a little puzzled!

 

[Bryan]

yeah sorry was a little unclear with my comments

yeah i have a straight thru pipe instead of a centre silencer

 

[RIOT]

The two Robs ....

Does this twin pipe fit around the standard bumber or have you put a new bumper on ?

Im feeling like I need a bit more power, got beaten to 60 by a friggin Citroen C3 today !

 

[stephen_a]

i hope k-tec get the exhausts in stock soon, all this waiting is deadly!

 

[Bryan]

the k-tec exhaust fits underneath the standard rear bumper and has a height adjustable rear braket

 

[RobFenn]

Yeah the height adjustment thing is good idea by k-tec, a nice snug fit will be yours! I doubt an exhaust will much improve your chances RIOT.

[R3OBC]

bambam.........lol, just to annoy ya more......no centre silencer??? u mean no Cat? the Cat sits under the gearstick on mine, and the exhaust is straight through from the Cat to the Back box as standard........my standard system only has ONE box after the CAT....the back box...is ur standard system different, or does the K-tec come with a centre box after the CAT too? Rob

lol I know its just my excuse to justify buying a nice shiny exhaust and get the bonus of a nice xorst note

On another note my car registraition number is X8RST get it ?... ..X0RST

No....?!?........ ah well it was just a bonus my initials are RST

 

[Bryan]

R3OBC - basically from the cat back i only have one silencer (not very big either)

AFAIK you can get a centre silencer from k-tec (designed to dampen the noise from the k2 exhaust)

 

[R3OBC]

right! well, i guess the silencer will be the back box on my system..........oh......ill just need to see when it arrives! Rob

 

[Ben_1uk]

Are K-tec zorsts better than Powerflow zorsts?

 

[Bryan]

debateable

both have their plus and minus points

 

[Ben_1uk]

The thing that puts me off Powerflow is the difference in price and the difference in the quality of work between the different dealerships. Ive heard a lot of people complaining about how rude the staff are and how un-interested they seem. Its almost like they hate making custom exhausts because it takes them too long or something!

K-tec on the other and make some really sweet looking zorsts but Ive heard that theyre mega loud. I dont want something thats going to sound too nova-ish - if you know what I mean! Who here has a k-tec exhaust and are you pleased with it?

 

[Benj]

ive just got one one with the k2 exit and the larger center silencer, its ok but annoying on the motorway - way louder than i was expecting - took 3 fittings at my local garage too cos the center silencer kept rattling against the heat shield.

 

[Dave]

Hmmm. Do Powerflow do them for 1.2s?
