tdwindustries Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 I think drag racing might be a different exhaust requirement to an F1 exhaust - but I might be wrong.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdwindustries Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 I will stick to building Exhausts & running a Race Team for a livingask him to show you the pics of his drag team there isnt amny on the wall lolI think drag racing might be a different exhaust requirement to an F1 exhaust - but I might be wrong....you got an F1 car tdwindustries? Your confusing me (i no it dont take much)tbh - powerflow have always had a bad reputation on here, and someone coming on and advertsing isnt going to make it better - without mentioning the discount!No one deserves to be beaten down, especially when new to the forum.... if Tim @ Top gear posts some graphs of power gains, he will probably be able to stp the arguments straight away....

I think you may be right.The guys were running two Scooby powered Beetles, I was sure they said they built exhausts.Was a couple of years back, and fallen off my bike since then. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shades:" border="0" alt="shades.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigz™ Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 When did anyone slag him off?Will this powerflow exhaust be any better than the standard GTI one? Yes. Because we run Straight Through Boxes, you will get a Decent Tone out of the System & a POWER increase Thats proven is it? That was my main point.http://www.mkcruise.co.uk/They may believe the hype, I just expect to see proof when a company throws claims around.

big_chris1981 Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 there was a powerflow exhaust on the g40 i had.....wasnt too impressed tbh....but then it was on when i bought the car.setting off car alarms would not be high on my list of desired side effects of performace exhaust....

Tigz™ Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 what was it on that janspeed system? and did that give a power increase? and scorpion system too? There was no real reserch done on the Scorpion.Think it was a built as a bit of a 'safe' system like the Jetex system I have.Plenty of back pressure, so much so you can almost feel the restriction.I think Janspeed spent quite a bit of time on Tims exhaust although I dont think they ever finished it, or tested it.We need someone to head up to Leeds to have one done style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
