Deadmetal Posted August 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2011 Cheers! Random vid. Took the rear pipe off as me and my Dad plan to mod it to get a bit more noise out of it.Had to run it without the pipe just for a bit of fun.

Deadmetal Posted August 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 Exhaust all welded back up after the insides got attacked.Has nice little rumble to it at low revs, not loud, just a bit more noticiable than standard. Give it a few revs and it gets a nice little growl to it.Will get a vid tomoz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shane92 Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 I want to make my exhaust sound like yours! <3Could you be s o kind as to enlighten me how?with minimal funding in mind! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadmetal Posted September 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 (edited) As long as you have acess to a welder and an angle grinder it's pretty easy.The insides of a Lupo back box, atleast mine, looks like this from above.All that was done was the end with tail pipe on was cut off around the seem, (this leaves a good amount of metal to weld it all back together) the exit pipe was cut so it sits just in side the first baffle, the entry pipe was opened up (mine had a nice split down it all ready) and the top baffel was cut 80% out.My Dad and I needed to give the tail pipe section a good wiggle to break the welds holding it to the baffels.Weld the top back on and you're good to go.If you can get it, exhaust sealer/cement is a good idea. My Dad just so happened to have some from the same company that made the back box.You could cut more of the pipes out to make it louder, I went for a pretty subtle approach.I reckon if you know what you're doing you could have it done in a day.Took a couple hours here and there over the bank holiday weekend for my Dad and I as we where going in blind.

Deadmetal Posted September 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 (edited) More non visual mods.Cut some more of the arch liners off. The tyres like to scrub on the liners round corners.BeforeAfter, more space + the liners now flex more.And why I had to buy spacers for the front.

Deadmetal Posted September 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 I'd be surprised if it didn't work.Good prep work is really neaded on intieror parts as they'll of hand greasy hands all over them.Hot soapy water will help alot.
