Where to buy a Zetec exhaust???
Barronge - 5/8/10 at 12:00 PM

Hello,

Just sorted out my rad, ECU and other bits for the engine, i was wondering if anyone knew of a decent company that supplies a complete Zetec exhaust for a silvertop engine.

The cheaper the better obviously lol

Not necessarily cheap, but you could start by looking in Westfield Sportscar's online shop.

define complete? if you can weld you can get the parts from robin hood.

define cheap? MK will make one (along with a few others).

Complete as in everything pre built and ready to fit and cheap as in not Westfield or caterham lol

I got my manifold and exhaust from robin hood.

Passed the IVA with them.
Didn't need any welding.
Cheers

Trouble is a complete exhaust will need to be made up to suit indivdual vehcles, based on engine position, angle and exit point. Buying an 'off the shelf' one from mk/raw etc may end up not suiting your car.
Maybe better of speaking to a specialist menufacturer?

Good point..... new question then, does anyone know anyone who can make them???

Adapt an st170 manifold?

I really would NOT buy the tiger manifold.. Mine is from Fisher sports cars but I did need to make up a link pipe.

I bought my manifold from Fisher (already had the rest of it), nice bit of kit and not too pricey. Our local fabricators (who do a good job I must admit) wanted almost twice as much as Fisher for the manifold.

Can I ask why not the tiger exhaust? I'm not trying to cause an arguement I'm just curious. Have you had a bad experience with them?
I only ask because my system is well made and slots together a treat. Not to mention the sound, which is awesome

You see I like the tiger exhaust... But I also like the fisher exhaust.. But which is best, there's only one way to find out.................FIGHT!!!!!!

Seriosly though how much was the fisher

Ive owned both.

With the tiger the quality and the welding was very poor but its did fit together just.

BUT it exits where the diagonal bars are in a locost. You will end up choping the chassis for it.
