Bike Can on a car engine
I'm not sure if this has been covered before but here goes.....
I was thinking of using a stainless bike can on my 1650cc crossflow, as you can pick one up so cheap. I've got a westfield 4-1 manifold, so I
should just need a link pipe (7degree bend) and then the tail pipe modding (chopping off and replaced with a 90 degree bend !).
Will this work, gas scavenging etc, and any idea comparitively how loud it would be to say a std westfield type exhaust ?
Its already registered so no sva worries !!!!!
Cheers
Peter.

Ive got a ZX9 carbon can on my car .I fitted it because the packing blew out of the box i originally fitted,it was then very noisy and reduced power.I
fitted the bike can as a temporary fitment and left the tailpipe as on the bike, it is angled so as not to blow directly on the rear wing and has not
been a problem.
It is still very noisy but sounds better and the engine seems to run better than with the knackered car box that was on it.
So far it is surviving use on the car well.
Paul.
