Exhausting stuff.....

[Porny]

Got my 90 back from Chris at www.exactfabrication.co.uk on Friday...

Has now got a full stainless 2.5" side exit exhaust, and unlike most other custom exhaust places it is fully TIG welded (very well!!!) and not just MIG'd.  (and is a higher than normal grade stainless)

Whilst not overly load, the exhaust note is quite cheeky   but not too intrusive.

I can not rate Chris enough... the standard of the work is 110% (as was the service) and as with any good product, the quality is in the detail - like the use of stainless steel fixings, the quick release mounting etc etc.  He even makes the silencer from scratch!

quite a bit of fabrication there, was it expensive?

You would need to speak to Chris, as this was the first proper one he'd made - but he's now got all the jig's/templates etc to make some more.

Mine was slighty cheaper as he used it as a test car... he actually had my 90 for two weeks as I was on holiday.

I am well chuffed though  :D

I keep meaning to pop in on him, especially as he's just down the road.

From the looks of it he makes some nice kit . . . .

does the exhaust go thru the fuel tank then  :lol:  :lol:  or is that just a very square silencer

[Jimbo]

Ian,

Nice.

That looks like an X-Eng brake conversion you got there - pleased with it ?

Yes..... in theory... but then it is only soot and washes off easily.  On a standard, untweaked, LR the soot shouldn't be too bad.... get's worse when you 'adjust' the pump though.

Fuel tank on the other side   .... plus a tank that size wouldn't get me very far with my right foot    :D  :twisted:

Is a square silencer, an idea of Chris's... seems to work well, is different from anything else on the market, and results in a neat installation.

Well spotted.... yep.... very happy.  Fit and forget.
It's design means you have to use a pre 300Tdi type handbrake cable, which really means you need a pre 300Tdi handbrake lever too.  
You can use a 300Tdi or Td5 type lever, but I found it worked better with a pre 300Tdi one.

You need one of the lovely Devon 4x4 exhaust finishers
Go and have a look when your at Billing

Do you think Chris would like a Discovery to make a tester on?
Worth a try i thought
