Quad Exhaust: Sussex?

Does anyone know in Sussex where I can get a quad exhaust fitted to my Z'd?

I've looked about and only really found Mstyle in Romford that do the complete job, but they are shocking to get any answers or photos it's a nightmare! So Mstyle won't be getting my cash!

I've looked at 100's of past posts and not seen any fitters in my area :(

Any help will be appreciated :thumbsup:

Regards

Terry
 
Where there's a will...... No need to move or mod batt box but it's not strictly the full monte!!

I'm sure this is £1200 and a touch more than I really wanna spend! I have aero skirts to get sprayed too, they have been in my loft long enough :lol:

EDIT:

Just looked I think its only £534! Just need it fitted and bumper mod done!
 
Apart from more noise and more weight these quad conversion jobs are purely cosmetic aren't they?

I mean they don't actually give any increase in power?
 
Many that have done the back box delete in Bristol! have been quoted £350 for the delete and quad exhaust, this also includes cutting the bumper, so book a travel lodge and get up to bristol!

Probably, theoretically it would be possible to improve the airflow by changing the backbox, but you're also adding weight (most likely).
 
Thank you all for your input!

I'm not bothered about power gains or a minor weight increase! My Z'd is plenty fast enough for what I need and the mod is only for visual/acoustic reasons only....

Also don't want it to sound like a corsa or cilo!!

I'll check out some places and make a few phone calls. So know one has actually tried the schmiedmann unit?

I would be surprised if an aftermarket quad is heavier... The oem backbox is super heavy! My quad is definitely lighter.

That why I was asking, I just assumed a double system must be a fair bit heavier than the single but apparently not!
 
Yep, it's surprising how heavy the OEM box is.

Once gutted though, it's much lighter. Add on the quad pipe, and I reckon it's still lighter or at worse back where you started.

You're never going to get much performance gains from just a backbox. Maybe a couple of 3 legged horses and a burble. :D
 
After i got my exhaust done it felt a bit more free flowing and responsive.... and was done from a proper place - same as Ranski, mac and a couple of other.... they had some pretty exotica in the garage - a nice 458 with a custom exhaust they were building... so i presume they know their stuff....

However i had my car dyno'd soon after i got it (the car would have been just over a year old).. and a few months after i got my exhaust... (so the car was say 4 years) and guess what.. marginal change with slight less power :lol:

Recon it was them disconnecting the battery when fitting it - which gave it a throttle reset which made it seem faster after :roll:

The improved flow of gases should mean a smoother engine, get a k&n filter or/and air scoop to so she breaths in and out better, dont worry about any extra weight, ur talking about a few extra pounds.
Dont get the ///M rear bumper due to your aero front as the car will look "confused" ( thats what another dumb arse member said to me on here :lol: ) just cut the extra hole and try for a diffuser of some kind as i know your doing this ipon a budget.
Just ensure you get the right sound, a drone in the cabin could drive you too killing :evil:

Not getting an ///M bumper...... :thumbsup: My intention is to cut my bumper! :thumbsup:

I'ts been manic today @ work and not had time to look for exhausts! Going to have a ring around saturday :D

I'm thinking, looking at the photos the tips poke out a little too much but looks like they can be altered via the allen band or maybe I can fit an alternative tip! 8)

Liking the rear..... :rofl:
