Fitted up some new extractors finally, they look pretty awsome, the car is alot better to drive now its alot smoother and the exhaust note over my old extractors is uncomparable, the paccies just sound wicked. The car feels stronger through the entire rev range now preety happy.

heres a better pic, thats about 2hours off rubbin, i got angry cos i could'nt the finish i want, but now i have a proper buff with woolen mitt, so when i do the seal on the cover soon, i willl polish it a again properly and clear it with extractor paint or something so it doesnt tarnish off as much.
Just a interesting fact also, when i got the headers installed, the guy that did it used to play with 4ltrs alot, he did back to back testing on extractor pipes and brands on his Ed xr6 which was cammed up, Pacemaker were the best by far he said! The JMM race series extractor gainned him 2rwkw yep believe it or not he said there was no difference at all. , that was back to back dyno runs etc. Just a fact for you peoples ;) |

my old extractors were Hi tech headers which were great to aa point, biggest problem i had outlets on the head were 41mm and those pipes were 35mm so there was turbulence inside being created. The paccies are 41mm, now my car is revving so much harder and goes alot better, next time we go for a cruise i'll let ya know and we'll meet up.. im in lara where about r you?

Good to get the right extractors now ... would have been a hell of a restriction before.
Rocker cover has come up the goods ... it's amazing how much of a transformation cleaning it up/painting/powdercoating it does.
