AS above, looks like a bike silencer with a custom maifold ahead of it. By the looks of that cam cover, it is bolted to a Fiat twin cam. Good choice

Yep, good eye ! its a Fiat twin cam engine on a car I missed out on, hence Im building my own although not with a Fiat engine...
I think Ive managed to identify it myself now, its an SBD one, with a ridiculous price tag (circa £500) not sure I'll be having one now
then...
Just realised thats plus VAT...
so phoned DAX, they want £475 plus VAT for theirs aswell ! !
Thanks

There's a nice polished s/steel version like that available from Builders Solutions (?) for £170. It's available in 5 or 7 inch diameter.

Hello
Yeah, Ive seen that one, its 6" wide it looks pretty good, but the exit and inlet look fairly narrow Im quite particular how I want it, I want
it as big and free flowing as possible to give the turbo plenty of breathing space, preferably 2.5" - 3" with the big 7" silencer,
it all goes with the butch proportions of the Rush aswell.
Thanks
James

That sounds more like it, I will have a look...more like the figure I had in mind aswell.
Thanks

Ive got a 5inch car builders solution ss silence and it is good, the tail end on the 6 ich which is a 2.5 inch system lookes a bit iffy on the ones
ive seen. They may have just been a bad batch tho. Ive seen the sbd exhaust, very nice, but at a price!!

Might be worth trying Mk Engineering if you fancy a stainless system - he'll even build them on the car to ensure a perfect fit and the prices
are good as well
Cheers

Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the
error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

RPI Engineering near Norwich can bend and fabricate Stainless Exhausts / Pipes, It's mainly a Rover V8 place, but Chris Crane is a good bloke,
and well thought of in the Land Rover scene.

Thanks for all the response guys !
I think I may have found someone to replic...I mean fabricate me one Im just waiting on a price, but an example Ive seen looks almost
identical :thumbs:
I can get the bends and straight bits fabricated and welded by a friend, as I am doing, because I need a custom downpipe on the back of the turbo.
Its all the unknown internals : baffles packing etc that are inside an exhuast that means I cant get that done by him aswell, so I needed a place that
makes custom silencers/boxes aswell as the other exhaust pipework.
Anyway, thanks to all that offered suggestions !
