Great build! I like your style of trying to keep the interior looking stock. The controller mount is awesome!

[Fatandre]

I kind of like what you have done. Should think of wider lips for the Breytons
Better than spacers

Wait for it, I'm gonna upload some pics

[Earl]

I love how you mounted the controller=)

And now the car looks like this again



and like this too



Took off the breytons to paint the faces. I realized by mounting back the stock wheels that I wasn't at the lowest until now because of the rear wheels resting on the inner part of the fenders because of offsets being too high. So good now I'm gonna be able to lower it even more





Tried to move the car aired out but bolts on the exhaust touch the ground actually



So I cut them





also washed the car



btw, I think it's low

[OCKlasse]

Wow! Très bien!

Hey guys, I want to make a custom exhaust for this little V8 but I'm confused on something. I'm gonna use two Magnaflow rear mufflers and delete the one after the cats. Most of the custom ones I see use an X pipe but I don't know if I must do it this way or if it can be done with just 2 pipes (one for the left and one for the right side)

Do you guys know the difference between the two techniques? should the gas communique at some point after the cats?

Here are 2 pics to show what I'm talking about:

with an X-pipe



without X-pipe

Was actually just researching that for one of my projects and this is the best thing I found that could help on the X-Pipe vs No Crossover.

The reason for the H or X pipe is to increase the effectiveness of scavenging. Every time a cylinder fires and the exhaust exits the combustion chamber, there is a pulse of gas flowing through the exhaust system. Every thing you can do to help the pulse of gas exit will increase performance. The gas will flow better if it can maintain a high velocity and have smooth bends. A really neat trick to help the gas out is to leverage the low pressure (not really a vacuum but close) just after one of the other cylinders has fired to “scavenge” the exhaust out of the cylinder. If you can get very effective scavenging and depending on the cam your running, you can “pull” the fresh air/fuel mixture into the cylinder.

thank you, I'm gonna do it with an X-pipe. Ordered the 2 magnaflow mufflers

This is lovely. The mount for the autopilot controller is crafty, i like that.

Wheels

Putting appart the Breytons to paint the faces





removing the crappy join









I turned 30 and an awesome friend came with 2 lips for my Breytons as a present they are 3.5" wide. So I'm gonna use the 3" I have on the front and those for the rear. It will be a reversed mount so the width of the Wheels will stay the same but lower offsets

Here they are, just what I needed for the car





New rear tires, 265/35. Ordered 225/40 for the front



I then cleaned lips and barrels. Faces are at the paint shop, they gonna be satin Silver grey 354.



Before/after. I'll repolish them again





Barrels are done too. I'll paint them in mat black





Lips waiting to be assembled as soon as the faces are painted
