a little update...before & after

[morgan]

Thanks giys, excited to get it done. I had a great opportunity present itself the other day, so i went for it. The exhaust will be conpleted in the spring, with a custon stainless header to start it off. Have a Martelius Group A type on its way. Need to make a few minor adjustments to it prior to mounting, but its going to be phenominal! Even has a proper diameter outlet to mate up to the Brave cbe

beautiful weather out this weekend finally so, out with this full OBX stuff...

---------------
getting ready for filter relocation and some gauging

---------------
its a nice view from under here...

---------------
...here too. that O2 flange needs to go though

---------------
but this is a problem. how to fix it??? (notice the steering shaft)

---------------
with this as a spacer, simple.
sv3 power exhaust flange

---------------
yes!!!

after this test fitment I took the manifold back out. chopped off that O2 flange to mount it lower. also chopped off the outlet flange to stretch it so theres no test pipe needed. contemplating the way im going to tackle the outlet flange. now it has a quick transition from 2" to 58mm to mate to the Brave, so I might expand the pipe I weld on in between so its not such a drastic change.

Man, looks clean!

It all looks great @morgan.

progress since the last post. received the spacer/flange and it fits perfect. extended the outlet flange to the CBE, flared the outlet to mate to the CBE, moved the O2 flange/port to the merge pipe, ported the manifold openings to match the spacer/flange, closed up the hole from the old O2 location. threw it all in a box and dropped it off at the coaters last week. should have it back shortly.

What's the purpose of the spacer on your exhaust ports?

[morgan]

If you scroll up near the top, youll see a pic where, w out the spacer, the manifold contacts the rack input shaft

[c4ptiv3]

Ah, I forgot, it's been awhile since I saw the beginning. I thought it was some kind of performance enhancer.

[morgan]

nope, just for clearance issues.
