fitting my new blueflame

[Scotty_b]

Still no down pipe tho

 

[gazjones]

the listing is hi flow cat and cat back system thats it there

 

[Tallpaul]

i'm a spaz. what i'd read had said dp AND cat. but milltek only make the CAT

Milltek do make a race cat that'll fit the APR dp if that's any consolation

 

[Scotty_b]

Im happy with my BF system, its a good bit of kit for £500 but seeing as i paid £1800 all in i will never be happy!

 

[grey_uk]

£1800 for what?

 

[Scotty_b]

For My Blue flame £500 exhaust system! Dont ask just dont buy cheap cr4p in the fisrt place!

 

[wild willy]

not with a tight 90 angle on it - that's k04

the k03x one is more of a straight down

must be a newish addition though

Could very well be a KO4-01 which i believe is 4 stud.
Tis confusing as the ko4 -02 range is 3 stud.

 

[RickC]

no codes at all

[Scotty_b]

oh i thought u said urs was red!


but yea i can picture you, we spoke at jabba and at bruntingthorpe!


i remember you saying your mrs drives the LCR so you didnt want to make it too fast or make it too low/with loud exhaust etc etc

 

[stew]

yeah thats me,not holding back on performance mods,car is daily driver which the girlfriend uses thats why i dont wont it too low,i know looks miles better lower but i dont wont her to rip splitter of every week,nice talking to your james,im sure i will see you at jabba or pod in the spring. or on here.cheers stewart.

 

[J@mes]

its not the splitter you have to worry about, its the plastic underbody/sump cover thingy which scrapes all the time!

Well, after reading everybody’s views about Blueflame exhaust I’ve just had mine fitted today, fit was pretty good, needed a tweak here and there and took about 3 hrs to fit (down pipe pain in the ass ), now it looks fantastic and the sound is awesome when you put your foot down and nice a subtle when driving normally. After fitting we then put the car on the rolling road and now I have 291.7 bhp (246 at the wheel) and over 320 ft-lb of torque.

I would recommend the Blueflame exhaust every time, yes, the quality is not as good as the Milltek but how often do people see the welds under the car?

 

[J@mes]

good results! where was it at?!

 

[grey_uk]

It was re-mapped by Ray at west tuning, thruxton.

 

[grey_uk]

He did have some problems stopping the wheels from spinning and had to tie it down in about 6 places.
