Hey,

A scooby owner i know(well sort of know) has offered me a brand new,(still in packaging) prodrive back box for £150. The guy says it will fit my sport. Will it??????

Cheers

what age of car is it for i.e classic or bugeye???.

if it is for a bugeye then the mounting brackets will be wrong and will need some adjustment.

am pretty positive that you should have no issues if it is for a classic

[sharon_mccall]

Ruby is classic, 98 R Sport.

Is it a good buy then & will it make much of a differnce?

Cheers

i meant what age of car was the exhaust bought for????

it is not the noisiest of exhausts, i had one on my old UK300 which stayed on it for all of one day.................depends what you want at the end of the day.

personally i like noise and the prodrive one was just tooo quiet for me

Is the pRODrive exhausted from a newage or a ClaSSic.

If it's from a classic,it will fit on .

You could maybe get one cheaper from somewhere else like China

I think Alan G is still selling one

[sharon_mccall]

The Prodrive silencer has a two bolt flange at the end of it and pipe is 2.5" diameter.

All you need to check is the flange/pipe size on your Sport exhaust. It's also worthwhile checking if the pipe lengths are the same i.e. where the end of the mid section finishes under the car, just in case the Sport exhaust mid section is shorter or longer than a turbo version. (Unlikely but you never know)

Having said all that, it wouldn't cost much to have the Prodrive silencer converted to suit your exhaust system

On my own car i'm using an Sti silencer which was converted for me to suit the exhaust on my 2.5 (3"system)

Cheers

Alan,

That avatar picture of your car looks amazing - totally show worthy - have you ever "showed" the car. It looks as good in the flesh as in the magazines.

Never had the car at a show Brian.

Tha last time i "showed" a car was back in.. ahem!! '88 and '89!! with a.. ahem!! V8 powered Capri with X pack arches and a Garfield bum in the grille!! LOL

That was in the SECC and at Ingleston.

You should see the photo of me when the car was featured in Fast Ford in 1990!! Ohh..my...gaawwdd!!!

Ahh.. them were the days....
