Hi All []
Today I went up to Richard Armstrong at Ritech http://www.ritech-systems.com/928/_X__Pipes/_x__pipes.html
I already have an RMB fitted so was expecting LOUD !!!
Richard fitted the X-Pipes and they were VERY well made as you can see in attached picture (Stainless Steel) and extremely good welding....
Then we started the engine....WOWWWWWWWWWW
AMAZING SOUND.....not quite ARMEGEDDON but a VERY NICE SOUND ....bit too loud for a track day but I was expecting that []
Then I DROVE BACK.....WHAT an experience....I have never seen so many people look in their rear view mirrors to see what just snarled up behind them [][][]
In built up areas ...it just echoes back from the buildings lol....lovely noise...
If you drive it gently its not much louder than normal UNTIL you push down on the loud pedal...then it SOUNDS AMAZING...people turn their heads from about 400 yards
Estimate of extra power.....hmmmm...not dynoed yet so have to guess...from seat of pants feel....around 5 to 15 hp and maybe 5 torque [8D]
Cost = £295 + vat for the pipes plus 1 to 2 hours Labour if you want Richard to fit them .
Your old box is removed and you can keep it for if you sell the car and want to keep the X-pipes for another 928.
The new pipes also have a hole for the Lambda sensor (blanked off with a bolt for a non cat car like my S2)
All the best Brett []
