motad exhaust fitting

[MikeM]

fitting this motad until I find last part of my 4 into 4

Instructions on this don't match up with headers I have



instructions fit Q1M5H to port 1, there is no header pipe with that marking , all the pipes are marked M54-1S up to M54-4S

anyone came up against this before, thought it would be a simple job to fit these

tried fitting 1 and 3 first and then silencer but the last pipe is and inch out, no 2 cylinder the one you use the bolt to nip up the pipe with does not reach

Thanks

just fit 1s-4s left to right. The end of the pipes should all be the same length. Fit the silencer last.

[MikeM]

I have tried it 2 ways fitting 1-4 headers and then the silence........  also 1 and 3 as in their instructions then silencer and then pipes 2 and 4, pipe 2 seems to come up short ? by a good inch ?

I've seen this on the US site. Get in touch with Motad.

[MikeM]

I have ... just awaiting a reply

when I had a motad I fitted all the downpipes first, then whacked the silencer on with a stout piece of wood.

[MikeM]

thought about that... not sure how deep the pipes go in but when there all fitted at silencer end they are all different lengths

maybe that's what it needs mate a good whack to get the silencer on

  I know where bitsa is coming from but originals are not only expensive but hard to get, I have 3 out of the 4 originals

I know dave silvers are now doing 4 into 4 but there still repros and no reviews as of yet

so motad, yes not a great fit but whats the alternative ?

800 plus vat for  repro set or wait a few years to get originals ( if they turn up )

4 kids here and a mortage and hours cut to 24...... priorities have kicked in

Mike , did you get the photo's and PM?
