Title: Transit Owners
Post by: geefree on November 01, 2010, 09:25:21 pm
looking at replacing my front exhaust pipe, (down pipe),

Had a quick look online for a rough quote, but cant find any pipe for my van ..2006.

Hope it aint a full front and middle i have to buy,

Think is , it blows air on the joint between the front and the middle, with clamps...

so i am sure  i should be able to get the front only,

Any advice welcome please  ;)

Perhaps an exhaust outlet would be place to start

Look on transit forum , they are all putting stainles straight through pipes on , removing the cat ,and blanking the egr valve, this saves fuel and makes them more reliable. I did it , well worth it.
