Hi guys - was hoping for some help in regards to specifications on an uprated exhaust system for the 130tc. Im basically looking for something a tad 'angrier' with a little crackle/pop sympathetic to the character of the vehicle. Prefer low end grunt to top-end power. Its a weekend car, road-use only. The only modification likely will be either a K&N filter or gauze carb filters at some point.
I know nothing about exhausts but have a fabrication expert who can do any custom work for me. I would LOVE an actual Abarth exhaust just for posterity.
Sooo, looking on abarth-exhausts.com, they have the following;
An Abarth (not Fiat) SS manifold available, pictured, with 40mm OD pipes and a 48mm outlet pipe (to the middle silencer). If this is simply a SS replica of the existing manifold, I may as well stick with the existing manifold?
A universal end silencer (Abarth, pictured), non resonated. Probably a 70's period muffler.
My thoughts were to remove the middle silencer.
Any advise much appreciated. If anyone can spot a more appropriate end-silencer on that site for me that would be great. Getting a bit paranoid looking over at the GC blog and predictions of engine doom for too much back pressure etc if i get it wrong ! Cheers!
