Title: Exhaust woes!
Post by: HockeyDave55 on 07 September 2011, 18:20:31

Hello, me again...
I bought a very reasonably priced stainless exhaust from the fabulous eBay and got it fitted to the car yesterday...
OMG! There is no way I can drive it!!!
LOUD is not the word... Have a look at this thread...
http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1297366229/45
The tail pipe is one thing but it's just too loud!
In my haste I binned the old pipes so...
Can anybody tell me the dimensions of the standard box in front of the rear axle?
Thanks....

Assuming you  mean the OE oval box, what sizes are you after, box only, box with tailpipes (F/L or MFL) or overall length from pipe tips both ends. Do you need the height & width of the box as well. So many choices/permutations ;D :D
