I'm sure with a grinder, welder and four bits of pipe you could knock one up from a standard exhaust....

Tiff I have one of those exhausts as per your link that funnily enough I was going to be putting up for sale soon - its made by CSC and very well made, far better than the crappy Ansa ones that start to fall apart the moment you put them on the car...

1977 Serie speciale in green original spec
1977 Serie speciale in blue modified

I pulled a old rotten Ansa apart with a view to copying it and found it was of pants construction.
Very poor with little or no construction around flow design.
two of the four tail pipes where just dummies welded on and the other two where really restrictive

1980 green with Lancia Delta Turbo engine

I like the CSC exhaust but it only has one outlet. Do they do a version with twin pipes or is it a cut and weld job?

I ideally want the one that had 2 pipes coming out from the left hand side, (i think the 4 pipe ones are very cheesey)- i had one of these before, years ago, and it sounded excellent. yeh they are a bit fragile in construction - they are italian afterall!. Flow wise?, well with the tubular manifold it has to be better than standard. Im more after the look and sound to be honest! :lol:

The CSC manifold has a fundamental design flaw - the 4 into 1 bit traps water/condensation and rots out. It's impossible to weld without dismantling and re-assembling. I think I've still got one that needs welding if anyone wants to try....

I liked the Janspeed too, sounded nice- weird setup though where it went out into the wheelarch. Would love to get one to copy.
