Csc 4 tail exhaust was created by cameron
Just a word of warning I tried to fit one of these today and they don't line up with the exhaust bracket coming off the gearbox housing, it is about an inch out. Also it looks like I will have to butcher the valance because of the tailpipes. Great looking exhaust but I will have to get the down pipe adjusted by a stainless steel exhaust specialist local to me. I will post if successful with pictures.

I had the same problem.... word of warning too.. it's very loud as there is no proper baffling or wadding inside. I cut the end off each and and fitted some silencer wadding as it was so louad I had to wear ear plugs when driving it any distance.
Anyone who attended the club meeting in North Norfolk will confirm it scared od ladies and children when driving past.
I would seriously recommend doing the mod if you want to drive any distance in some audible comfort!
I will post a pic up tonight of the internals but its basically the downpipe from the exhaust manifold into the silencer can, then a baffle with some holes in it and then straight out of the 4 exhaust pipes!

Oh, I bought the exhaust on looks and not performance so I am bit concerned with it now. Was it difficult getting the silencer material in and did it considerably lower the noise?. I should have given this exhaust more thought because a while ago I had a gran finale with a janspeed exhaust and that started to get on my nerves after a while.

The silencing wadding does work and the performance from this exhaust is good. Basically I had to cut the ends off the silencer can. Put the wadding in and then re-weld the ends of the silencer up again.
You can do the cutting and stuffing bit easily enough. Depends how skilled you are with a welder to get the ends back on or you could take it somewhere to get it re-welded.
It was ok to drive it short distances but it had my ears ringing after a few miles especially if the roof was off. the only other alternative would be to cut a flap in the silencer and re-wled it. i will try and upload some pics tonight.

Cut the ends off (hacksaw or grinder) stuff it with wadding and the then get someone to re-weld it if you dont have a welder...
worked for me and still goes well.
