Yep, Powerstation did one of each exhaust and one overlayed so you can see exactly where the benefits are

Well thats quite impressive. Any chance of overlaying the two dyno charts to compare throughout the entire rev range?

Just got the rolling road results in for the EWOK 

Standard non-cat exhaust: 210bhp, 175lbf.ft torque
Supersprint Race system: 218bhp, 176lbf.ft torque

More info on the results including driving impressions plus a big feature comparing both these exhuasts with the Milltek system (a power shootout) will be in issue 67

Just got to try the Milltek next week.

Thanks to Powerstation.org.uk (Tewkesbury) for their help and advice

Have a word with Adrian H. I is having his own Grp A Manifold being built and has also had his own exhaust made. His motor though is putting out 320 hp. 2.5 spec, built by himself.

I've used H&S before on a previous car to good effect and I know of others that have done the same. Guess the S14 is just a massively different kettle of fish!

We've also got something else very interesting and exclusive being completed at the beginning of next month (exhaust wise) so watch this space

We're fitting a Supersprint race system to the Ewok on Thursday and getting a before and after rolling road readout, so I'll let you know just how much power we lose  

More info and pics etc will be in the mag of course

 

Atleast you are not fitting the Heyward and Scott system as I thought you were going to do. Judging by the one which was fitted to my car, then removed and hurled over the hedge, you have gone a better route

I look forward to reading your articals on EWOK.

i must say that i have had no problems whatsoever with my scorpion stw system. ok it is a little loud but i can live with it. the eisenmann/supersprint combo on my 328 sport is actually worse for noise!

defo had a power gain since i fitted it. its now been on there for 18 months without fault. fitted perfect aswell without any fouling (unlike the mega money eisenmann on the sport!).

i would consider changing it for something else as long as there was actual proof that it sapped power. dyno plots anyone?

cheers

Thats right. In and out in an hour. They dont use stainless as the cost would go up. I dont have any pics at the moment. will try and get some. When I took it to Bexley;s they were quite impressed by doing it that way. Think they kept the cross over part too(?)

I've used Pipecraft a lot they will make any custom pipe, just take the car to Basildon (big on American car exhausts) very good and cheap.
Oops i went and got an E36 !

Buy an EISENMANN back box and you know what expensive means.
