2Bular

Post by Northernpar » Thu Nov 13, 2008 9:19 pm

Big thumbs up to Jim at 2Bular :thumbsup

Placed the order for the 8"x22" silencer for the Exige only to have it delivered approximately 1 week later. It's all shiny and wrapped up in the kitchen at the mo so should get round to fitting at the weekend, all being well. I'm planning on taking a video/sound recording of the before and after and posting links.

I waited about 5 weeks. Lucky you. Quality bit of kit though!!!

Regards fitting.... I had probs getting the bottom of the car off for access and ended up rounding some of the heads of the allen screws. Took it to my mates garage and they managed to remove them and fit the exhaust for me. Said the exhaust was a bit of a job to come off as well!! Not that i want to put you off....

Good luck! You'll love it when fitted. :thumbsup

P.S read somewhere (on here i think) that if you do round the heads on the allen screws you can force the right size torx bit in with a hammer and get them out that way.

When I contacted him I was expecting a lengthy wait based on some of the forum postings. What he did tell me is that he has been building up a stock of silencers of different sizes which only need the final few parts welding on (tip selection etc) so I was a bit surprised when he said a couple of weeks and even more surprised when he gave me a call about a week later to say it was ready. Certainly not complaining though!!

Guys, many thanks for your orders and much-appreciated support. I have some help on the production side now, so I do have the most popular 2bular systems in stock -for a change!
Sound clips would be great - really need these for the site.
Shoomer - is that you Denis? Left a voice-mail for you - sorry.

Thanks again.

It's got to cope with a lot of pops and bangs :thumbsup

Well, managed to get the 2Bular fitted. Took around an hour with no issues with any of the fixings although I will be investing in a stainless steel fixing kit from Eliseparts in the not too distant future. Took a before and after video/sound clip but they didn't turn out great so you'll just have to take my word for it.

Sounds great! not too loud when pottering but a great roar when accelerating and a few pops and so forth on the overrun. The best £500 I've spent for a while (well except the £43k plus on the original motor) :thumbsup
