Stainless Exhaust for RRC

(1/2) > >>

Muck:
I managed to damage the mid section on my exhaust offroading a few months back. (I think it was on its last legs and one knock and it cracked through!!)

I am now pondering whether to splash out on a stainless system. Anyone out there done this and got any recommendations. Rimmer bros quoted £465 for a a full Sports system but someone else offered £300 for a custom made system while I wait.

I have seen a few rangie with the exhaust coming out through the rear wing to raise the final section away from any off road damage.

Let me kow if you have an SS exhaust fitted and where you got it, did you fit it yourself and does it do anything for performance?

Thanks for any advice.

i've got a standard size rimmers stainless system on one rangie (3.5), they do sound different but i dont think it makes much odds on performance.

on my 4.6 i have the big bore rimmers sports system which sounds fabulous and certainly seems to help the engine breathe.

if you decide to go that route i have another big bore system (complete from manifolds to tailpipe) sat in the garage...drop me an email if you're interested.

I have the standard Rimmer S/S exhaust that I took off one I broke for spares, in the history there was a reciept dating it as 10 years old :roll:  and it still solid if a little discoloured in places,
Sounds a little better but dont notice performance but I still running on standrd cast manifolds  :cry:

Muck:
Double S Exhausts have quoted me £499 for a sports system and £310 for a regular system in stainless including vat and delivery.

Range Rover Blues:
If you are spnding the cash it would be nice to fit the sports sytem with headers.  I went that route for reliability as the LSE would destroy manifold gaskets every time I hooked up a trailer (though I suspect thew cats were blocked) and now it's fine.

Sounds nicer too, keep a look out on flea bay as both mine were S/H

One thing though, the LSE system has snapped all the original mounts off, SS is brittle.  Keep an eye on them.
