Side Exsit Exhaust

Steven:
Hi all,
I heard in on a conversation, a Land Rover specialist said to a customer that he doesn't recomend this mod, but I didn't here why?! Would any of you lot know what this could be by any chance?  :?

Its just that we would like this mod done...


Thanks in advance,

Was talking to Devon 4x4 about the very same today, so Tim and Jake are the people to ask.  I like the idea personally and I'm going to be soaking the rear pipe on the TD5 in brine to get it to rust more quickly...

Might show up on your NANOCOM too :lol:

Only reasons I can think of is:
1. Non standard item not easily replaced.
2. Main dealers will use it to try & wriggle out of any warranty.

I was at Devon 4x4 a couple of weeks ago & there disco looks nice with it's side exit exhaust....the external finisher is the business too  8)

thermidorthelobster:
Oh, one thing they DID say is that on the Disco, the exhaust moves a LOT through heat expansion.  So if you have the exhaust attached to the panel itself, then you'll stretch the panel as soon as the exhaust heats up.

D44 use an elongated circle (ie an ellipse) around the hole in the panel now, so as the exhaust pipe starts to wander, it has somewhere to go without wrecking the panel.

Steven:
Ok thank you all!

Thanks again.
