Vintage speed zorsts rock 8) the noise from mine puts a smile on my face every time I start it :mrgreen:
Did you use exhaust sealer on the gaskets ? I needed to as they were blowing a bit.

Yes i used Gasket seal on the exhaust clamps, I bolted everything together loosely first, particularly as the offside clamp is close to the engine bar. Sounds good and more importantly improves performance marginally and pulls better slightly, its all the little things that make the difference. Next I am going to fit this week (when it arrives) a performance manifold which should smooth out the flow AKA David Vizard and later on will be some high lift rockers.
Just have to say well worth doing and the quality of the exhaust is fantastic.

Looks good, Adey 8)
You say you put gasket sealer on the exhaust clamps... I'm being thick, which bits are these?
I ask because my 'zorst is blowing so this might be a quick fix I can implement too!

Gvee, which exhaust you got?
Exhaust sealer is like a putty you put on the gaskets before tightening down. It hardens when it dries and stops any leaks. Comes in a tube.

Beetle twin pipes at the moment
If blowing from the gaskets then it may help. Will not fix a hole in the pipe though

Almost certain it is gaskets. Might whip it off on Friday when I'm down the garage and have a looksee
