[Mk2] [Turbo] Mongoose too short! Are Berk exhausts longer?

Post by cosmo »

I've had a Do-Luck kit fitted but the Mongoose exhaust is too short :shock:

Is the Berk exhaust any longer? Anyone know? I may go for one if it is.

This is what it looks like at the mo...

just go to any exhaust place and get them to cut the ends off the exhaust and weld in an extension. bingo, problem solved for a lot less money than a new exhaust.

The Berk tips extend out further than the Mongoose tips.
The Berk also doesn't give me headaches like my Mongoose did.

In the pic below, you can see how far fwd the exhaust hangers are mounted on the Mongoose vs. the Berk

That pic really helps. :thumleft: Basically that's what I'm after, the tips need to extend out further and the slash cut will help as well. :D

So quess I'll be heading over to GTSChris's site....anyone after a Mongoose exhaust? \:D/

There are a few vids comparing exhausts, the Berk sounds a little more civilised at idle but picks up nicely when revved. :twisted:

Well, the Berk is on. Can't believe how heavy it is compared to the Mongoose. :shock:

The rear looks much better now. :D
