Lada Niva - 2.0 TC Conversion
Posted: September 28th, 2010, 1:34 pm
Hello Guy,
My garage project moves along slowly, the engine is rebuilt using the parts from yourself, and remains headless/sumpless for the time being while I organise engine mount fabrication, a modified sump, and replacement exhaust components.
I have acquired a very gifted future son in law , who is happy to fabricate me a stainless exhaust system. The stock manifold will be retained, the engine is also stock using the Weber twin choke and air cleaner.
The car is a road registered, stripped out , two seat Lada Niva. Primarily used as an off road RTV trialler, to embarass other 4x4 owners, toy and hauler of garden waste to the tip. So noise is something I am fairly used to, having no carpets/sound deadening etc.
What diamter of exhaust pipe would you recomend for road use ? I would like a "fruitier" sound from it, without a deafening thrum ....
Kind Regards
Ivan
