Nathan54771 Posted March 18, 2015 Author Share Posted March 18, 2015 Just been and collected my new exhaust from TNT as I missed the delivery due to work, got it from JWR Racing on FiestaSTOC group buy. Excellent service and delivery, can't fault them. Can't wait to get it fitted now, it's sat in the box waiting.... Gone for the Cobra cat back 2.5" system non resonated with twin tail pipes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun71 Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Nice and shiney! I am looking at lowering my van but not sure which way to go with it? Don't want it to be too hard a ride as its my daily work van. Sent from my iPad using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted March 18, 2015 Author Share Posted March 18, 2015 Girlfriends dad has a garage so hoping to borrow the ramp some point this week. Yeh lowering springs are one of the next things on my list. Go for a subtle but noticeablely practical drop then Like 30mm ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun71 Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Cool, springs only, springs and shocks or coilovers? Been a while since I lowered a car lol. Think I got a G-Max kit before but not sure. Sent from my iPad using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted March 18, 2015 Author Share Posted March 18, 2015 Depends how low you want to go, If you want a practical low Id just save the money and buy some Eibach or H&R or mountune springs depending on what drop you want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun71 Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 25-30mm drop would do me, would standard shocks be alright with that sort of drop? Sent from my iPad using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted March 19, 2015 Author Share Posted March 19, 2015 Yeh standard shocks should be fine with that, I'm dropping mine on standard shocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathan54771 Posted March 19, 2015 Author Share Posted March 19, 2015 Doesn't matter, them springs should fit any model mk7/mk7.5 Im pretty sure. Double check though better safe than sorry :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil 87 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Looks great, if I could get something like that without affecting the warranty I'd be very tempted :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 Thanks and the only way you'll get a ford warranty approved exhaust is if mountune release it. If I'm honest though, why do you want a ford warranty friendly exhaust ? It's warrantied by cobra and is much better quality than the standard exhaust. It's highly unlikely to require you to need a visit to ford, it just allows gases to exit the engine hahaa. Each to there own I suppose, engine etc I can understand as its high cost and you want to keep warranty, but exhausts ? Next people will want warranty friendly wind deflectors and gel overlays. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil 87 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 If I'm honest though, why do you want a ford warranty friendly exhaust ? I'm assuming that fitting a third party exhaust could affect the Ford warranty in some way, maybe if you have engine problems they would try to say your warranty is void because you changed the exhaust. Correct me if I'm wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathan54771 Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 They'd only do that if the exhaust was found to be at fault :) which is highly unlikely for it to cause engine damage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's great, I thought Ford were much more strict with their warranty. If indeed it doesn't affect the warranty then an exhaust might be next on my list of mods (which is an empty list at the moment lol). How much does that Cobra exhaust cost and is it designed specifically for the ST? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 No not that I'm aware, if it ever happened just put the standard back on if you was that worried. I got the cobra on a group buy for £390 but it's usually around £490. Yes it comes ready built to be put straight on, so obviously been tested and designed before release. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
