How hard is it to fit a motorbike exhaust end can to a Nova 1.2i?, and would the engine run ok with one on?
Cheers Jono.
yes it will fit, either make a flange to bolt it to or cut the system off the bike and weld it to your system
Chris
was considerin this myself, would there be many benafits from it?
you mean something similer to this?

Cheers guys, Yer i like the look of the cans in that pic, but i was thinking of just having one coming out straight in place of original backbox.
Anyone no the legality of the end cans?
Cheers Jono.

looks shit/stupid to me
a nice 3" rolled tip looks far nicer and would probably sound better too
i really don't see the point in doing it. Get a car exhaust for a car, and a bike one for a bike.
Its all personal preference at the end of the day.
The system on mine encorporates a bike syle backbox, which has a 3" tip, and sounds awesome, not stupid loud, just the right amount of volume.
Its whether or not you want to stand out from the crowd a bit more I suppose!

i too think it looks crap.
but that's my own opinion, and fair play for doing it.
looks s**t/stupid to me

I got to agree with aragorn.
A proper car system would be a lot better.
But if you want one then just join it up to your car exhaust.

Its not as far as you think mate, I'm jus happy it doesn't come out at a s**tty angle :D
i personally think the ultimate exhuat, is just one 3" pipe on each side of the bumper. I think it looks really good.
like EPo's car (but loosing the wierd tips)

Yeah fair play for doing the bike exhaust thing. They can either look really good or really pants. Good luck!
My friends dad has a trike with a ducati exhaust! Its powered by a vw engine though! lol. That looks pants as you got a big Ducati badge!
