Hey john, good to see you here, Iam still dreaming/sceeming of ways to get the engine, too bad you don't live on the other corner of the country. Remember to post reply when or if you sell the engie, just so I dont keep on thinking about it. Anyways good luck with the sale. Darren:(

[oval55]

Do you have more info or pictures of the exhaust system? I wonder how it sits under the rear apron? Just wondering, thanks again, Darren

The bottom pic is not part of that setup

[oval55]

How does all thatfit under the rear apron, or does it> Any pictures on the car, Type 1? Darren

[jhelgesen]

Darren, fit all under the apron, the exhaust exits the stock location.

Hey thanks for the pictures, looks great. Yujade, are you running this system, how is it to install and maintain (leaks), how do they sound? Thanks Darren

[jhelgesen]

I've got a question, since I haven't installed the exhaust yet. The joint that is just tack welded on the header, on the 1-2 side, what do you do with it? Leave it tacked, weld it up, clamp it?

Thanks

[vujade]

I dont have this system yet.. i will be running it when I convert to type 4 early next year.....

I have spoken with Jake about this system, he says it is second only to the Tangerine system.

He is going to be starting the Type 4 exhaust system shootout soon, so we will soon see the results & how it compares to other systems.

vujade,
Are there any companies that import the Bas system or will I have to have it shipped from Germany, cause I'm looking into that system for my Type IV 2.0L also?

Ordering from Germany isn't that bad a deal. You convert to USD and take off 17%, we don't have to pay the VAT. With shipping, I got mine in about 3 weeks. I bought the steel version of the header and the muffler system for about $525.

[SuperRSi]

BAS was great to deal with. I ordered by fax a Cup exhaust. They faxed some questions, got a credit card and shipped it out. In a couple weeks I had to pay the post office an additional $35.00 for customs duty and drove it to the shop. It was expertly packed and as nice as I could ever ask for. Now if I could only get the car ready...

I highly recommend BAS. I was as thrilled by BAS as I was pissed off by MBT and that is saying alot.

Thanks,
Randy

SOLD!

[Steps]

Congratulations on selling it man, but just a quick question? Why did you sell it in the first place? I am looking into having RAT build me an engine and I guess I'd like to hear why you off loaded it, thanks.

Charlie

[jhelgesen]

Hey Charlie,

Nothing wrong with the motor, just put a few too many $$ on the visa to pay for it. I'll build another when I can pay cash.

[Steps]

Morning,

Right on man, I was begining to doubt my choice. Nothing wrong with over extending your card then making it all right again by off loading the equipment. I apprecaite you letting me in on the deal.

Seems to me, and not trying to turn this into a 'kiss Jake and company's butt' thread, but those bunch of mugs down Georgia way have worked out the wrinkles and if I am gonna plunk down a handsome ransome, I want an engine that functions flawlessly. And I can dig it about paying for it with cash, own it out right and cash has never done a fella wrong.

Good rapping with ya,

Charlie

hello guy's,

I use the BAS exaust diameter 42mm on my 54 GL with a 1971cc type 4 this exaust is not bad, but not the best. It's exellent for perfomance , that's the good point, but i'm very desapointed on the quality (not the 4/2/1 collector even it it rust too, but the rest) it get's rusty fast (mostly the 2 mufflers) the sound is not extra and the mufflers are big and under the fender with rims about 7,5 inch large , you need to work on the mufflers because it touch the tires . If you want to use that system jump on the steel model is 35% more exepensive, but you wont regret it. or if you have more $$ to spend jump on the Big BAS model, that's a beauty . (It's not that I dont like this model, it's just a personal experience...) and if you dont want any problem when it's installed ont the engine, just weld with 2 or 3 points the differents parts of it because it does not stay long in place..

david,

thanks for the info. i am looking at the BAS header as well as some others. i am looking at going mild steel, but will have it ceramic coated to pretect from rust. not sure which muffler system i will fab for it though.

question for you, are you able to use the stock filter location with the BAS header or did you have to relocate it in order to get it on and off?

[Richie]

Hope you don't mind that I'm answering this one. The BAS system Elroocky is talking about can't be used with the original fillertube (I believe you mean filler instead of filter?) as I have experienced. You have to modify it so it sits closer to the block, or buy the special fillertube from them.
As for the mufflers BAS uses. They are far too restrictive for the heavy breathing engines most of you here are using. BAS uses a universal muffler that can also be found on Volvo's I think. They use these because of the stringent noise-laws in Germany. The mufflers I would use are the headermufflers you guys in the USA can get at almost every parts-shop. Mufflers like these can stand a lot of heat and they have nice big pipe-diameters and are available in stainless steel as well! And for the noise? I have used Hooker headermufflers once and do they sound good? You bet, not too hard but with a nice growl! And I found a few extra HP's there as well!

Cheers,

Richard

thanks for the info richie. i am speaking of the filter though. the header looked like it wraps kind of close to the filter area and i wasn't sure if you can get to the filter to replace it at oil change time. i went ahead and bought a relocation kit for it anyway though.

[Richie]

Sorry, I'll try to read better next time. Anyway, with this exhaust you'll have no trouble with the oilfilter. There is even a little bit more room to change the filter than with the original exhaust.

Cheers,
Richard

Cool!!
