Hello again.

The quads were brought to me this morning!
As mentioned before, it's made by a German manufacturer FOX. The vehicle regulations are very strict here in Finland, and I didn't want to mess with the authorities, so I ended up with FOX. It was one of the very few exhausts that I could find with TÜV papers.

As usual, my flat headed friend was there to help me with the ripping off the package. Actually, I didn't have to do much at all...

The delivery:


I barely got it opened and only I could hear was: "I'm getting in!"


"Get that camera #!&#! and help these things out of here!"


"Empty!"


Eric checking the TÜV approval:


Eric's not the most trusted person with sharp tools, but I let him cut the wrappings anyway .


"Now take a good shot!"


Next comes painting the tips. More about that later...

Very amusing pics as always

The tips look different on each side -- what's going on there?

That's because they are constantly transforming Autobot exhaust tips! They'll never settle!

Oh, I think the sound will remain quite the same.
A month or so ago I had to remove the diesel particle filter that locates in the exhaust right after the engine+exhaust manifold+turbo, and the sound was almost the same even that the rest of the exhaust was removed!
