ok i would really like to know if i have to get rid of the back grills if i want to fit the orbisoud back box ..and if any body has it on his Vee ..is it worth its money ???

 

[TRW1]

You can keep the grills.
The only people with this fitted that I know of have got the full system which makes quite a difference.
Fitting this to a standard renault manifold/cats/pipes will not show any gains other than a terrific sound.
If it's behind the grills you can't even see it!!

thank you very much TRW 1 ..and what about the k-tech full system is it any good ??..cus what i would like is to keep my car as stock looking as possible .. with the essential breathing kit's on ..

Can you get a combination from K-tec - Orisboud exhaust with K-tec manifolds full system (janspeed?).

Would they be compatible?

 

[TRW1]

No They're not compatible I'm afraid.
No part of the KTec (Janspeed) system links to the standard Renault system or Orbisoud backbox.

i would like to know if any of u did some major weight reduction on his V6 ..and if he could inlighten us with those steps ..

 

[TRW1]

Seats weigh a lot, replace them with lightweight ones. Remove engine covers and soundproofing, remove airconditioning, remove airbags, change backbox to smaller aftermarket job. You can be really extreme and strip the interior as V6Max had done.
It depends how far you want to go but I'd start with the seats as lightweight ones will probably make the biggest single saving.

lets talk a little more about the hood .. if changed wouldint i need coils to balance the car to its neutral balance again ?!

 

[TRW1]

By hood I assume you mean bonnet. Changing it saves some weight but not enough to have any effect on handling, they just don't weigh enough.
Coils are an improvement with or without weightloss if they allow you to optimise compression/rebound and camber.

u assume right ..and thank you very much you have been of great help..
