Is this actually happening? have you contacted yoof
need a full system inc mani, single exit
how much are we looking at for the group buy?
thanks, taylor
if this doesnt work out, im just gonna go to longlife and get one made
-
Ye iv contacted yoof! Hes going to sort prices out for us. The more thats in the cheaper it will be. Il pm him again to remind him we want prices cheers
-
Thanks mate, before i shell out can anyone tell me what the fitments like?
Im worried it will stick down a bit and hit all the speed bumps
the one i have on now touches the gearstick box, havnt seen any pics of it on a car, and would like to see before a shell out £600 odd
-
Going out on a limb, it's the best fitment for an off the shelf system you can get, unless Haysey has fitted it, and then it's about the worse thing.
63mm is a fair old size of pipe to fit down a Polo tunnel, and the weight of stainless systems will stress rubbers more. The system/manifold has one sleeve joint at the manifold/system and one flange joint post mid section, so there's a small degree of freedom the exhaust can be tweaked.
We farted around with the manifolds for a long time, various different designs for clearance with different toothed belt kits, and the charger position with No.1 exhaust runner, ended up with something that's the most clearance possible, without impeding flow.
This was the first design:
(http://www.poloperformanceparts.co.uk/images/manifoldnew1.png)
Second design with greater clearance to Cyl 1 runner:
(http://www.poloperformanceparts.co.uk/images/gallery/Manifold4.jpg)
These are a single piece and both the exhaust and manifold have lambda bosses.
Cheers
Pete
-
They look gorgeous! Thanks for posting that, id personally prefer the second design to give more charger clearance
yeah thats what i found with mine 2.5" doesnt fit too well in the tunnel. You got any pictures of the amount of ground clearance as thats my biggest concern
thanks mate
-

screw you bloaty-head! Mine fits very nicely I'll have you know.
-
What do you recommend in the way of rubbers Yoof (ooh er) for the PPP system? I'm assuming you arent using the stock hangers anymore?
-
Thanks for that yoof. Any prices yet. The manifold looks stunin alot of craftsmanship gone into it!
-
Thats only 6 people, we should wait for 10 atleast for maximum discount :) otherwise i cant afford it lol
-
Didnt james want one? Or did he get a custom one?
-
Depends on if theres ten people as g40s havent got a massive following mate. Im not sure il pm him and see if he wants in pal good idea!
-
Thanks mate :)
well wait until yoof comes back with the prices im hoping it wont be much more than £600 as
im stretching at the moment lol
-
I am keen for both, if the price is right
-
I don' think we'll be waiting for 10 or it'll never happen. Anyone loaded and can buy a few lol?
-
Depending on numbers we may consider buying some for stock.
-
Depending on numbers we may consider buying some for stock.
well if all the people that have posted are serious we have 7
how many are you thinking of stocking? Tbh if i had the money id probably buy a few as people are always asking after ppp exhausts
-
i recon i would be interested in a manifold too! :)
-
I coudl strech to x2 manifolds and x2 systems. 2nd would be for sale for profit.
-
Im no good at maths but thats roughly £6260 (unless ive counted wrong) for all the mix of 4 branch / system / both for everyone thats interested at individual pricing, plus whatever ppp buys
surely that warrants big discount?
-
I would only go in if the manifold was a really good price.
What would price be Andy on the manifolds?
-
Just looked at the pics on your exhaust page on the forum - is there a flexi section in the exhaust?
-
I would be interested in taking a Manifold, again with the rest of them, if they come in at a good price!
Scotti.
-
Same here
Am quite interested in a Manifold only.
-
Just got back from Germany- Stu, there's no flexi in the exhaust no, no problems with this setup.
-
Any news on prices yoof? Theres alot more interest than i thought there would be
-
Yup, 2013 Manifold Prices:
3 to 5 - £470/ea
6 to 9 - £425/ea
10+ - £380/ea
Prices include VAT, but don't include delivery (£15-£20 for UK Mainland)
If the group buy can only get 5, PPP will buy stock to hit the next pricebreak (same goes if we get to 8 manifolds)
Cheers
Pete
-
Sounds pretty good :) what about complete systems and manifolds?
or am i better off getting just a manifold then get long life to make a custom exhaust?
thanks
-
Well i can pick mine up in person an collect anyones if there near south yorkshire to help people out saving on postage. Whats beat way of payin yoof? Pay ppp?
-
Still in...
-
im out off the country tommorow until the 17th, sorry to be a pain, but im in, i just cant send any payment or anything until i get back. Would really appreciate it if you guys couls hold fire, many thanks
taylor
-
Cool beans... are you still waiting on prices for the full systems? Whereabouts are you based? Also, do you have a rough idea on lead time, or is that TBC?
-

I would rather collect them, inspect them all, then send them out. If you want to save on postage I don't mind bringing it to a show- or you can meet me when I'm on my travels.
If people can add names to the list, I will get prices on exhaust systems too.

Would it be possible to get an extra lambda nut welded in?
-
I am still keen. However my G went bang the other day. And instead of pouring money into it, I am on holiday running from the Turkish riots and keeping my eyes open for any supercharged polos. So far nothing. I will be back on the 21st. If it was just the distributor cap and leads then my name is down. If its more serious I may be tempting fate.
-
Would it be possible to get an extra lambda nut welded in?
Like wise as I have an LC-1 was well as a Bosch for Digi
-
I can ask- there maybe an additional cost.
FYI if you run the full system you end up with two lambda bungs anyway ;)
-
Don't tempt me :D
My exhaust is ancient, I'd be lying if I said replacing it hadn't crossed my mind.
-
Do it Alex. Lovely bit of kit.
-
Yoof - how much for the whole lot?
As ancient as the Longlife is, it's not rotten so I may be able to claw back some cash if anyone's interested. Especially with the de-cat downpipe included.

3-4 weeks from point of order, although the supplier does have a contract with Radical I believe, so if they shout for systems they get done first!
They're usually spot on with timings though.
Will give the manifolds a few more days and then PM those involved and collect deposits. Will update exhaust prices when I ring tomorrow
Pete

Nice one thanks alot pete got money waitin anyway cheers

Swish!! A month is alot faster than i though, and yeah got money waiting too, though waiting another month would be cool :)

Whats paypal address yoof? An if paid through that is it ok as a gift? Just saves charges thats all cheers for your help gaz
-
Gaz- Paypal is same as the contact address.
However, it's a business Paypal, so I'm not 100% you can gift money.
Try it, worst that happens is I'll refund you if the correct amount doesn't come through.
Cheers
Pete

Go on then I will have a system. Unsure on manifold as well.
When do you need final decision made?
-
Paid £200 by Paypal to e-mail address for exhaust system only. £200 left to pay.
Will I get away with single silencer system as car is G40 for track use, or will it fail noise requirements? Does single silencer system give more power? Comments welcomed!
Thanks

Thanks for the prompt payment so far guys, I'll keep the list updated.
Pete (vwnut) E-Mailed you regarding Paypal fees :)
I will order these systems once all deposits received.
Many Thanks,

Sorry to be a pain but can i get a lambda and an extra bung welded for wideband sensor?
Thanks bud :)

Manifold has a boss in, as does the exhaust - so with a full system you have two. ;D

Just FYI- If you're supercharged I would strongly recommend a twin silenced system, the second silencer is only small, and the exhaust is obviously louder than stock, but with only a single silencer they're f'in loud!
Turbo is fine with single silencer, mine passes track days noise tests without problem. Supercharged and twin silencer will pass track day noise (Hayesey/Sam have you passed a 95dB day in the past with a 63mm exhaust + lader? )

thanks for that mate, im not sure though, ive got a twin silenced phil j system at the moment and it sounds kack, is more boy ricer than throaty tuned car, so was worried it would sound the same
are talking unbearable loud? Would i be likely to get pulled over by the po-po for being a yob?
are single exit out of the backbox like in the picture? As you did some dual exit ones, definitly dont want that lol
Thanks for your help sorting this, appreciate it :D

We only ever did single-exit Taylor. Twin silencer on a G40 'charger is still pretty throaty - am sure some G-lader owners will post up their thoughts!
Single-silencer is really pitched at turbo'd cars.

My mistake, sorry must have been thinking of something else
ok mate, ill take your word for it and go for the twin silenced system :)

Gents,
Hopefully you all have PM/E-mail replies with payment details and answers to any questions, I’ve been away this weekend- thanks to those who have paid already I will confirm and update the list tonight.
Regarding delivery/collection – I will collect addresses from you all in due course and get quotes, some areas of Scotland seem to attract higher premiums despite being non-highland (think we had this last time Mark?) All non-UK purchases I will do the same for.
Those who wish to collect, can do from myself- I live near Rubgy, Warwickshire. Week nights are far better than weekends for me, but I don’t mind bringing parts to shows (Retro Rides, VW Action, CG40 RWYB) that I’m attending.
Many Thanks
Pete
-
Thank god I've found some one who's got in touch with yoof! Lol.
could you put me down for one of the down pipe and systems please mate been sending emails left right and centre to find a decent exhaust system
-
Scrap that would it be alrite to get a full system for a g40 (d/pipe and cat back) and could I get a cat back system for just an ordinary 1.3 polo please if the group but thing is still going????
-
I'd like to change and go for a four branch and a twin silenced system if that's still ok?
If so could I have the bank transfer details please?
-
Same mate, forgot to change mine to twin silenced

I hope that's right mate?. So how do I pay for the stuff???
Wrong list - that's the one for people who have paid deposits. But that's fine - scroll back to page six and you'll find payment details. So if you pay a deposit, copy the list and add what you've paid for it'll all be good. 8)
-
Hahahaha sorry bout that mate will do that now :)
-
I've just read the info on page6 and I can only pay by cash cause my PayPal account has just gone a bender! How do I get around that? And would it be alrite if I can pick up the 2 systems and the Manifold just to make life easier cause I'm not far from PPP :)

Not to sound to stupid mate but how do I do that! :(

When will we have to get this in by to recieve it by august the 13th ish
-
Will update the payment list tonight, Mario you have both our BIC and IBAN in an e-mail :)
Taylor- Basically when everyone has paid, supplier has said there’s a 3-4 week lead time currently, and I then need to collect them, package, and courier to people, so add 1-2 weeks on that.
You can collect from me if it’s easier/quicker or I can bring a few systems/manifolds to VW Action at the end of August (I’m not bringing a car full though :D)
Cheers
Pete
-
Ok thanks for the that :) i can pick mine up as soon as you receive it as im getting desperate
basicly people need to pay now to be able to get it mid august
must only be waiting for a few peeps now
come on people :) pete and andy said 48 hour turn around, been like a week now!
thanks
-
Ill probly collect mine so anyone up yorkshire way i can collect theres aswell. Ano always a couple of late payers unfortunately. Cant be that many though
-
Mid Aug is 4 weeks away, I can't comment really, but I can't see them being ready if some peeps haven't paid as of today.
The thing with group buys is you get a good product at good price, but you have to be patient...

The thing with group buys is you get a good product at good price, but you have to be patient...
i completely understand and agree with what your saying
but the group buy did start in may
and i dont mind waiting for the product at all its just we are waiting for a few people to pay. i had the majority of the money ready to pay when i put my name down, or i wouldnt have put it down
im sorry to be impatient, but my G is currently off the road and once i get the gearbox back in i cant bolt the subframe or suspension up until i get the exhaust. and the tax on my currently daily runs out end of august, which is being scrapped so there is no point in re taxing and MOT ing it for a month, plus its been in a massive crash and is dangrous to drive
i also have a week off mid august so wanted to get it all done then ready for Edition 38 as my mate has just finished his MK1 golf project off after 4 years!! so am looking forward to going with him
my G is my daily
i know these are my problems but were waiting on like 2 people
thank Taylor

Taylor - they won't be ready for the 12th August even if the remaining payment are all made today.
Work on the assumption they're always 6 weeks from point of order (worst case for exhaust supplier and worst case for collection/courier) and org anise what you need to around that, hopefully you won't be disappointed then.
Cheers,
Pete
-
Have these people been pmd yoof?
If so its abut shoddy either not payin by now or saying they are no longer interested.

We now have 9 paid for the manifolds, and 10 for the systems. I am happy to purchase the remainder for stock to hit the price break on the manifolds.
ALL WHO HAVE NOT PAID - THIS CLOSES ON 21/07/13
So if money has not been received by then, you won't be included in this group buy. Got to put a cut off somewhere for the other people involved.
Thanks,
Peter

All being well I can collect at the earliest opportunity (7th September) and they will be available for collection from then onwards. Earliest I can get a courier is Friday 13th September for those who aren’t collecting.
Many Thanks,
Pete
P.S- Will keep you updated if any of this changes.
-
i have just sent the rest of the money sorry for the time delay
-
Whoop whoop like xmas com early :) you got a post code yoof for collecting? Just so a can see how far you are mate? Cheers for sortin this out!

I'm not far from Rugby, Warwickshire.

-
Yoof,

Yeah Sunday on your way home should be fine :)
-
What time will be ok to come up saturday? And is it possible to get a bolt to bung up the wideband hole as i wont be getting one for a while
Cheers guys
Taylor, could you make it Sunday morning or Sunday evening (I'm out midday)
I don't want to commit to Saturday encase of traffic, they're being collected from Cheshire, so 200 mile round trip for me in a van, which I'll have to drop off etc.
-
Sunday morning would be better if thats cool? Looks like sunday is gonna be one mental day to get it road worthy lol
-
What time would be good to come up on Sunday? I'll be coming with Taylor :)
-
Gents,
I contacted the supplier today who has informed me I cannot collect on Saturday. I'm fuming, van has been booked already (they won't all fit in my car) and they've had 7 weeks from point of order.
I'm awaiting an explanation from them, will keep you updated, I can only apologize for the delay at the moment, I'm aware some of you as desperate for these parts.
Cheers
Pete
-
Dag nabbit
not your fault mate. thanks for updating :)
-
Thanks for letting us know. I'll keep my eyes peeled for updates.
-
Any news on this yet, Pete?
-
I've been told they're being driven down to me on the 16th (9 days late) which talking to the supplier is the best I can do.
I'm in regular contact now so will keep you updated.
Cheers
Pete
-
Ok cool, thats a monday? I might come up late if thats ok with you? And stu? And if they arnt delayed
If i can fit them in the back ill be picking jezza's and dub disasters up too, he just doesnt know it yet :P
-
Awesome, thanks :)
-
Hey yoof any news on these? They still gunna be with you next week? Just need to sort cover out to pick up as im on call out all week thats all cheers
-
Hi Gaz- Yes, I am expecting delivery on Monday 16th around 3pm.
I am also on holiday from Wednesday 18th, which is crap as it leaves you guys 2 evenings to collect parts before I leave. All postal order will have to go our upon my return into the country - ideally sent out on 27th September.
Kind of gone to shit this group buy, which isn't ideal for anyone.
If those collecting can let me know via PM if they are available Monday 16th or Tuesday 17th after 5pm I can send my address and contact details to you.
Cheers
Pete
-
Thanks Pete! Sent you a pm
Cheers for sorting all this :)
Yeah just a tad lol, i think in future i want be relying on group buys to make my car road worthy haha
-
No worries mate, PM back with you.
Yup group buys are a pain in the arse, we've been sat on 10 subframes since June as a French group buy were so slow in paying!
Ho hum, I hope the exhausts are all the same quality as previous items, and they've not been rushed.
Cheers for being patient gents.
Pete
-
Since june! Dayum! Can imagine the suppliers getting pissed off too!
Yeah i did think that the other day when they got delayed. Will they all be rushed in 1 week. Well we shall see
-
Hi pete can you pm me your address so that me n my brother can pop over tonite to pick up are systems and the manifold please :)
-
Does anyone know what's going on about these exhausts and manifolds? Cause I've pm pete with no reply yet?
-
PM back with you mate :)
-
Nice meeting you again pete cheers for taking time out to sort out collection!
Just got home bloody lorry on fire on m1 always sumert on tht motorway
Gaz
-
Just got back after a dodgy kebab on the way home, thanks for sorting me out, and i really appreciate the bung :D was gonna fit the manifold tonight but i dont think my neighbors would be too happy with making loads of noise at 1 in the morning!!
would have been good to chat for longer and look over the polo to get some inspiration and ideas, good to meet you pal
see ya soon :)
Taylor
-
No worries gents- Lambda bungs will be getting posted out separately when I'm back from holiday.
Gaz- PM with you
Cheers
Pete
-

Thats like an inch more ground clearance than my other one, the fitment is like a glove!!! so happy with it, gives about half an inch more charger clearance so it should soak up as much heat
the thing is like a work of art!!

Courier (dependant on location) is 3-5 days, you will be able to track progress online.
Many Thanks,
Peter

Hi Pete, car is running and exhaust fitted, I'm so happy with it, sounds dam awesome!! Couldn't ask for a more perfect sound
However there's a few niggles, I don't want to sound like a moaner, but where the system is flared to fit over the 4 branch is not long enough.
The whole exhaust needs to go forward as it pulls the rubber backwards on the middle mount. And puts the rear out leaving just mm or it touches the fuel tank and vibrates against it,. If the flared bit was say and inch more flared the exhaust could slot over the 4 branch further and. The system would fit perfect. I will get some photos mate
Other than that it's perfect, sounds awesome, doesn't resonate or drone, just sounds raspy and crisp, love it mate, top job
-
Can you not cut the manifold back a little to compensate?

You can cut £1000 of exhaust if you fancy
-
Sorta common sense... if rear setcion slides over manifold and sits too far back it may be long enough to allow you to trim a little off...
No need for the sarcy-ness
-
Sorry mate
but I was kinda hoping I wouldnt have to modify it for the price it cost
Cutting it could work, But id be worried I might mess it up
-
Might invest in one of those fancy exhaust cutters with the sharp rollers for a nice cut, and not an airsaw lol

Don't bother - they are crap - I have one and turned out to be utter shit.
-
Get some piks up taylor. Al be doin mine in next few week
-
Measure twice, cut once! Lol.
Know what you mean though. If id forked out that kinda money id be pretty pissed.
I dont see an issue with removing a little material off the manifold, would allow you to slide the rear section further forward to where you want it. Just measure how far out it is and make sure the manifold is long enough to allow it to slide a bit further back
-
Get us a picture if you can Taylor, if the whole engine moved forward by 10mm would this solve your problem?
I.e - You might have enough movement on the standard engine mounts without cutting anything.
E-mail the pics to me and I can compare them to the original car (Robin's old red G40), although the jigs haven't changed since the first system. If you can take some measurements (I'll reply with which ones) I can check against our last batch of systems too (one fitted to Andy's car).
Glad it sounds well (and you went with the twin silencer ;) ) Fitment issue won't be hard to sort.
Cheers
Pete
-
Haha, yeah, I'm glad I listened to you on that lol
Everyone has commented on how awesome it sounds :D
That's an idea! Though it probably wants to go a good 3/4 inch forward, but 10mm will make a fair bit of difference, will check if I can get much movement on the engine mounts :)
Sure, will get some pics at lunch :)
Thanks mate :)
Yeah I'm not too worried to be honest as its so dam awesome, just the knocking against the tank at idle
Even the tip is lush, just looks so nice!
-
All- PM now with everyone containing tracking information and final amount for courier. All exhausts/manifolds are fully insured and will be delivered by UPS, should be with you all by 15th October.
Many Thanks,
Peter

hi,all is here,seems very good,but no rubbers or gasket, rubbers i can get but gasket?where can i get one,or what material it must be copper or?
-
Check in the packaging - should be in a jiffy bag, wrapped in cardboard, taped up.
Unless the package was damaged and it's fallen out, although I've used enough shrink wrap and parcel tape... ;D
-
hi,found gasket but no rubbers,have now from bosal for g40,have fitted everyting but when i wanted to screw the arb back on in hits the arb on the left pipe of manifold ?still have Original silent blocks(the rubber ones)would it clear if i fit the hard arb blocks?
-
Is the car lowered? Sometimes manifolds hit as the cars lowered on standard arb brackets. Ppp i think can supply arb blocks to sort this
-
I've fitted mine now. It looks and sounds great - I'm very happy :D The only thing I had a problem with was hanging the rear section from the new rubbers, so I've had to retain my knackered old ones for the time being. I just can't get the new rubbers to stretch enough to reach the hangers on the back box. Is there some kind of technique to getting the back ones on?
-
Soak them in hot water before helps a lot
-
Cool, I'll give that a try next weekend :) Thanks!
-
Right guys I need a manifold by say February next year as my car is booked into AAS... I missed the bandwagon unfortunately.
We need a minimum of 3 people for them to produce more 4-2-1 manifolds.
Is anyone interested?
:Matty
oh god! never again!!
-
Taylor hahah you make me laugh!

Probly means how long it took an some people paying pete. Big group buys are always a pain. On the other hand the system look too nice to fit be better on a mantle piece or in a art gallery!
-
Mines not fitted yet, cant decide where to place it in the house. Girlfriend moaned it was in the bedroom so now its in the garage surrounded by mood lighting
-
Hahaj ive got mine fitted along with the system an its a nice snug fit :)

Aye true, although they're a pain, it's often the only way people can afford items, or get the order quantities high enough so manufacturers will produce the parts. A necessary evil :)
-
Yeah sorry man, thats all i meant was how long it took for people to pay
but yeah your right, it was the only way i could have afforded it, so well worth the wait :D
-
Cant beleive i was dumb enough not to order the manifold aswell. Had the system on a week and it's blowing again cos of the bodged up adapter I had to make.
Mega facepalm
-
