daniel smith Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 The exhaust on my hpc 2.0 Car is very heavy. Does anyone know if there is any reason why I should not modify a carbon motorbike can/silencer to fit my car. Is there any downsides? Does anyone know if I can get Yoko 032 (for 8" 5 spoke wheels) in size 215 x 60 x 13 or 205 x 60 x 13 which safely fit the 8" rear wheels.

Luke Beaumont Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 With an HPC I guess you don't have to worry about a cat, so the only consideration with a bike can is whether it can silence enough. If it can, go for it! 205/60 is a common size rear for sevens, there is a 215 but it's 50 profile. See here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJF Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 I think you'll struggle to find any A032's now... The bike can thing is really about how loud you want your exhaust. I have a Westfield Megablade and am ditching the bike silencer to put a Raceline whopper on there. It'll weigh more and cost me a fortune but it's the only way to get efficient silencing. The Honda/Yamaha OE systems are very restrictive - which is why all the bikers fit race cans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniel smith Posted April 25, 2005 Author Share Posted April 25, 2005 Thanks for info. Any other recommendations as to a sticky road tyre with 60ish profile( for gearing) which will fit a 8x13" rears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambo Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 apparantley 032's are back, they fit 8.5 or 8" rears in 205 60 13 section. My hpc has an SBD titanium can with is a lot lighter then the standard trum one, although modifications were required to collector as it is a2.75" bore, sounds good, gives about 98dB9 recorded at combe. , so depends how load you can go.
