Bit late to this thread but thought I would mention it anyway...! We're fitting a Supersprint race system to the Ewok on Thursday and getting a before and after rolling road readout, so I'll let you know just how much power we lose More info and pics etc will be in the mag of course

Atleast you are not fitting the Heyward and Scott system as I thought you were going to do. Judging by the one which was fitted to my car, then removed and hurled over the hedge, you have gone a better route I look forward to reading your articals on EWOK. |

I've used H&S before on a previous car to good effect and I know of others that have done the same. Guess the S14 is just a massively different kettle of fish! We've also got something else very interesting and exclusive being completed at the beginning of next month (exhaust wise) so watch this space |

Have a word with Adrian H. I is having his own Grp A Manifold being built and has also had his own exhaust made. His motor though is putting out 320 hp. 2.5 spec, built by himself. |

Just got the rolling road results in for the EWOK Standard non-cat exhaust: 210bhp, 175lbf.ft torque More info on the results including driving impressions plus a big feature comparing both these exhuasts with the Milltek system (a power shootout) will be in issue 67 Just got to try the Milltek next week. Thanks to Powerstation.org.uk (Tewkesbury) for their help and advice |

Well thats quite impressive. Any chance of overlaying the two dyno charts to compare throughout the entire rev range?

Yep, Powerstation did one of each exhaust and one overlayed so you can see exactly where the benefits are

nick, I run a supersprint mild steel centre and race back box + carbon airbox and Alpha N, and I am very happy so far, setup on the road with WB so no dyno charts, so post your print out.

Hi Toby, Things have changed over the last couple of weeks and due to a new business venture, my car and engine may be going up for sale . There is another thread running on this http://www.bmwcarclubforum.co.uk/forum_posts.asp?TID=27649&a mp;PN=1 Obviously I don't want to do this but I may be forced to do so to help fund the new venture.

Carbon airbox should sound quite nice coupled with this system! Where's those lucky lottery numbers! |

Yep I can concur that the noise is amazing, as Simon so eleqoently put it
And it actually makes a bit of power - hopefully it will benefit further mods. I loved driving the Ewok before. Now I think I am in love with the Ewok |
