MG Zero exhausts

[ViT]

Hi all! I'm looking for a recommended quality exhaust backbox for my 190. Unfortunately, i can't for the love of money find an XPower back box. So I started doing research and it looks as though Zero exhausts are highly thought of among the 260 fold.

What are you guys opinions on them? Worth the money?

Hi,

Xpower exhausts are a bit hard to find, so a lot of us have as you say gone down the route of getting Zero's.

I personally got Zero's made and prefer them to the Xpowers. The build quality is certainly better. Kevin, who is Zero exhausts, runs a 190 tourer himself, which has dual exhausts on it, so he very familiar with the possibilities on a 190. I certainly tricked me into thinking it was a V8 when I first saw his car!

I think they are well worth the money, they are like pieces of jewellery hanging off the back of your car. Don't know what a 190 box would cost, as in theory you need half as many as us.

As Chris says gives the V6 a better note. Got a set on my 75 V6 tourer.

Got the Zeros on my 260 and would highly recommend them.

Very well made, lovely sound,look good and will almost certainly last longer than the car

Thank you very much for your posts! Would any of you find gentlemen with a V6 happen to have it recorded? I'm a little frightened of it going too loud and sounding yob-ish, that said a V engine can sound nothing but musical :)

Its not yobish but its defiantly not Rover either. If I get the chance I'll try and record something at the weekend.

I will need some replacement exhaust sections replaced (hopefully, just the back boxes). Can you let me have contact details of the manufacturer of the Zero's.

I have a questionnaire to complete but have never been given instructions where to send it. I don't use Micro$oft software.
Send it to Tim at mg.zt260@ntlworld.com
Most alternative office software will read (and write) Word files. I don't use Microsoft either, but I've never had any trouble...
Trouble is that my software is circa 1995/6, so the filters are not able to read Word 6 onwards. That, though, is not the main problem. My e-mail is set to only except text attatchments. As Word is not anywhere near pure text the system normally gives it the Jonny Wilkinson treatment.
cheers,
KevI assume you have never sorted this out Kev, I am sure if you email Tim he will be able to provide you with another copy in .pdf format or something else suitable such as .rtf or even plain text. And then,when you go GREEN you will be able to view the link AndyG has just posted and won't be restricted to the Public Section.

Yeah, I think I have a plain text version sitting on my system at home. Just need to locate it, find Tim's email address and then attatch it to a covering e-mail to Tim. At the moment it is just one of 750 items on the system awaiting attention. After sorting outstanding list by seriousness of content, do my maximum of 10 per day for 5 days, should get around to it in few more years.

5 minute job Kev. Meanwhile you are typing up posts asking members for information which they are always more than happy to provide, when you could be accessing it yourself......:)
