X Power back boxes

[T16]

Am I also right in thinking the Xpower logo was just a sticker?

I've had a look on the Janspeed web site, and the don't list any parts for the ZT range what so ever.......

It was Janspeed.

Just been on the phone to them.

They told me there was never a jig made up, and that dealers used to drive the cars in and get the backboxes custom fitted each time.

What you were told is blatantly untrue! They were sold through dealers all bubble wrapped up with MG part no's, but were sold out long ago.

I have tried contacting Janspeed before now about producing a run of them, but got no response.

If anyone else fancies having a go though....

Now that I'm the proud owner of a pair, no gloating obviously, I've had a chance to have a good look, gyno style mirror up the tubes style

Obviously without pulling them apart its hard to say but they don't look the most complicated beast, rather a lot of emptyness in truth. Surely any decent fabricator could do a straight 'copy'?

Isn't it when people start with 'I'd like Xpower noise but with Zero quality + twins + x + y' that it gets complicated?

Or am I missing something?

I've also looked inside and other than the last 7inches its a straight through pipe, and with the added 7inch pipe they are effectively straight through, don't know if there is any material inside the hollow of the exhaust but the x powers are very light, in comparison to the zero's

spoke to Kevin at zero yesterday. The hooligan in me wants to remove the perforated resonance reducing mod from the zeros, but was discouraged. He said I would gain little noise benefit but get the nasty resonance so Im not going to bother. He mentioned the x power style boxes he is going to have a go at, and his plans are to build a perforated tube inside to tune out resonance. A very nice chap to speak to, and his products are top quality

Be interesting to see how this pans out. The quality of the Zeros certainly appeals and as much as I like the look of quads, I really like the twin ovals.

SMC certainly didn't drive my car to Janspeed for the XPowers that are fitted to mine!
