Exhaust Manifold and Front Pipe

The Manifold and front pipe is common to both models. The flange of the front pipe (cylinder head mounting) is manufactured from mild steel, while the four primary tracks are of stainless steel. They all join a load supporting decoupler. From the decoupler the exhaust continues in a single pipe to the metallic starter catalyst and the ceramic catalyst. The outer casing of the catalyst is manufactured from stainless steel. From the catalyst a short section of pipe meets the mounting flange that is joined to the center pipe by a two point mounting.

To meet emission legislation an additional oxygen sensor is fitted downstream of the catalyst.
