Good day

Thank you

stock branch
50mm free flow
Flowtech is the best place to get it done

flowtech ftw! lol or if you want I got my 50mm free flow for sale

Branch might help for smoother power delivery but I dont think it is going to increase the power.

[Thiren]

if you going to be installing a cam and uni q you might as well get the branch done one time.

was thinking of a 57 mm exhaust but on a 1.4i how would that turn out , also heard alot about different types of branches from different places that fit them some are cheaper than others the salesmen say that some are bent or pressed differently to give better exhaust gas flow at the bends or curves , can anyone shed some light on this as i am confused because powerflow in town has the branch called brospeed for about 1700 alone and another powerflow has the complete branch and exhaust for about 2500 but the guy says he builds his own branches that is why he is so affordable

@ thiren still waiting to hear ur new exhaust bro

thank you

[RIAZ]

just to add to the above viper exhausts gave me a quote of around R5600 for the branch and exhaust why is this so much compared to some other outlets

[Thiren]

57mm is too big for your 1.4i bro,a bra of mine has 50 into 57 on his 1.4i but then again he has a cam and a uni q. If you not going to be doing other mods just put a 50mm zorst. Swing by anytime after work bro i will give you a demo. It sounds wicked

[Thiren]

if you are putting a branch, put 4 into 2 into 1.

[RIAZ]

cool , yeah i check the video on the flowtech facebook page saw ur cab there

[Solo786]

the 1.4i stock exh mani is 4-2-1 and the size is just fine... you'd actually be surprised at how efficient it is already..
Just go see bradley at flowtech, tell him Solo sent you.

50mm free flow - nice system, and extra ching in your pocket.

from the comments seems like flowtech is really awesome . but you guys got any comments and experiences with piper racing or primaforce my other options

[Solo786]

You can check the rants/raves section for primaforce

Unsure about piper racing

During all my research with exhaust systems and all the custom exhausts that I have built ive seen a couple of results that are so far from the expected results its unreal. We have seen a massive power gain on a 1.4i motor with a set of custom branches that had primaries so big that most people wouldnt even put it on a modified 16v.

For a stock 1.4i I would keep the stock cast mani and do a downpipe section and a 50mm all the way.

We did a 57mm on a serious ABF with dice throttles and a Francois Louw head and it made 252Nm. Its the most torque ever made at dynotech with a 2l motor on 95 octane.

50mm is perfect for a 1.4i

[RIAZ]

to all the guys that went to flowtech to get their exhausts done, do they fit a resonator to eliminate the drone or must i ask them to fit one , and heard that the citirox has a oxygen sensor by the cat will they remove that when fitting the freeflow anyone had a citirox and has some experience with this

thank you

[chucker02]

Thry should not remove the sensor as that will create problems. On a normal citi they do not fit a resonator

[RIAZ]

will they already know this or must i ask them for the two and for my car do i have to have a resonator

[chucker02]

They will probably know not to remove the sensor, but go speak to them and ask exactly how they go about when doing a freeflow on a citi. But in my opinion you are overthinking this

[RIAZ]

i know i am over thinking it , lol i just like to know everything that goes into this install and dont want to have any negative effects

good day noob to the forum pls excuse.

own a citi golf 2005. fitted a 2.1l 8v with 45mm throttles. got other mods on the motor u name it. 4-1 branch and 57mm exhaust. been driving her for 5 years no issues wAs just wondering if I could fit 50mm exhaust as I really really like the sound it gives.

a buddy got it on his 1.6I velo with a 276 cam it really gets my hart jumping when I hear him drive. I've heard and read that's not advisable for cars makin more than 129 kw.

advice pls
