Great to hear that you are still enjoying the system.
Clamps aren't a problem bud.
Again am happy to get this moving if members are interested.

Sorry to ask more questions Nigel.

I'm a bit confused, is the system an all new development or a hybrid of the BlueFlame?

If it's the latter what parts are modded BlueFlame?

Sorry again it's just the review, as good as it is, is confusing me.

No disrespect please don't take that the wrong way.

h4rdy:
What I am trying to say/ask is........is it made from scratch or does it incorporate elements of BlueFlame parts?

Hi There
No problem.
Essentially the new systems on offer are built from scratch by BCS Automotive.
We have re designed the downpipe - which now incorporates a different turbo elbow which enables the the pipe to run straight through the engine tunnel and no longer requires the heat shield to be bent out of the way.
The front silencer is also larger and makes for better overall tone.
In addition all of the components are designed to interchange with the new power valve system due out in November. (fully integrated exhaust gas flow control valve - within a 3.00" system, a first for the MK5)
The basic principal of the system remains from when I first designed the system back in 2005 when I owned Blue Flame - ie full 76mm TBE with all of the silencing done in advance of the rear wheels to maximise gas speed through the system.
Please feel free to call me for a more detailed appraisal.
Cheers
Nige

Thanks Nige thats exactly what I wanted.

Also I noticed that the downpipe support in the review is different to the picture on your website?

Is the review pre production and the website final?

And has there been any issues with the 100cell CAT passing emissions on the MOT?

I will be interested to see the Power Valve system, where does it get its signal to operate from? Can it be manually over ridden? Would it need to be?

Thanks again.
