Alfa Romeo GTV 1.8 TS

[Nasa 9]

Wow, it's been quite some time since I've posted here  

 

Had some work done to my baby in the last couple of months!

 

To start with, I replaced the front tires because the previous ones were in bad shape . I have Federal 595 SS tires in the front now. In addition to that I've had the car aligned. The rear shocks are changed and I replaced the Novitec springs with APEX springs. The starter is fixed (had some problems with it) and I fitted a new thermostat aswell. I'm probably forgetting a few things too..  

 

The biggest upgrade is without a doubt my new exhaust system! I've got a custom made exhaustline fitted that starts at the cat, all the way back to the endpipes. Only two mufflers remain now. The sound is amazing! Comfortable under 3000 RPM and real agressive above! The complete line is made out of stainless steel, so I won't have to worry about any rust or anything. 

 

As you can see, it was necessary! I've hit a bump in the road a while back with that muffler and it started to rust and disintegrate.

 

 

 

This was during the fitting:

 

 

Final result:

Those tailpipes look great!

Are the mufflers lined up after one another in the "tunnel" with a straight section between them?

Nope, the second little muffler isn't straight behind the first one. Between the first and second there's a little bend to the left, where the second muffler starts. If you enlarge the fitting picture you can see both mufflers

What is the diameter of the pipes used from the cat?

I'd really wanna know since my exhaust is 2.5" all the way and slightly uncivilized...

I have absolutely no idea mate. Mine sounds pretty raw above 3000 RPM too, but it's still comfortable enough to drive normally. 

 

Also I could use some advice... I have the possibility to buy a silver cup spoiler, but can't really make up my mind if I like it or not without a cup-kit (rims, fenders, skirts, front lip and such). What do you guys think? Should I go for it?

Leave it. Your car looks clean as it is

Good upgrade  ! From where are the tailpipes? The bumper look nicely modified (cut) also, as original  .
