Author	Subject: Pug Centre to Scorpion Backbox fitting
honestly3k Seasoned Pro Location: Berkhamsted Registered: 06 Apr 2009 Posts: 2,390 Status: Offline	Post #1 Just in the midst of fitting a Scorpion backbox to standard pug centre pipe. Just wondering if i should be using exhaust paste where the pipes meet or if the exhaust clamp is ok on its own? Cheers ________________________________________ ''Oh, it does handle like a golf!''

There wasnt one in the previous setup either (that is just a plastic gasket thing isnt it?) Firegum=exhaust paste? Does it matter if i just use the clamp as thats all i have? with a tube of exhaust paste too. Cheers ________________________________________ ''Oh, it does handle like a golf!''

Guna drop in a local garage now and see if they can seal it. Lovely looking back box though. And quite subtle from what ive heard so far ________________________________________ ''Oh, it does handle like a golf!'' Why drive a Golf....when you can drive a GTi-6?
