Have you re-set the timing? When I changed mine it sounded the same! Then bis13 save the day with his light sabre and Came and fixed it!

Hi Skelz,

What exhaust are you running there? I need a new exhaust for my 126 :)

I'm about to go out and get new exhaust, camshaft and cylinders for my beast.

I had a look at yours and it's fairly inexpensive.. maybe you needed to go for a more expensive stainless steel one?

I was looking at one of those high efficiency road mufflers that looks like a bazooka. I'd be paying around $350 for one though!

I'm looking at that conical racing exhaust:

http://allegro.pl/breda-tlumik-fiat-126p-strumienica-wydechu-maluch-i1562657015.html

The translation is as follows:

  MICHAEL TUNING SYSTEM
one of the biggest and best producers of silencers.
High-performance muffler having no virtually no resistance
It is characterized by a very good job and flue gas exhaust from the engine.
Do not have a certificate

Sounds like a goer to me. I'm just querying 126fan.com on the performance of said exhaust. Apparently you need to alter the hot air pipe slightly as well. (Possibly bend it or flatten one side a little bit?)

I'd be very interested if anyone else has one of these exhausts. :)

 I had one of them, but I sold it.
 It is very loud and i didn't really like the sound of it. It is definitely not for road use unless you wear ear defenders+you need a special support bracket.
 This one isn't mine, but just to give you an idea.

Wow! Now that's an exhaust!

Perhaps I should go for the record monza replica?
