Just orderd an "Ashley" full system and K&N 57i filter for my Sierra DOHC
Are Ashley exhaust's any good?
Of course, what you really mean is 'it drowned out the death rattle from the CVH tappets' ;-)
Tosser.
Cancel your order!!! Ashley pipes are 100 % crap.
His whole tone sounds familiar. Are you going to ask him about his underpowered £12k RS200, or will I?
;-)
Do you not think that it might have been a good idea to ask *before* you bought them ?
They are popular in rallying because they do help with power and flow a little, sound a lot better, and cheap to replace when they do rot through (mild steel ones), and I believe even though they sound so much deeper, they pass the noise regs for motorsport events.
A bit late, now, heh.
They rot. They sound good on the Ka, but they rust away, so they need replacing . . . :(
Care to elaborate at all??

LOL !
Perhaps you should try READING this ng. The folks here do not favour "silly bolt on mods".
No more than the stock system though, and they're cheap enough to replace. Unless you're willing to stump up for a stainless system, it's not something you can avoid.
Hmmmm, I've always got a few years from full exhaust systems - longer than I keep my cars !
I was 17, skint and the exhaust on my 87 XR2 had rotted away. The cheapest replacment was the Ashley. From the moment it arrived I could tell that it was crap. I guess you get what you pay for but this really was nasty. As with all fords the 'knuckle' part of the pipe swang free where the clips were not tight enough even though it was refitted 3 times.
It lasted just short of 9 months before it went again. Avoid.
