  • Scorpion Unleash New BMW E92 E35 Rear Silencer

    Exhaust maestros Scorpion have released their latest rear box onto the market – and it’s bound to be popular; The new BMW 335i.

    After a considerable amount of road and dyno testing, the new back box is available as a direct bolt-on replacement to the OEM part. Whilst the fit and finish are certainly as the factory intended, power gains are most certainly not! – with consistent improvements of between 5 and 10% being recorded during Scorpions extensive testing regime.

    Each unit is precision fabricated at Scorpion’s UK factory from aerospace quality T304 Stainless Steel. Carrying a lifetime guarantee. The sound is far more sonorous than the standard item, with a nice growl when pressing on, but keeping a subtle note for comfortable cruising.

    Usefully, this box will fit all Coupe, Touring and Convertible models with either petrol or diesel power, providing more grunt, more growl – and more grins. Priced at just £495, it’s the first essential modification for any 335.

  • Scorpion Release New Mitsubishi Evo X Decat Downpipe – X-traction

    Adding to their already superb cat-back range, exhaust maestros Scorpion have released the missing part of the puzzle for all Mitsubishi Evo X owners. A fully de-catted turbo down-pipe!

    This beautifully made part is fabricated here in the UK by Scorpion’s own technicians. Constructed from aerospace grade T304 Stainless Steel, the down-pipe bolts directly onto the back of the turbocharger to offer a dramatic reduction in constriction over the factory part. After extensive dyno testing, gains of between 25 and 30 bhp were consistently recorded on both UK and Jap-spec cars.

    The ‘open mouthed’ neck offers maximum gas-flow, whilst the large 3” bore ensures that spent gasses continue their rapid egress from the engine. As you would expect from a such a prolific OEM manufacturer, the down pipe includes a stainless steel flexi-joint to allow engine movement under load, a thick 10mm flange to avoid distortion at the joint, plus factory lambda positioning for ultimate performance.

    As well as fitting Scorpion’s own system, this new pipe can also be interchanged with OEM parts, allowing owners to upgrade their system gradually, to spread the cost.

    Priced at £449.00 including VAT – and complete with a lifetime warranty, this is one easy way to get maximum extraction for your X!

  • Scorpion Exhaust for the Mazda RX8

    Hard to believe, but Mazda’s superb RX8 is now 5 years old, making it the perfect base for accessible tuning. Good to hear then, that respected exhaust manufacturers Scorpion have released a high performance rear system for the rev-happy rotary.

    Bolting directly to the factory centre pipe, the Scorpion system uses 2.5” precision mandrel bent tubing and optimised gas-flow characteristics to endow the couthy coupe with a 5% increase in power as well as useful improvements in driveability and sound. Construction is from T304 grade Stainless Steel throughout.

    If you’re thinking the system looks familiar, you’d be right. Scorpion originally designed the box for the limited edition of 800 Prodrive-tuned PZ cars. So if it’s good enough for both them and Mazda, you can imagine that the design has undergone some comprehensive testing and evaluation before being approved. Whilst the PZ became a rare and instant classic, you can at least now create the sound and performance on any RX8 with this new system.

    Best of all, the flawlessly finished tail pipe is now a 114 x 90mm oval, which is a perfect fit for the factory bumper apertures, looking far more in keeping than the original, circular system.

    Priced at just £449.95 including all fittings and a limited lifetime warranty, you’d be a Wankel not to want one!
