Why does only one exhaust pipe work on my TF?
- because there is a valve, the EVC ( Exhaust Volume Control ) valve,
fitted to the off side pipe. It was fitted to reduce noise at low revs.
It was disconnected by many dealers on new TF's as part of the PDI. It
can be disconnected in two ways.
- easy way - find the valve just behind the tail pipe, you will see
a pipe coming from it, pull it off, plug the end (I used a self
tapping screw), and tie wrap it out of the way. With the pipe
disconnected the valve is open.
- the not so easy way - I'll let Rob Bell explain the procedure
here.

Where can I buy a Daytona exhaust from?, or a Miltek, Bastuck,
Janspeed.....
- A Daytona can be purchased from Mike Satur, this page
for a TF and
this page for the F.
- A Miltek can be purchased from Brown & Gammons.
- An Xpower can be purchased from
any Xpart outlet, or from the
MG-Rover.org on-line shop, don't forget the 10% discount if your a
supporter, or if your after the Janspeed version, from PTP's
on-line shop. Bear in mind that there are three variations of the
'XPower' exhaust, but I believe only two types are available.
- A Scorpion can be purchased from the MGF Centre.
- A Pipedream/Blueflame can be purchased from Abingdon MG
Parts Ltd, click
here for the F, and click
here for the TF system.
- A Bastuck can be purchased from XTec-Tuning.de, I hope your German is
good!!.
- A Supersports exhaust can be purchased from
MGOC Accessories. These exhausts are made by Tiger Exhausts.
- A DTM style exhaust can be purchased from
Moss Europe Ltd.
- A Phoenix system can be purchased direct from Phoenix Performance Exhausts
Ltd, or from TR Bitz, don't let the TR's fool
you!!. Its also possible that Techspeed can supply them as well.
- Another option is a
Peco system, these are made to order with a choice of tail pipes.
- There is also the Trevor Taylor TT Extreme system, but since this is
a limited production system, its not easy to get one. Of the two
production runs there has been, I've only ever seen one for sale. And boy
are they loud !!!, I've been in Steve White's TF which has one fitted, it
sounds fantastic, but I couldn't live with it on a daily basis. So if you
want one, keep your eyes on the various forum's for sale sections. Check
out the TT
Exhausts web site for further information.
