Post by: gazon69 on January 28, 2012, 05:09:37 pm
Ive been on bcs website and it says they are custom made, is this correct?  So they dont post out? Is the resonated blueflame louder than a non res milltek then.

When you say manufacture do you make them from scratch with raw
Material or do you buy the pipes ready made and then jig  up the systems

Whats the difference in price against the miltek? N blueflame do a high flow cat etc to make a full system? And how do the performance figures stack up against the miltek generally.

Our systems are jigged up in house from products that we have designed and had manufactured in our own production fixtures again made in house.
This enables us to concentrate on combining the best of both worlds, our design skills and our supply partners manufacturing capabilities.
The nett result is a product that is unsurpassed at a great price.

Hi Monte
Thanks for that - have to say can't fault your enthusiasm.
Just by way of clarification the system that we offer and indeed fitted to your ED30 was manufactured completely and utterly by us at BCS, and whilst loosely based on a concept that I came up with back in 2005 at Blue Flame it has morphed into the product you have before you that you are so pleased with.
Sorry to sound all anal retentive on this - but as you can imagine if Blue Flame have a queue of customers looking for the system you are describing here then they will be disappointed. I guess it's a bit like calling a 'Dyson' a 'Hoover'
I am happy to divulge via pm all of the new features that are enginereed into the product to those who are curious, but in the meantime once again many thanks for all of the customers who had the faith to stick with, and trust me in this venture.
I hope I have earned the trust of the forum members in my openness and honesty.
Cheers
Nige

Ok now you confuse me  :confused:  as when you fitted the prototype system to my car with the older style cat on it and the smaller flexi pipe you told me its the first ed30 you had ever done hence how crazy cheap you did it for me,my car blew the flexi apart and you basically made me another down pipe with a larger flexi and the same smaller high flow cat you are using now as I have compared pics of your system you make that is the same as the blue flame as your the person I dealt with all the time at blue flame for at least 3 of my cars you had done. I even remember the day I came to pick up my new down pipe and you said this is how they will all be from now on. :confused: I know your a new business and all that but please don't say your product is better than one that you made for someone else  :rolleye:

Hi Matt
We did a group buy on here some time back on some Blue Flame systems that I had purchased.
However, I have modified the design to take advantage of the new larger (125mm)100 cell cat  (products supplied from this point) - this is a better product that was previously available from the cat manufacturer, and incidentally costs nearly twice as much.
Why the switch? Well simply people want 200 cell cats (100mm) as they don't throw the cel on -  the larger cats flow better and still do not put the cel on
The Golf needs a 200mm flex in order to withstand the transverse motion produced by the increased torque. The systems that I sold on here, were Blue Flame cat backs with BCS downpipes with the 1d bends off the turbo and modified flex joints along with the smaller 200 cell cats.

(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi66.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fh269%2Fnigeblueflame%2FVW%2FMotorSportCat.jpg&hash=e2ca257baba115e5a071f41ea6ea4037128779ba)

I'm just trying to stress that the new systems are to a new design with new features and yes IMHO new means better or up graded or what ever.
I'm not trying to put a downer on another brand especially as I was involved in the concept, and if you are happy with it then great  - merely saying that there should always be room for improvement in any product no matter what it is.
Cheers
Nige
