This is from a custom exhaust thay came off our C-max. The flexi pipe was split and it was cheaper to buy a new exhaust than to get a new flexi pipe section. Can anyone identify the type of silencer that is on it? (the conical looking part)

I'm sure I saw something very similar on an episode of Wheeler dealers, but I can't find anything like it online. I need funds to repair my van (don't we all) and wondered if it might be worth selling). The whole system made a nice sound, although wasn't exactly what a c-max might normally sound like.

Thanks

Looks like a bike silencer.

It does, just like an old school stroker chamber.

A bike silencer??

Oh dear, I guess I shouldn't be surprised really. The car has been nothing but trouble since I bought it and every mechanical brings up evidence of yet another bodge.

Are you sure thats not the second cat, first cat up by the manufold?
Have seen cats welded in like that.

That is a cat with exhaust welded on, looks more like mk2 focus performance pipe, is common mod for C-Max our one had similar but was too noisy so put a standard system on and sold it on f0rd forum.

Cat or expansion type silencer (all depends on whether it has a ceramic monolith inside of it) welded to a motorbike rear silencer.

I can see a CAT behind it on the manifold/front pipe.
