Title: exhaust system help/suggestions..
Post by: thebaldeagle on 02 August 2012, 18:03:54
evening all,..just wanted to see what other members have or suggest regarding exhaust systems?
Our mv6 has developed a very slight blow from the o/s centre box :'(
Now im debating whether or not to replace the sustem and go down the stainless route...cat back system like ive done on so many cars in the past.
Problem i have is i cant find any stockists or suppilers around my area (chester)
I know demon tweeks can do a bespoke set up but would imagine this to be very pricey and hardly worth it?
Any suggestions would be gratefully received..thanx all

Eternalcar - they're on Ebay, about 95 quid cat back, brilliant quality.

Eternal from ebay. Very good, and cheap. PITA to deal with though, but worth the hassle

Was there some uncertainty if the back box inner bits were different? Less flow? Recall some discussions on it  :-\

Only difference between 2.5 & 3.0 back boxes is no. of outlets - one or 2 pipes.  They are interchangable.
What is NOT interchangable is Saloon & Estate systems.
