Tubular manifolds are €400, cats are £200 each, plus £800... not much change from £2k :-\

if that's for a twin box system and tail pipe no Y pice. A direct copy of an omega system its over priced £600 all in. The boxes they use are pre-made bought in, and they will re-use your flanges, and are they using 304 stainless (food grade)..

Sad thing is I was a fabricator for years If only I could get my hands on a pipe former I could make it myself. >:(

Decided to go for a Jetex one half the price but still looks as good. :-\ http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/performance/exhaust-systems/car/vauxhall/omega/2004/3-2/jetex-performance-stainless-steel-cat-back-exhaust-system-63-5mm-diameter-twin-round-80mm-tailpipes

I've had a Cat back Jetex on mine for a few years now with no issues. :y It fitted really well and is a copy of the original system, just in bigger bore. Andy B had one on his saloon as well. :y
I thought that they were a job to get hold of now, as I believe Mr Gav was interested in one some time back. :-\

Considered the jet ex mid sections myself at one point, but the increased bore won't fit the Irmscher back end.
I'd want a proper double exit though, if I didn't have the irmy one. Which, iirc, meant a non standard option. I think.

I have a Jetex on mine, sounds superb, well above its station according to a mate of mine!
