On a car worth a few hundred pounds, is is worth it? the exhaust might last for ever, the car is unlikely to......... :-\ :-\

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)..

The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.

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.
