Exhausts
« on: 02 January 2008, 13:14:43 »
Hi there!

I recently had my tracking done and they put my Omega up on the hoist

Whilst it was up I had a look underneath and noticed my exhaust pipes were looking a bit battered and rusty.

I'm contemplating a big trip to Poland in a few months time and thought I might get 2 new exhausts before I go to save any dramas.

I thought about getting some 'aftermarket' ones, maybe stainless steel .....

Has anyone here ever bought any non standard 'performance' type pipes, if so where could I get a set??

Also would the twin pipe back box from the 3.0 litre fit right onto a standard 2.5 system??

Thanks [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]

Similar answer to your post on brakes.  Vx original on TC is the way to go.  Should end up at about 250 quid for a full cat back system.

Is this the same as the 3.0 system? I've been charged £800 for the complete system on TC - both cats, mids and back box...

excl the Cats its about 250 quid give or take for the two middle bits and the back box.  The 3L (dual pipe) back box adds a bit - guess 20-30 quid off hand.
