Anybody know if I could get a 3" mid section for the exhaust.. non-res?
I am thinking of getting this exhaust (see link below) which is the ebay 3" exhaust from the US. For some reason can't find any in the uk whatsoever.
Anyway, the dude said it was a resonated exhaust because of the mid section and you can see its not a straight through pipe.
So where could I get a replacement?

I ran a system that was pretty much identical to that and found it pretty loud, I'd run it as it is before deciding whether or not to make it louder.

yeah thought that after I posted it as have seen others run the same one and its loud. Think im just getting giddy trying to make it too loud or something worried about it being too quiet and no diff from stock

You will definitely notice a difference from stock :grin:

that is proper cheap, 180 quid for a full turbo back stainless system
-
Yeah for sure. I think import tax will be about £40 or so. Still worth it.
Its the ebay one loads of people got but for some reason cant find it on uk ebay

Actually thats the exact same item. Still from the Us.

Gotta be worth getting one of these especially when a decat will set u back 90 quid. Works out bout 180 all in not bad, think I'm tempted as well :smiley:
-
Just seen it only fits from a 99 plate on wards, :sad: mines a 98 is there any difference in fitting?
-
Didnt notice that. Dont know why that would alter it? Somebody else will know better
-
98 is AGU so will still be fine
-
Brilliant cheers, will I get any lights come up on dash with this system

Does anybody know what happenes come mot time?
I know I will have to sort a cat out bit would the standard downpipe and cat be easy enough to throw back in or do I have to replace the full system for the day?
I think I read the axle needs dropping or something to put it back on?

Thats the plan, but need a backup option too just in case
