mild steel is crap, thats quite expensive which theyve quoted you, i can respect if youre on a budget, like most of us, but if youre getting a new exhaust, stainless is so much better, where abouts are you based? i paid £220 for decat full stainless, it would of been £280 with cat, and thats from a proper exhaust fabricators, not the quikfit cowboys, have a look in your local yellow pages

It's worth travelling the 45 miles to powerflow. They'll probably be cheaper, it'll be stainless (lifetime warranty usually) and you'll be able to choose the system (looks and sound) to match your needs.

They're an exhaust specialist, they'll be able to do anything you ask for. Give them a call and find out  :smiley:

The cat is not worth saving, it should not fitted to your car as the bore is too small so it will be causing a restriction  :smiley:
