« on: 30 October 2012, 11:09 »

I'd hope that price is for a full system?!

Don't bother with the sports cat...just get a decat pipe and save your money :wink:

im doing mine in stages, twin rear miltek non-res, then sports down pipe unless i can twist my mechanics arm, and then i'll start with manifold, my friends dad owns a metal shop and specialise in castings  :lipsrsealed: and then hopefully one day uprating the engine itself or getting it rebuilt which ever way i feel about it, though if your wanting sounds then just go for what most have done and get the drafts zorst i think it is, 3" all the way
