Had mine on now for just on 2 months.... loving it! Also had a max flow airfilter/Induction kit fitted at same time so difficult to say what has made the performance difference, but there certainly is an improvement. Not massive, but the car feels so much more free and easy to drive. Gets up and goes that much easier... aslo sounds so so so nice! Loving it.
Heres a few pics of the fitting, my old exhaust was "slightly" knackered to say the least! Its not 100% straight, and I am gonna be trying to fix that just cos its annoying me! |  |  | | 05-04-2006, 09:20 AM | #47 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2005 Location: England, UK Posts: 1,288 |

jeez! how long did it take them? took the one i use for EVERYTHING i can't be assed took 45 mins and did a fantastic job. they cleaned the car underside too before refitting where the exhaust sits.
mine sounds quite loud now too. When first fitted it sounds REAL quiet but as it soots up it gets louder. __________________

it's not about time, its about precision. lazy gits will just slap it in. a descent guy will do it by the book and fit in properly (NO MORE than 1HR). __________________
