Rog - Are you getting them to make you a new exhaust, or can they modify your existing exhaust? If they can do your existing I may get mine slash cut next time I come to see you.

I'll be looking forward to those pics so I can decide which one to go for.
I'll probably book a day off work, and come visit Basildon for the day while its fitted.

if sound is an issue then you can have an additional 2nd silencer for an extra £40.
so a twin box stainless steel straight thru system would be £260 with rolled or slash cut exit.
Rog, with that deal and inclusion of the second box you have sorted my problems too. My Supersprint is on the way out and like Craig have been looking for a near standard sounding system but in stainless. Up to this point it looked like I woul have to go with the standard Fiat mild steel affair. Expect a few orders

Cheers for that Rog. I'd love to see a pic of it, as i much prefer slash cut exits to the normal one's (if you can't get a pic - maybe I could see it before it got fitted to the car?) to decide if i'll like it or not (yes i'm fussy) If I did go for another box (so its got two) would it affect the performance of the car (i know that just changing the exhaust on a car can imporve it, but on some cars it can also go the other way & restrict them) I'm not after any gains in power from the exhaust, as I realise its only a cat back. Would it be a replica of the existing exhaust thats on the car ? I prob looking to get the exhaust sorted in the next month or so. Craig.

1 I have existing cat, only mid end rear section fitted. 2 Not that loud both on and off boost, no nasty droning when on motorway, but may get louder once i've done a few miles. I don't like loud and right now it sound's just right, bit racey but not over the top 3 2-3 hours
PS It feel's like the coupe is pulling better in the high rev's (i.e boost) compared to the supersprint

adder - you should find it gets quieter after a few hundred miles (mine did) - just a bit mind.
Any pics of your slashcut?

I've just heard Adders new exhaust and it definantly sounds very nice. it has a nice growl to it, without being too boy racerish.

My pf exhaust turned gold pretty quickly indeed. It was fine from Powerfiat to scooby's house (nice and shiny silver). But after driving in one of Scooby's quite quick convoys the poor exhaust got so hot it turned gold

like i say to all buyers, it needs a monthly polish with autosol to keep the chrome look. stainless will dis-colour with heat. jsut like the milltek's, they all go gold until polished. ill post pictures in a min on this thread.
