Don't bother me at all and no point you having a pop at me, I spoke to Magnaflow in the US last Thursday and they told me they do not make one, have spent 4 hours today with Magnaflows sole UK official agent who say there isn't one, I have both cars and the system they do make so I know if it will fit or not, I think that probably makes me a little bit more informed than a 2 year old email.

I just don't want to see someone spend there hard earned on something that will not fit there car.

I am not having a pop at you just saying what Magnaflow told me in a email even if it was 2 years old, If its the case that one of their employees got it wrong then THEY got it wrong not me ...so less of the negative attitude ..

I'v made my mine up and I'm going for it next week. Booking up tomorrow. I'm getting a new exhaust and my wife is getting a new ring. And that's not a piston ring. This exhaust is going to cost me big time :-)

Hell, here in the states, they will custom make you an exhaust with whatever muffler you choose. Bend, shape, weld....and there you go.... Just no bolt on systems....

You will find Raj very helpful, Will not rush you, will let you take tail pipes out to try agains your car to see how they look, they did a fantastic job on mine, the welding is also excellent.

I was like a kid in a toy shop enjoy

Well I got kinda bored with my standard system so I did what any self-respecting boy-racer does.... I took off the rear silencer

Kept the tips so it all looks standard from behind but it sure doesn't sound standard <grin>. I'll admit that it can get a little drony at various points but if you modulate your throttle properly there's no problem (though being said I used to drive an unsilenced 2000 SS Camaro and an unsilenced F150 Lightning so I guess I just like noisey cars!)

Now that's a cheaper option but will you not have issues come MOT time?

not sure TBH - I do know some MoT testers it shouldn't affect the emmission etc so that's not a problem, I don't think the noise is a problem for the test either (or to put it another way the SS and F150 were waaaay louder!)
