for cheapish,but good quality (had some on my rrc 4 door for 4 years now,still a1) then try burton performance in london...yes i know they ford tuning shop,but they list ****e loads of aftermarket exhaust stuff...everything you need in fact..

have just a center box on the toyota v8 2 door (different engine i know,but still a v8) the rest 2 1/2 stainless with twin outlets either side...sounds lovely,burble burble,but i think too loud on long trips..tiring...and deffinatley too loud from 5000-7000rpm when it does sound like a race car ...me putting back the rear boxes,but cherry bomb type..

since when were burton in london???????? their in essex!

also they are really fooking expensive!
 
yes made it up..not expensive.HAGGLE!.they give discount if pushed..burton got london phone number,on the a12 surrounded by london.cant see a field from there..so they in london..(as much as heathrow is anyway)

yes made everything including headers except silencers..(and pipe,but you know what i mean..no one makes a stainless system for a toyota rangie!)

2inch headers into 2 1/2 then into twin 2 1/2 exits either side at rear via 3inch pipes (soon to be peplaced with cherry bomb type tails as too loud,too much attension when in stolen it mode.lol) ..if making twin all the way you will need to join up both sides using x pipe at some point..

they are in illford, essex they may be being swamped by the sprawling **** hole that is outer london but they are still in essex
 
yes they are...london covers a large area...city of london,middlesex,essex etc...i live in the **** hole..i should know..lol!

the way i look at it is...there are no fields inbetween them and the tower of london...therefore still london..ok outer london, but london..

anyway we off subject..they have the parts needed thats all..

re cost..go visit their website,gives all the prices etc...its down to you how/what you use so best you price it up...but as you doing on cheap?just remove back box and hear what it sounds like before buying anything?
 
I don't have any cats and blows on both sides of the centre box and possibly the rear too, sounds brilliant :D

How would it fair noise wise MOT/legally removing the centre box for a straight pipe?

James.
 
mine is fine.i have just a short straight through center box..it burbles lovely..not too loud unless you give it some under load..so no problem with mot..(besides its a 72.not even an emmision test..)

but toooo loud over 5000rpm on load.(flames out of exhaust when lifting etc...bit too much really)

besides if your standard exhaust is shot it WILL fail the mot..leagally..well that seems to be down to your plod..i have had them pull me over, but only to talk range rover lol!!i dont think they care, as long as you have ticket,insurance and havn't just tried to race down the high street..talking of traffic plod here,local plod have no clue as to regs..
