Re: 14" or 15"

From what people say on here, you will lose performance etc. if you buy a custom exhaust unless properly done. I have no experience in that field though!

Re: 14" or 15"

I think the major question is whether or not they actually consider the design of the exhaust or just make it up - hence they call it custom. Seriously I know nothing about it but some on here do so wait for them to reply lol.

The main problem could be that they do put customs on everything - hence how do you know the one they do for you will be good for your car?

Re: 14" or 15"

Try the thing yu typing your replies on for searching for the zorst you should get.

£330 is around the usual for the twin exit pipes for custom stuff but what Paul is trying to say is that the silencers tey will use are universal and are not flow tested for your particular car as they will fit silencers of varying length to anything that comes through the door.

The galling thing is that folks who get these are tricked into thinking there car is quicker cos of the noise but it's all in there head.

Important bit is though it's your money and you can buy what you like with it though.

Liam

Not necessarily at all... If a "custom" system is too long in one part or too wide, yes it may be a hell of a lot louder, but the performance may suffer..

What you really need is a proper exhaust specialist!
