Expensive, but i'm thinking of selling mine.  Nothing to do with how great it is, just becauase i'm thinking of MAYBE going the turbo route.

About 400, i'm open to offers.  Its very very VERY light, next to the stock it weighs practically nothing and my silencer is removed.  As soon as you drive the car you feel the extra pull and the change to the handling.

Feel free to take a look if your coming down to JAE, I like it so much i'm really not that keen on selling but maybe changing my approach to modding my '2

No, £400 for mine.  Cost me so much to get it here, hehe.  This one is lighter and gives more power than you'd buy normaly.  Your quite welcome to hear it and see it at JAE  s:) :) s:)

Don't just think it...DO IT   s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:  

Don't know much about this exhaust but why would you change it if you went turbo, it would still bolt on?

Yeah yeah but if I went turbo i'd 100% get rid of the pre-cats and as I said the Tannabe doesn't have a silencer and without a cat there keeping the sound down I think it might be a little to much   s8) 8) s8)

Uh, if you were going turbo, you'd have no choice but to ditch the pre-
CATs.

Hint: I have muchexperience in turbo conversion, I'm sure I could sell you lots of excellent consultancy... especially in the things that the US guys never talk about..
