Looks like a reasonable outfit. That tip is huge though!

That was the company that I saw and asked if they had a dyno before and after to show their massive power increase and they never answered. Careful no small animals get lost up there!!  Let us know what you think once you have it fitted, you will be the first.

i will let you all know once fitted, quality seems ok, no better no worse, material is quite substantial, welds are pretty chunky but will more than do the job, yes i dont for one min believe there will a power gain, they seem to be selling a lot of them though via ebay

Had exhaust fitted by Blue Flame, only charged me £25, initial impressions are quite good, welding not up to Blitz standards, but you would have to get down on your hands and knees or lift engine lid to tell and your not paying Blitz prices. Thought the tip might be too large but now i think it looks the dogs. On start up there's a nice deep burble (there was a guy there having a system fitted to his Cerbera who came out and had a look at mine and said it sounded really nice, not a bad recommendation!) When you get going it sounds quite throaty in the mid range when accelerating, but at motorway speeds is no louder than standard exhaust. Would post some pics if i knew what the hell i was doing with a pc. Could do with a how to post for all us pc illiterates.[/img]
