Anonymous Unregistered A	I heard a selection of exhausts at the recent SRR RR day and for me the Pipecraft on Yellafella's car was the nicest at idle/low revs. Sort of a refined woofle like something Italian and exotic so in keeping with the Coop's character. I've finally got my Scorpion fitted correctly and its growing on me. Its turned out to be quite refined on the Motorway and gives a nice burble at idle. It sort of makes the Coop sound like a Rally Audi Quattro on full throttle. I'll post some pics and sounds soon. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Last edited by cosmograph; 26/01/2006 00:50.

Anonymous Unregistered A	Ive not got a decat. It still sounds quite loud. Maybe not quite as loud as Rog's but its still enough to set up half the car alarms at work. Not sure if I could live with it any louder. Have a respectable career during the week <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Anonymous Unregistered A	Quote Cosmoraph- have you got an decat fitted aswell? No still got my cat. De-cat would be far too loud for me and the legal side of it worries me a bit.

Anonymous Unregistered A	Hi All I'm now in the market for new exhaust <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> Quote Blueflame are going to be doing a cat back for the coupe in 3-4 weeks. £225 deliverd. Si Anyone know any details about this ? I emailed them via ebay and they said they don't do a cat back. I don't want to spend a fortune either like the OP, £250 sounds like a good max price, so far I've found: Cybox - one box, ss AA - OEM, steel Fast fit retailers - steel PowerFiat - one/two box, ss, can't deliver What other choices are there ? Cheers Stoopid...

Anonymous Unregistered A	Don't know about any other suggestions Stoopid but i can highly reccommend the PowerFiat one. I have one box with a decat aswell and it sounds the dogs! The fit is excellent too, as i've heard others have fitting issues (IIRC the cybox/Peco one??) <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I've heard that about the Cybox one which is putting me off plus that fact I've never heard of them before.... Anyone know how much a Peco cat back system will cost me ?

Anonymous Unregistered A	No. Blueflame do though, about £350 IIRC but I'm not sure how you fit a Cat on this one come MOT time. The PF is cat-back for £220 plus they do a decat for £50. They don't do a downpipe but Highwayman is sorting a 2.5" one from H&S, hopefully under £200. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Edit: they're both for 20vt, not sure about 16vt Last edited by yellafella; 16/02/2006 20:47.

Anonymous Unregistered A	http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/JWR-STAINLESS-STEE...1QQcmdZViewItem A wee bit more cash but can have a sports cat in it for an extra £64. Think this is the blueflame one as its the same pic and price as the blueflame ad!!

Anonymous Unregistered A	Im in the market for a ss catback exhaust, spoke to PECO and theirs retail at £275 not sure about post and pack though... But i do know they were having fitting problems and they have remade their jig could cybox have there surplus stock??? They used a friends coupe for fitting purposes when they did it, he got a new exhaust for free lucky hey, well lucky for the guy who bought his car off him anyway....
