Hmm, my suddenly very expensive 55 MCS (belts, tensioners, oils etc) has now started blowing out the rear box. A closer look shows a load of gum gum wedged in the rear silencer, so a new exhaust it is.

Kwik Fit wanted £900, ATS £950, & another local £930. This is catback. Surely I must be able to do better than this? Not really after a Miltek or Sportex, just a straight replacement will do.

Any of you clever & beautiful people have a line on reasonable exhaust suppliers?

P.s. If anyone knows a good place to lend/rent/buy the serpentine tensioner tool, I'd be very interested in that too. :)

A milltec is 500 for a cat back
Scorpion is 400 and they are all stainless so won't rust
Plus you'll get better performance with em
