The only thing I could find on this exhaust is its a Hartge BMW M3-style four-outlet exhaust, priced at around £750, I guess it doesn't offer any more horsepower just more sound.

Sorry can't help you more

That's exactly what it is. Sounds good in the car but farty from outside.

BTW the Hartge site is less than useless IMO.

It was acceptable in the 80's

Its not actually a Hartge exhaust, its a Birds Spirit exhaust, from what i remember from the days of rasp an bonnie scotland hving them. Birds being the UK distributor for Hartge, they said it was more for looks an sound rather than performance

Well I never knew that. They told me it was a Hartge exhaust when I went to Birds. You learn something everyday.
