Exhaust 2.6
« on: 18 July 2016, 09:53:07 »

I am in need of the  cats back section for my 2003 CD 2.6. I am thinking I will go with Eternal how do I ensure that I get the correct system.Does it come with a back box. Any ideas would be very helpful. Any idea how long the system is without the back box will I get it in the car to take to a garage to fit?

The entire cat-back system from eternal is about £90 delivered. It includes everything, from the cat flange to the back bumper, includes fittings and is a good buy. Provided you order for the correct body type(saloon or estate) the V6 systems are interchangeable, the only real difference is a single or twin exit back box which is cosmetic.


You'll easily get it in the car.


It's less than an hour's work to fit, on your own, with the car on a pair of axle stands in the street. Assuming you don't have to drill the cat flange bolts, which might add another 15minutes.

Thanks for that Nick I have read that Eternal say they do not make a system for a 2.6 so if I order a 3.0 litre with a single outlet that should be ok.

Order 3.0L for twin outlet,
Order 2.5L for single outlet.

^^^^^^^^^ These are both true, and make no difference to the running :y

You'll easily get it in the car.

On or even Under would be better.  :y

I agree under the car all connected would be best but as I am 80 next month I will leave it to my garage to fit.

That's one of the better excuses we've had on the forum!

I have looked on ebay at the eternal site and they quote £66.91 for a 2.5 cats back system Omega B. Can this be the correct one why so cheap.

The two preferred suppliers are ets or eternal.

Thanks Biggriffin It certainly looks like Eternal is the one to go for .I could not understand their quoted price of £66.91 previous posts on the forum  have been in the £100 range.
