Jetex used to be recommended on OOF, Not sure if they still are or not the best option available out there now. Full Jetex: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/110833233555

I've got a stainless 2-1 with one centre silencer, I was going to get the whole Jetex but couldn't justify the cost. But wasn't completely happy with the way the car sounded. So tried a straight pipe from the centre silancer (no back box) was fun for awhile but not good for cruising... The drone never gave me a headache but it was tiring.

So bought a Jetex back box and it's been like that for almost a year now no issues, Sounds good and looks good to me anyway. This back box: http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/300606283576?_mwBanner=1 I didn't pay this much I bought mine directly from Jetex but can't find it on their site now.

I doubt you will get a Jetex now, I enquired about four years ago and there weren`t any in stock and would only make another run if enough orders were placed.
Jetex would be my No1 choice, SJC was considering selling his at one point and would be a good second hand buy, fit and finish is superb and the tone is just right  ;)

Had a email back from profusion exhausts but they want to get the car in to have a look and design a bespoke one ... think they start from £400 but fitting is in Lundun  ::)  It mite be worth the trip going by all the reviews on the site but that link to the ebay one looks ok  ;)

It took me ages but finally found a used jetex stainless system on eBay so they do pop up now and then, don't think I'd like to pay the full retail price!

They are worth the money though and you know they have had proper R&D, Jetex were recommended by Blydenstein.

Mine is a profusion back box. It sounds great not boy racer  and not to loud at speed.

I still have a catback exhaust system that I had built for my Omega, which fits the Irmscher twin exit kitted rear bumper perfectly, it was built with performance in mind and worked perfectly... and sounded fantastic too...

Long Life are pretty good, you can also specify your spec, Performance, noise level etc.

Is your for Saloon or Estate, may be able to help with a second hand one.

There is a Dutch member who fitted one of those, was in the gallery section, at that price just buy it, and get young bear to fit it,
It's a very well made system that's also twin box like O.E..I f I had the money I'd buy one tomorrow. :y
