Post by: bigtow on 19 February 2013, 18:44:14

Call them. I think you have to call in morning, IIRC.

Centre sections for 3.2 are the same as 3.0/2.6/2.5

Chances are you will need all 3 parts to be honest.

I have not long had the back box replaced so hoping to just replace the centre sections I am thinking about fitting 3.0 down pipes and doing away with the PRE cats at some point when they need doing

Is this for a saloon?

If so, could you let me know the Eternal Part Numbers when you have them as I need the same  :y

AFAIK, they only do backboxes for PFL, leaving the tailpipe a tad short. I think its suck it and see, or get a chavtastic trim piece to extend just proud of bumper.

Chav trims will do, although I did spot a rusty Irmscher backbox with the rear tailpipes intact somewhere up North on saturday..... Just a wave of a welder and who would know?  ::)

I tried numerous times, phoning, email, answer phone etc. I gave up in the end and bought my replacement exhaust from my local VX dealer...

Personally found eternalcar to be good with both emails and phone - perhaps I was just lucky :)

I've a PFL backbox on my FL, and think that it being level with the bumper rather than extending from it looks much better. Although it would be better still if it wasn't visible at all.

Bigtow, I have a nearly new PFL V6 saloon system from the cats back that is no use to me. It's in my lockup in Hoo. Yours for £20. The exhaust that is, not the lockup!

They do. Tell them its a 3.0l from 2001.

The backbox is a shade short on saloons, not sure if same applies to Estates, as they don't have the silly "Rover 800" style baloon bumpers.

Didn't Tunnie get one from another supplier? I know he had problems but did it get sorted satisfactorily and what was the quality like?
