There is only one for the V6's - single or twin tailpipe option are the same price so getting a twin tail is a no-brainer!
The tailpipes will sit a little under the bumper as I feel that they are really made for the small bumper versions.
I have one on a 2.6 and am WELL pleased. Got a local indep. to fit it.
Getting one of these systems is an absolute bargain - you can almost justify one a year but the build quality seems to be par with anything else.
Mine came well boxed and within 5 days of order.

I wouldn't say getting a double tail pipe is a no brainer, if you want the tail pipe the right length and to look like the old one you need to add a chrome or stainless exhaust tip, I bought a single pipe version and added a stainless oval, it looks as good or even better than two pipes IMO, if I had bought the twin pipe I would have wanted to add a tip on both which would cost twice as much and be twice as hard to line up, took me long enough to get one oval looking right as it twisted every time I tighten the bolts, lol, and it cost almost as much as the back box :D

Oh and to the original poster, £300 sounds pretty good if it has 2x cats, I doubt you will find it cheaper

To me, if you have two pipes going the full length of the car it seems daft to then bring them together at the back. If we have the joy of having a 'V' engine then imo it should have a pipe per bank.
I actually con't see the point in putting a finisher on the eternal system as with the twin pipes there is enough metal to fill the aperture. If you go to the wrong place to get the finishers then you may as well have got a Jettex stainless system that fits correctly!!

Ah, missed the fact he wants cats as well. :-[

Is the exhaust the same for estate as for saloon?
