exhaust question
« on: 13 March 2010, 19:14:50 »

i have just found out that my drivers side middle box has collapsed and blown through to by back box and blocked the exit pipe which after pulling some of the crap out my other problem seems to have gone so my question is .......
Do I need my middle box?
what are the pros and cons to not having it?
as it seems to be costing me £200-£300 to replace.

Just paid £115 plus postage for a full cat back system off Ebay

Have a look about mate, they arent that pricey at all

Mine came from Poland, but again, quality is good, ask Mark DTM, he fitted it and it went on like a glove.....

Have a poke around Ebay, got mine from "neucarparts"
