Yeah, looks familiar Paul!

Have the welds held out? The original way the supports were welded was a bit cack!

I really liked that pipe, looks great and sounds brilliant too! Get a deresonated centre section if you can too ;)

as far as i can see the welds are all good, stu (slieper) said he got them all re-welded and strengthed if i remeber correctly, says stevie w is his misus uncle i think .so got him to do the work

BigFelly. I could give you a hand on Sunday to fit man. I have tools etc. and have changed my own exhaust parts a good few times over the last 4 years. Gives a pm if you want me to assist.

BACK box is now fitted, sounds great to me, especialy just burbling away driving along had a smile on my face permantly on the way home, got it fitted at R A Motorsport while it was getting its service and mot done, also got new break pads fitted too, asked andy if he had 5min to fit the back box while it was on the ramp and he did it no problem , tried recording a vid of sound before with the standard sti backbox and after wi the ninja 2, excuse the crapy camera work had to balance it on my training bag .

i went up there for a free winter check last year to try them out and have been up 4 or 5 times now, the service is great , prices are decent and theres always lots of helpful advice, think a few guys on here have been up there now , ive had my scoop re-sprayed up there, the mot and service ,breaks done, back box fitted and the rear passenger end rebuilt wheel,hubs,con rods,bearings. and i dont mind the drive up , only takes about 30 -40 min bypass all the way up , and theres usualy a good bit of banter , id say worth the journey up never had better service from a garage ,even main dealers when ive bought new cars from .
