Anybody used this company for exhaust / downpipe / kat?

They've quoted me £650 for 3" downpipe and exhaust plus £400 extra if i want a race kat. Seems a good price as they're work looks great.

Thats very expensive IMHO - even for stainless, but I don't have any opinion on the company or their workmanship. A thousand quid gets you a full stainless system from Supersprint - not with 3" downpipe of course, but this price is very high.

Some of the best exhausts i have seen. well worth the £650. I know off the top of my head with clamps and bends i have spent nearly £300 to build my own not including the boxes i already have.

They are used a lot in the cosworth world, and are top of the line quality, so can only recomend them.
Price bit high but as said, quality is superb

Oh sorry - was this edited or was I asleep ?
£650 for downpipe and full system in stainless is fine price wise.... When I saw it first I read £650 for downpipe only and £400 extra for sports cat. Sorry

£650 for turbo back is a good price for a quality system but I would suggest that £400 extra for a race cat is excessive. They're not that expensive to buy and it's not too much extra work if you're already building a full system.

Agreed on the CAT price being a bit steep - unless it is gold plated or something.

I got a DP, cat and whole system for that! It is well made and works well. Try Prospeed in Cardiff, they made a jig off my car for the DP too.

Phoenix exhausts are also very good, they built my system for £700 and its top qualety. All the welds are spot on and they used V bands and a flexi on the downpipe.

Had a couple of 911's in with their exhausts on
Very very good quality and provided a good power increase as well as sounding the dogs!!!!

i'd have to agree with andy here, i have a prospeed exhaust, cat back, cnc bends where they are able to be used, all in for £350 he said he would do a twin 2.5" full system if i ever put a v in my car for £500 so i'd guess a 3" would be somewhere between that price £650 sounds high to me even for quality work......

might be worth asking if they would do it as a group buy?...as a few people are looking at getting their exhausts...me included!!...

I've been chasing one place in Wales about a modular system - time limited with other hassles, but they are obviously busy too.

Whoever is going to see these Hayward & Scott guys - it is definitely worth asking about the prices for having them create suitable jigs for a Coupe downpipe & system so that could be amortised over 5, 10 or more customers. The workmanship does appear very good here. It would be great if we could get into £500 territory - without CATs for downpipe and two boxes in stainless 3" format.

The downpipe MUST have three bungs as follows -

1 - Factory position near turbo for CO/EGT probe
2 - Factory position for lambda probe
3 - Much lower position at end of downpipe to accomodate wideband lambda probe. I can advise further details on that one for correct orientation.

ALSO --->

Downpipe should also accomodate some sort of flexi section and accomodate the front support bracket under the car nicely to avoid undue stress.

The CAT section should be optional along with a straight pipe available for deCATTED folk

The section for 1st silencer box should be optional with a straight pipe available for noisy boogers

Special care up and over the driveshaft at the rear for clearance

If they jig this nicely and test out with a couple of locals, then they should be able to offer it mail order... That would suit me perfectly.

The £650 is downpipe and exhaust not just exhaust.

£650 is a good price - Do you know if that include flanges or do they butcher your existing DP?
