    Ive had 2 exhausts fitted at Topgear in burnley, top place, lifetime warranty, and I can buy another new one when mine gets dirty and I will still save £100. I think I will go for this option as a "temp fix". Just not sure about the 2.5" pipe, will this limit my power at 320 hp or so ? (one i get it)

      You'll regret it in the long run mate, the lifetime warranty is for as long as you own the car, but if you have any problems all they'll do is put on another exhaust system.

      Also they dont use grade 304 steel, expect to see rust in 6-12 months.

      But you pays your money and take your choice.

        "Sure enough the system was fitted properly and 5 years down the line is still working well"

        5 years on a powerflow and still working fine?

        Its a tough descision and im unsure what to go for.

          Either go for what you know, or take our time, shop around and look at the alternatives.

          Powerflow are well dodgy in my book, i've seen nothing but problems on cars and i had bad experience with de-cat pipes.

            @ Ski; I've not had a good look at it for a while (My mate bought the car off me 3 years ago, but he would have mentioned it if it was blowing).

            Mind you it's that throaty he may not have noticed!

            Next time I see him I'll check it over and let y'all know!

            I'm in the market for a stainless system for the Passat VR6, and am awaiting a quote from Longlife - Leeds branch is 2 mins down the road from me. If it's silly, I'll trek over to Burnley.

              so i gues what people are going for is :
              1 ) longlife
              2 ) powerflow
              3 ) ???

              what other options are there apart from these 2 places in northwest?

                3) Milltek
                4) Scorpian (not sure about this)

                Don't know any more but I know a few people running the Milltek and it's a beautiful system
