anything under 1k is good value for a stainless system ,if you can find some centre outlet cast manifolds you can run a single pipe through the side panels to your silencers but these manifolds are fairly restrictive

If you can't stomach spending a thousand quid or more on a set then why not try making a set? Several people on here have, heres my attempt:



Having made a set I do now see that it does take a while and thats why they cost so much tho!!

And a bit a diary about how I did it (Still very much a work in progress website)

Tip: Don't muck about with a dremel like I did on the first side - just use a bench grinder and a flap wheel - still get a nice finish and much faster.
