They are very good for the money mate. I have 2 twin exit's on my car and they look and sound fat like me 

Powerflow all depends on where you get it made. Some outlets are great some are bad news.
For Ԛ£350 you can buy an exhaust which will fit your existing system and probably flow alot better aswell and not be as loud.
For Ԛ£350 you can have Sebring, Mongoose, Scorpion......long list.

Hi, i had a powerflow on my xr3i was awesome system sounds really deep and loud, kind of a boy racer exhaust really though and does get on your nerves a bit on long journeys.
i kept the system when i sold car as i liked the sound and quality of the exhaust.
also had a powerflow on my 320i some years ago, i found it very loud it definately got the looks when driving round, but again motorway cruising/long journeys were not as nice.
my recommended exhaust for a bimmer is a scorpion i have one on my 325i sounds the business and its ok on long journeys

Powerflow can match the type of sound you want. I told them i wanted the sound of a purring loud cat, not a jap style rumble and they got it right. Saying that I know the boss of my local brach on a personal basis, so i guess that helped.

my best mate had his powerflow system done at Top Gear st Albans which is supposed to be the best.
I will let you judge that from these photos:

Yeah most Powerflow exhausts I have seen are made from low quality stainless and all have surface rust..
I have a powerflow on my Sport which I bought s'hand for Ԛ£50
and sounds real well great for Diff'n & Drift'n
I have an HKS Super Dragger on my Teg R which is three years old and is still mint..
And I had a Scorpion on a VR6 Corrado and it was still perfect after two years..

Ive just taken a custom powerflow system off a Calibra V6 Im breaking.
Looks just as rusty as the one in Rags photos. Not impressed with it at all, its under a year old but doesnt look it!

my powerflow from my xr3i was on the car for a year and had no rust at all when i took it off, didn`t take much to pollish it up to near new condition

I got one on the M50, well the midbox anyway. It was a lot fatter than the Scorpion and thus scraped on speed humps
I didnt have it for long enough to see if it rusted to $h!t but i was disatisfied with their service (St Albans branch), i asked them to save the mid section so i could give it to a friend but instead they cut it out when they coudlnt get it off. If i wanted that id have paid half the price and got them to cut and chop the midbox

Not overly impressed with mine either, didn't fit right at first and it now rattles, and there are some rust spots appearing after only a year!
But it was the only exhaust i could afford at the time and does make a nice noise IMO
