A moderator informed me on 12 Jan 08 that a test would be carried out 'within the next two weeks'.... I have bought one,it is sat on my dining room floor...every time I walk past it I say 'phooor,look at the curves on that'. 'er indoors is now asking how long it is staying,she's jealous.I am currently reasearching stainless exhaust systems,I need the centre and rear sections of a three piece system,any advice gratefully received.

When i get my b25 up and running again, i will personaly test it stock then with the manifold and we shall see. Seems a dyno run could help sales a lot, then again it makes you wonder if its been dynoed and there trying to hide the results. Il post up the results when i get it mine done, won't be for a few months though.

Simon,patience is a vertchew(SP)!! I have a quote from longlife Leeds branch who will only supply and fit and a quote from Scorpion who will mail order.I would go with Longlife because they will tailor the system to my age, ie make it quiet,but my existing 2 piece system is not compatable with the 6 branch.Now whilst every time I drive to Leeds I never see a plod,the day I try it with just a manofold for an exhaust there will be a copper every 100 yards!! What is the zone opinion on the Scorpion,please?

Some of the Longlife exhausts I have seen have been very very good.

Scorpions fit very well but are a lad loud for some.
