Hi guys
Im in the market for a full exhaust system for my 86 325 4 door including manifold, any suggestions?? I want to go stainless for less than a grand, the rest of the car is oem apart from a 30mm drop all round, so id like to keep it looking stock i dont want a chavvy sounding thing but a low rumble would be nice as all i can hear now is it blowing!!

You can buy a scorpion manifold back for about £1000. eBay have scorpion for £631

OEM look best buy OEM exhaust
I bought New Scorpion Full Sports Exhaust System with "STW exhaust tips" via individual request to factory.
Usually they just come with "Le Mans tips"
Good sound
Does turn quite a few heads if that's your bag!
Could be louder for my liking
Stw tips are thin twin pipe with slash cut so similar design to OEM except the tips are a bit bigger.
From all the tip choices they look the most similar to OEM
All the tips are a big bigger than standard
I chose Scorpion because of the engineering quality and they are renowned.
Brand new this was over £600. Bought mine from Demon Tweeks.

For OEM look but better sound u could try straight through but with OEM tips or with OEM back box welded on but with all the material inside removed.
