Some Autofactors stock 1 or 2m lengths of exhaust pipe and probably some silencers.

Im getting a couple lengths and then modding my old 325i back box to get my conversion on the road. Not bothering with a centre box to begin with, but if its too loud I will put something in there.

I bought enough stainless pipe and mandrel bends to make an entire twin system and manifolds for just over Ԛ£300 delivered from a place called "Exhausts by Design" if that's any help? :)

I would stay clear of cheap tubing from factors. It doesnt usually last much more than a year. A mate welded in a section to replace the cat on his diesel Merc and he had to replace it every MOT cos it was rotten. With the rest of the exhaust still good.
