My 325 Cab needs a new Exhaust System,
I,ve been on-line and found a couple of companys that sell
the Le Mans Scorpion Middle and Back Boxes Part number SBM012.
Has anybody purchased this system and what is it like as far as
quality and sound. I don't want anything that is to loud.
400 quid seems like a good price.

Hi Nick,

I have this on my cab and it is loud.
Got a full system, grabs peoples attention.
Its not going to rust any time soon. And looks better on chromie cab , high strung bottom.

Thanks for the replies.
Sounds like Scorpion is not for me.
I'll have to look at something else.
For the moment I can get away with replacing the corroded pipes.
The join between middle and back box is blowing.

Nick may be worth considering having a word with Craig, Custom stainless systems made to your specification. his work is spot on :)

My 6 branch and my custom stainless was made by Craig
