I have the angled exit pipes and i dont like them.... but i love the system as it sounds superb, so dont really need/want to replace, they just look odd with my kit!

My rather strange question is, can these exit pipes be straigtened?

on a different thread, someone said they paid to get them done straight, but the tradesman who did it said he wished he hadn't - very difficult apparently

do a search on say 'straight and angled and exhaust'?

hmmmm, ok, just the current angled one is a really big one and really nice and all the cheaper replacements are just a bit weedie.... ah well....will keep trawling the scrappies and "parts for sale" section here a bit longer
