not cheap.
I've just getting an e-mail from them too. Same price. :clin: I bet they don't sell many.
Looks like I'm going to be going for a Scorpion, but not right now - I've got more important things to do on the car.
I e-mailed Scorpion to ask them if they can supply the link pipes for the 2-piece system seperately, but like a lot of suppliers, they haven't had the courtesy to reply. :(
scorpion don't seem to reply mate had that problem before, order and ask any questions through motech winkeye

Thanks for the heads-up Dude. :thumb:
I'd have been well hacked-off if I'd have tried to fit it on a Saturday afternoon without that info.
This is why I no longer drive an E30......

Just to add my 2p-worth, regarding Powerflow.
They're franchised, which makes them a bit variable. If the chap building the system knows what he's doing and gives a damn about doing it right, you'll get a good system. If not, lots of grief.
My local Powerflow dealer is Welsh Coast Customs in Newport and they do try, even on the cheap jobs. I and a friend have both taken cars with ill-fitting, leaking or broken exhausts (not Powerflow) to them and got a quick, cheap and sturdy repair.

Should have added that the system is 2 into 1 and ends with a 3" rolled in tailpipe.
