Cheers mate,

I used them a few years ago when I split the centre silencer on my Cossie open and they replaced it with just a straight piece. The welds were awful on it and it leaked so had to have it done again elsewhere.

Cheers anyway though

It was meant to be dropped off with Mike today, paid to have my car dropped there today, turned up and he wasn't there despite him assuring me he would be there on Saturday. Just got told to leave it with some random guy in the end unit. Yeah righto.

He offered to drop money off my bill for the exhaust but to be honest, it hasn't given me a good first impression so would rather go elsewhere. Not impressed.

Cheers anyway Mark.

They're probably a little further than you'd like, but local enough to be worth the trip as it's not like the other end of the country (about 50 miles), but I can highly recommend JC Weldfab in Wellingborough. They made an exhaust for a B7 Audi RS4 Avant on a customer of ours (the previous owner had it made) and it's awesome. One of the best custom exhaust systems I've ever seen. You won't be disappointed.

When EMP in st.albans used to be top gear, they did the exhaust on my Fiesta ST turbo. As I was in the office paying I heard it rag off down London road hitting the limiter. Not sure if its the same people now but if it is I'd never go back there..

Cheers for all your suggestions/recommendations guys

I spoke to Mike earlier and he was very apologetic about what happened and he's assured me that he will definitely be there tomorrow if I get the car dropped there so and a few of my mates have said to give him another chance as it's not like him to do that so the car is getting dropped off tomorrow.

Cheers anyway guys

Avoid avoid avoid! They are beyond hopeless for anything greater than nailing a back box on your first car. Will post the pics later of their centre silencer delete on my car.
