Colins are the name behind Mongoose, but they arnt exhaust manufacturers! Blueflame produce them on their behalf!

Only difference is the flange fit compared to the slide in design. ( copyrights etc...)

collins have been about for years blueflame five minutes, but anyway why would blue flame make all the exhausts differently? mongoose are good quality blueflame are crap in comparison. just find it odd its not if blueflame are cheaper than other makes.

Have you looked at there site? How come they make for TVR, DUBSPORT, FORGE MOTORSPORT, PARAMONT ( JAGUAR ) etc.........

And they have probabley been in business longer than collins..........

Oh and they have to make them different due to copyrights!

Does it really matter about who's best? It's what suits peoples needs /preferences more doesnt it??

Damo I've been in touch with them aswell, took 4 days to get a reply and they avoided every technical question I asked, sticking with the Magnex now anyway.
