As my other post states, I have recently bought this car.

I had the silencer off today and spent the day cleaning and polishing it with the intention of doing with out the black heat shield. During my day I noticed that the packing is loose in the silencer, I estimate about a quarter of the packing is gone due to the movement that can be felt. This silencer is not repackable and I have discovered that the current part number that is fitted to R300/400/500 is - http://caterhamparts.co.uk/product.php?id_product=... which replaces the one on my car and the current one is repackable.

My question is, is this the best choice of silencer? I am not willing to spend a fortune so while the Raceco Titanium one is nice it's £670 and I am not going to notice 2-3kgs!!!

Are there any other good direct replacement silencers out there?

Thanks
