Whilst my exhaust is off the car I'm trying to decide what to do with it?

The exhaust doesn't sound good almost like a ringing noise so thought about this mod but I've been quoted a min of £60 each way to post it to Central TVR so the cost inc vat would be near the £300 mark.

Now ACT do a new SS exhaust for approx £587 but then I don't have the space or the inclination to keep the old exhaust and feel that it's a little wasteful just to throw the old one away.Plus I could do with saving my well earned for other necessities to finish off my restoration.

There is a SS fabricators not far from me but they have quoted approx £250 but that is dependent on if they have the right diameter tubing in stock to replace the baffles and I don't know what size I need or if they would do a decent job.

So what should I do ????

Chris, can you post a couple of pics please. Need to see if it is 'standard' and whether the damage is in the usual places!
Hi Richard it is the standard S3 exhaust like this one on fleabay

Would this be the post you were thinking of ?

Thanks chaps for all the options and offers of help.

Decided to purchase the advertised replacement exhaust for as very reasonable price, I just hope that it doesn't sound like my old one.

If nothing else I will have a good stock of SS for Mike for his never ending quest to have everything shiny rofl

Maybe I could start another topic for suggestions on what to make with an old SS exhaust and down pipes
