Hi Kev,

ACT or Penninsula are the best and the most reasonable for exhausts at circa £380.

However, I will hopefully soon be able to offer these myself at a cost of around £225ish inc VAT. These are high grade stainless and made to order for V6 only at the moment.

Fuel tanks I'm lookng into but I should be able to offer one of these in aluminium at a price of £200ish, I think the usual price from specialists for stainless is around £500-600.

This won't be until after Xmas now though.

Blueflame for the exhaust.

Cant recommend them highly enough.

For V6S and V8S, I thought they were bike systems only or self assembly (pipe sections mated to silencers etc)?

[Gaffer]

Nope. They do custom exhausts. Made one for my Vitara.

When I was there, in the workshop was a volvo estate, a range rover and a fiesta.

Do you build exhaust systems for the S Kentish ??

I've got some sort of (expensive) optional exhaust system, with extra mufflers and a double end at the right side of the S... Guess the first owner thought it was too loud.. Now I'm looking for a st. st. sport exhaust system with the pipes straight through under the mid of the car.

Steve Reid will do you a stainless tank advertise around £340.00 but i think mine was around the £400.00 mark. Also do stainless exhausts, see Sprint advert for details.

Niels,

Yes, in conjunction with a specialist stainless steel welder.

The system are high quality and you can have customisations if required.

Sounds good. Is there anyone on this forum (suppose you have one yourself) that allready had this exhaust?

I think you will find the prices have gone up as when I called a few months ago I was told £550? If you find out any difference Jim I would love to know as I am looking to buy a new tank myself I will probably go for an aluminium one same as Kevin.

Later
