Have any PHers used Stainless Creations in Falkirk for exhaust work? They promote themselves as doing a lot of work on MR2s and Porsche 968s …

Just wondering if anyone has any opinions on them, I’m in need of a bit of work on my 944 Turbo and if they do have a lot of 968 experience, that’d stand them in good stead.

No but I know a lot of guys that have used Billy at what is now CAS in Shotts, formerly Free Flow in Bathgate. He's been doing custom stainless stuff for years now but not specific to one vehicle type.

That’s interesting, because I take my car to Motortune in Shotts for everything else. Might be worth a look.

Ive used stainless creations for 3 cars so far and love his work.

never had an issue with any of the systems and ill use them for the ute when i get a chance.

They actually do alot for Mr2's as im sure they both owned a few and it might be graydon that had the v8 porker.

I was in the other week for a look and chat and I have to say the quality of his work looked very very good he was doing some work on a Skyline and I was well impressed.

I've used them for my Landrover, Rangerover and also my Audi. Excellent work every time and reasonable price.

Thanks everyone. I’ve had good reports from the guys in the Porsche Club as well. I’m waiting for a price from Stainless Creations now, to see how it stacks up against buying a JanSpeed off the shelf.

I can highly recommend Stainless Creations. I have used, and currently use, them for a number of things - tyres, exhausts and any other stainless custom work needed.
Graydon's work is spot on!

They have worked on my Ibiza Cupra R when I had it, and all three of my MR2's.

One of very few places/people I'd leave my car for work.

Okay, I’m convinced. Booked in with them for a couple of weeks’ time. 3" straight through from the cat back. Single muffler.

I got a cat back system from Graydon for my Saxo about 4 years ago.
He did the whole job for less than I could source a standard replacement.

Was very happy with everything.

Good to hear you're happy with your system Alistair has always done really good work for me and it's always nice when recommendations work out ok. Did you see the picture of my Landy with big tyres on his wall?

Hopefully we will hear your motor on one of the runs soon.

I did see the Landy photo, very nice.

I think my car will be joining it on the wall soon enough—the guys did say that they’d never had a 944 Turbo in to work on before (only S2s and 968s).

I was invited for a ride around Knockhill in their over-the-top MR2 sometime, which sounds like loads of fun.

A friend of mine has another MR2 turbo that they were/are involved in.
Bit bloody mental.

Here’s what they built for me: 3" straight through from the point where the wastegate gases are flowed back into the main exhaust.

Are you sayin’ my car needs a wash? wink

It’s having vented fibreglass front wings fitted and painted in the next couple of weeks, and having a serious clean and detail at the same time!

It’s been murder having it off the road just as the fun season kicks off … I was planning on going to the Yorkshire big breakfast at Malton this weekend, but the car ain’t ready yet.

Had work done on my evo at stainless creations. First class workmanship, would highly recommend.
Heard that they have built a crazy horsepower mr2 turbo. Graydon said they would be at knockhill on thursday the 15th april at the Livingston Autoparts Open pit lane trackday for testing.
you can find out more info about the day by phoning Graydon at Stainless Creations on 01324 622832
or by checking out http://www.livingstonautoparts.co.uk if you fancy going along to spectate or register.

Cant wait to see this go!!!
