Okay, sorry but none of this PSE tricky malarky for me.

2.5 1998 Boxster, 1 exhaust on it's way south (sounds like someone’s wedged a foil sweet wrapper up there).

How many of the hard earned I'm I about to have to shell out?

Any ideas what I should look at to replace it with?

you sure it's the pipe that's gone and not a heat shield?

fairly surprised seeing as they're made for decent quality steel

Never had to buy one when I had my Boxster, but I think you can get a Janspeed one for £450ish I think.....

Not sure how that'll compare to a standard system

Yeah there is a common fault with the bolts on the Heat Sheild or something? I had that problem which was easily fixed by Autostrasse...

Could well be the heat shield what has losened off again, it's just it is a different noise to that which it made the last time which made me fear the worst.

Still booked in with Matt at Autowerke if I can sort out the lift back from town.

You know what it's like though when something isn't quite right. Everything seems to pot (is it pulling to the left a little, I'm sure it feels a little down on power today, is the right rear shock a little soft? Did I just feel a little clutch slip then.) Arrr I hate it when things aren't 100%
