For the last 9 months I have been secretly hoping that the (standard) exhaust on my na Exige would go, thereby justifying the expense of a 2bular.

Sadly, the exhaust has had no problems whatsoever and so, I am throwing in the towel and will be ordering my 2bular in the next few weeks (probably the 7" x 18", comments of current owners welcome) smile

I am embarrassed to confess that I leave the tinkering with the oily bits to those who do it for a living. What sort of cost can I expect to get the exhaust fitted?

Shouldn't take someone with a workshop any longer than an hour and that is being generous.

B&C charged me 1 hr labour, Jim himself says 1 to 1.5 hrs at most

My local garage(used to work there when i left school so can vouch for their work)charged me £40 to fit mine and charged £50 for a fellow SELOCer to have his Larini fitted to his S2 K smile

Again, it takes me about an hour to change an exhaust on a toyota engined car. I can't see how a garage can charge any more than that

1 hr - 1.5 hrs sounds reasonable. Anybody here got a 2bular on a na Exige? I would be interested to hear your comments on the exhaust note/sound and general impressions, particularly with the 7" x 18".

I've just ordered the 7" x 24" 2Bular (want the noise but want to be able to go on track and on the motorway regularly).

Sinclaires in Romford have quoted £75 for fitting.
