You could see if JP in Macc do one.

I know they do a Cerbera set 'cos I had one. Otherwise perhaps a word with Joolz might help you out.

BTW if JP do one and you come over to look, drop me a line so I can have a drool

Cheers,
Rob

Strange as it sounds you may be able to get Tim Lamont at ACT to get bits from JP cheaper than they'll sell to you direct . Give him a ring.

does anybody know what the difference is between a "sports" exhaust and a standard exhaust without baffles? apart from the £400 odd squids of course

I assume a "sports exhaust" means you are buying the pipes whereas a conversion simply opens up the silencer and removes some wadding. Rich...

I had JP manifolds and Y-piece (to match the sports exhaust already on) fitted at JP - very impressed with the quality of the stuff they do. If you phone them, ask for 'Tricky' (Richard), he's the guy that makes them to order.
They can build in varying degrees of unsilencing, if that's the right word - think mines near the Guns'n'Roses end of the scale. Hasn't affected me though. Pardon?
Also try Steve Reid in Warrington - he can supply the same stuff cheaper 'cos he buys in bulk.

Edited to say from what JP told me, they can do a standard exhaust, one with standard size silencers in but without wadding, one with smaller boxes, or one with straight-thru tubes inside the silencers instead of perforated normal ones (LOUD). Or something. Can't remember all the options, but they'll go as quiet or as loud as you want. Enjoy!
