Sports exhaust

[shaungriff1]

Hi all, I’ve got a 2004 monaro cv8 with the original exhaust that exits on the left rear. It’s far too quiet so I’m looking to buy a replacement. The only place near me (leicester) is a powerflow agent who have quoted £799 to make up a cstainless cat back system but I’ve read a few bad things about them online ! I’ve tried searching for ready made up exhausts online but hardly any companies come up in this country. Any advice please ? Thanks Shaun

Thanks for replies, I’ve looked on magnaflow site & they list one for Pontiac GTO which is the same ?? The list price is £1050 but the same system is on summit racing for £726 ! Just need to be 100% sure the Pontiac GTO 2004 is the same ? Thanks shaun

Just realised there’s £245 postage to go top 😢

Anyone used Peterborough Longlife exhausts ? They rang me today quoting £600 +vat to make & fit a stainless cat back system ? Shaun

Thanks but I’m in leicester so Peterborough is my limit really as gotta leave it with them if I decide to go there

Thanks for that ade. It would be nice to see some exhaust the branch in leicester has made as they have some bad reviews online. I think it sounds like I’d be best buying a factory made system even tho they cost a bit extra as reading some of the reviews for some of these places is scary !

I’ve never been totally happy with any Powerflow stuff.
On my CV8 I have a Borla with uprated cats and it’s very nice loud when on it, quiet at cruise and quite mellow still, some I hear sound quite harsh.

Where did you buy the borla exhaust from ?

Sorry prob should have said, it’s been on the car since 2005, before I owned it. It was supplied and fitted along with some other mods by a company that no longer exists. My service history starts with these guys then moves to Monkfish
I guess if nothing else it proves they last well. If you can find one

I rang memesis today & they’ve ordered me a borla cat back system

Nice work! I’ve just come back from an hour long aimless burble about in mine. Exhaust was popping and crackling quite a bit more than usual tonight! Maybe as it’s cold out. Sounded great in the narrow old streets of Norwich.....happy days!

Nice one ! Can’t wait til mine gets delivered & fitted
