As long as theres no blows i doubt they will say anything about unless they are in a really bad mood..

Why shouldn't it? My Celica has a flexi section as standard...

as above.

where areyou planning to get the stuff from?? you could try a hgv spares place like David Huggets. trucks & vans often use flexi pipes & you can get standard pipe lengths off the shelf.

Thanks for the info, i got it in my head that flexi's were MOT failures.

I've got to get a 3 to 2 inch reducer, then a 2 inch flexi. I've seen a few on egay but i'm not sure how good they are.
