Very good place, I had my exhaust made up for the saloon there. Lee still goes on about the quality and makes everyone get under to take a look at the welding lol

Bit expensive for a rear box though... tbh you may as well just buy second hand on here or fleabay and fit it yourself. And cherry bombs sound GAY

got ratty old nabours to piss off. so the popping will be rather fun lol (in no way do i condone pissing your nabours off, but when they cover your pride and joy in plaster, and then smash a window playing football in a culdisac i think it gives enough joy for pay back :wtf: )

tis what i was expecting from martin to be honnest hes never been the cheepest, hes just got the quality (i like quality)

ashley competition systems are good quality for the price you pay for them but you fit them yourself unless you know someone who will do it for you:thumb:

ooooo sounds tempting, i did try to loan out a tractor thing from a mates dad, but as soon as i said why he refused to, somthing along the lines of noise pollution.. was rather miffed at that

too noisy, and sounds like a wet fart, my sister had one years ago on a 1 litre polo!

random info alert.... cherry bombs are named after an american firework that was round, cherry red, very loud and banned due to hundreds of injuries

I had one on my first Nova for a couple of weeks, it was my initiation into Nova ownage. It'd been on all of my mates' Novas by then and was certainly a bit worse for wear.

If you're serious, I don't think you should get a Cherry Bomb. Your best bet IMO is to go to Welsh Coast Customs. Gareth is AMAZING!

are they good value etc? i need a small ish exhaust for the saloon. cant afford it right now tbh but il need to sort one asap...

theyre on ebay for about 40 quid delivered.

shouldnt be too loud on a k plate 1.4 with the centre box and cat should it? until its gone throught an mot anyways... then the cat suddenly goes missing... lol

lol, i said that when i put the 2 litre in

left the cat and centre box on with a backbox that was already on, you could hardly hear it with the 1.2, this is so loud i've got some exhaust wadding and plan to take a grinder/welder to it if its loud when driving

Nebbz

Technically any exhaust thats louder than standard is illegal as it could/should fail an MOT

I would get infinity to make you up a whole system s/steel with a proper back box. Or just go for the off the shelf Ashley Competition item, it would be cheaper.

I had my system made by Infinity and they did a top job, making the system exactly as I had asked.

on a SKI would it be too loud?

i've got one on my 1.2 at the minute, rest of the system is standard. sounds nice when playing down back lanes and pootling thru town (carbed, so burps and farts to order lol) but gets very irritating on motorways (very droney in car)

all depends on what you like, my nova is a second car so it doesnt bother me too much
