i didnt do them myself but i think they had to be extended an inch or so. wasnt anything drastic. only cost me just over £100 to have them lengthened, painted and fitted

How much did that custom exhaust cost?

The exhaust cost 450. had it done about 3 years ago now, its only a powerflow one, could get a much better system for a similar price now but nothing was availible at the time, and i wanted to be different! theres no room for a box on the left side as well so its just a straight through pipe on one side making it pretty loud!

alright mate,

car looks amazing!

love the mk6 skirts on it, how did you get them to fit?

How loud is loud? I went to powerflow around 3 weeks ago for a similar sort of job, but twin pipes both sides. Said they could fit 2 small backboxes so 1 side wasn't louder than the other, but would be quite bad still. For a very 'reasonable' estimate of £500-£600. I'm still considering it, just not if it will deafen me and everyone within a 12 mile radius.

yeah, it is pretty loud. i didnt want it loud either but didnt have much of a choice! it does sound good though, just not on the motorway!!

Beautiful, I like the orange accents, congratulations.

Does it drone badly when cruising? I reallyyyyyy don't think I could put up with it when trying to be casual.

yeah it does drone pretty bad. sounds like it needs another gear! thats why i upgraded my speakers

That's put me off a bit tbh. I can put up with a noisy bugger when i'm tanking it, but not the rest. Time will tell i suppose. Thank you for your help.
Keep up the good work.
