no exhaust here, I made my own. Go to Dover Castle. It's great down in the tunnels.

I used bits of straight pipe and four plastic silencers bought from ebay for £70 for the four. Assorted bends and some cutting and shutting and a twin pipe system was born.

When I fitted the samuri exhaust I was told by the exhaust company that they no longer stocked the tube and if I went down to the local motor factors and asked to look though there old parts bins (where they put all the out of date stock or stuff that lost it's ID bar code so it's difficult for them to price)I might have some luck there. I looked for any pipe which looked about the same size as the escort manifold outlet and then welded my own up to fit.

if you want a trick exhaust, try a company called powerflow exhausts. they make custom stainless steel systems to fit anything, and i mean anything. quite pricey tho but worth it for a system that will last

I'd agree with that. I had one built onto an Alfa some years ago. sounded great and actually cost less than an off the shelf item (cos Alfa parts are so expensive!) and was guaranteed.
They were relatively new in the country then and I think the cost has gone up considerably but that was over £400 8 years ago - ish.
