i know, it is a shame. best bit is that none of it cost me anything other than the flexi and the rear box. so the whole thing cost me about £75 ;)
you can kinda see the backbox from the back of the car though, so its not too bad!

Good stuff there mate that looks a good system, what kinda material thickness did you go for on the stainless.

Not sure on material thickness, whatever dairy grade pipe is!!! I would gues about 1-2mm

Looks good, I wouldnt have crossed it over at the back but, mine performed a lot better without that bit and a short pipe after the axle bend.

I went for that setup to utilise both hangers otherwise the exhaust flapped about too much. Also had no silencer at all so to get a silencer in and doing that was the best way I could do it. Wanted looks as well as function, I'm only going tdo4 on a stock engine so I'm sure it will be fine for my setup :) its flanged at the rear box so can just make another flange and have it straight out if I felt like it was restricting anything ;)

Nice looking Dunc :cool:

Presuming the "flatened" ares are to clear the prop?

The flattened areas are to clear the floor as ground clearance was my no.1 concern. Didn't want it hanging too low and scraping everything! Only hangs a bit lower than the stock exhaust that way :)
