You want the best header get a hytech. But they are expensive. I paid £900 2nd hand.
Then a mugen twin loop converted to 2.5".

But get a custom system imo.

where you be in suffolk/norfolk? there is meant to be a limit but i think it maybe an ASBO sort of law as apposed to a road law. i think JDM ones are aloud a higher DB level aswell :idea:

Might have to check it out! ive got a japspeed manifold and downpipe on it at the minute... and it does sound quite nice. But i want a REAL exhaust system for it, not a cheap one like it currently has.
