Shipping from UK may kill the deal. Go to another muffler shop and show them this pic.

Shipping in my experience for that weight and size would be about 50$. Based on previous stuff I have sent.

But I wouldnt sell it to you though.

I know they have done similar for international owners clubs so I am sure though that if there were enough people the guy would set up a jig and produce a run of them. Then bulk ship them over. But that would be between whoever was interested and the shop.

Nothing to do with me but I agree with Le Mans, thats what I'd do in your place.

The whole thing including install cost me 120 quid.

I dont know how much for the pipe itself.

If its something a few of you are interested in I can ask the guy to give a rough price to see if your interested but it will depend on numbers. If its a one off I guess about 70 quid.

But as I said before I really cant see why you cant find a guy over there that could do it based on the photos of this one and others on the forum. As long as he has a good knowledge of the principles of an exhaust system.

In respect military contacts I left the mob myself a long time ago so any guys I did know I have not been in contact with for a long time.

Thats a nice install.

I get a lot of popping when accelerating and rasping when cold from my X-Pipe, (magnaflow) you say you dont get none at all is that right?

Anychance you can post a sound clip?

Thanks


Absolutely not no rasping no popping no resonance just a deep growl. I am very pleased with it.

I would post a sound clip but I wouldnt know where to start if you do let me know.

Good looking x pipe and install. Mine looks just like yours ( but not as good looking) and it was also made from some exhaust kind of pro guys.
