I'm gonna give it a miss cos i don't like the wonky pipe. Tempting, but I'd rather spend a bit extra and get what i want...otherwise It'll bug me to shit..

:D Hiya Doc. Real thanks for the head. Gave it a bit of a clean up and banged it on. Fired up 1st time and it`s running superb, no surges or hiccups in sight!!
Rapping on about exhausts. I seen one for a valver at a specialists in Bolton, all in 18/8 stainless. The front and mid pipes were the same as standard but the cross box must have had a splitter in it, coz it had a tail pipe out of each side, with the large silencers replaced by peanut (bike) types, Oh and they were kinked about 150mm from the end, so they pointed out straight.
Might ave a go at making one for the diesel.... just for fun like!!! :P
72... AND STILL ROCKIN..........around the world...... NOT in a chair yet

No worries at all mate, like I said, it wasn't doing much here excpet giving the weeds something to cling to!

Actually, the ONLY reason I removed the N/A from the red car and fitted a TD was so fitting the big bore exhaust was easier!
It kinda made sense at the time....
Sounds shit on the diesel, but looks the bollocks!
