was thinking of getting an exhaust instead of standard, especially as ive seen them on fleabay for £180 cat back fitted (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PROFLOW-STAINLESS-EXHAUST-SYSTEM-PEUGEOT-206-GTI-/180666676123?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2a1092b39b#ht_3586wt_930). So i saw one in our town (Boston), and although they were Powerflow, i imagined they would be of a similar price.Shocked i was when the guy said £400 fitted cat back
Now then, is there a hugh difference between these exhausts, enough to warrant £220 more, or were they just trying to rip me off??
Its a 2hour journey to where proflow are fitted from me, and im sure i wont be using £220 worth of fuel
any advice most welcome

2hr journey won't be 220 in fuel!
I can drive to cumbria (4hrs and use 3/4 tank of fuel) that costs about £37

If proflow is a stainless steel system then go for it!
Alot of people buy either power flow or long life systems for its lifetime guarentee(as long as you are the owner of the vehicle)
I have a power flow backbox and it makes a lovely sound compairing to the standard one i had on and I haven't noticed an increase in horses(if any)
