Hi again,
I asked a while ago and I was only looking at getting the backbox but going to treat myself and get the full shabang.
What does the full system include? How much?
Comments wanted

I think it's a little over 300 for cat back. I have one on my 180 and they may not be the best but I liked it because I customised everything to my liking

A full stainless includes/can include the manifold. the company that does powerflow pipes round here will do a engine back exhaust system. but you are looking at some serious ££££. you really can tell the difference between between cat-back and just the backbox.

they are varied by where you go mate. The place in Cov want 190 just for a twin backbox but the place near kidderminster for example want £140. No contest there!
Best of emailing/phoning some local powerflow suppliers and compare their prices.

I thought powerflow were all the one place and so all the prices were the same, hence my confusion.

They are franchises, so prices and quality will vary where you go.
FreeFlow (CAS) in Shotts would be a good shout.

Never heard of any issues - stainless steel systems are far better over standard systems which tend to rot quite quickly with the British weather conditions.
I've got a Magnex stainless steel GTi 138 (previously Edwards) backbox fitted, no issues whatsoever.

Why increase the bore? He's not increasing the amount of exhaust gasses.
