I got an exhaust I bought myself fitted years ago by Automania in Cork, cost me E70, that was ages ago though and prob too far for you.

Want to keep the hks dragger on the car just wondering could an exhaust guy or welder guy not just get a length of pipe the same diameter and weld the gasket end on to the pipe at each end after its bent into the shape needed just asking I don't know but it sounds like a simple job in my head but there the ones that usually cost the most :cry:
