Said the same for my tailpipe Ian but it's deffo a bit lumpy in the mid range hence my dyno thread. Hopefully it'll be ok Thumbs Up

i researched it quite in depth tel, re different makes etc, the jardine pipes actually give better mpg and performance

have a look at the end of the pipes bh, is there a circlip or 4 rivets ?, either there easy to take out, unlike mine that were welded in, plus the pipes are 1500 quid if it went wrong so i didnt risk it, but if there clipped or riveted its easy to try, but  would google the question first....
