can now move on to my twin exhaust system. :o and face the problems this will bring.......... ???

Hey Bas, where are you splitting it? Are you taking seperate pipes from the engine or are you splitting it before the rear mufflers? I thought about splitting mine before the rear mufflers.

Going seperate pipes all the way down, yes I can fit it in the tail pipe will finish behind the back tyre to the side, I like this look from the back ( and leaves the rear open still for the spare). A couple of photo's sorry it's dark outside now but you can still see what I mean, the twin system will run down the left side of the van and will consit of 2 x Coby / grey ones and 2x Flow Master at the rear before the diff and split out to each side once over the diff, will also run a couple of X Pipes (photo attached) to balance the exhaust and to help the flow and improve the sound, have seen this set up on a v6 before, it comes close to an 8 :D

Will be doing this over the xmas break, so will set up a video on here of start up for the sound effect........

Cool, I'll look forward to it. I can't fit my spare in now due to the jag so that's not an issue for me. Think I'm going to mount it on the back wall inside the van. I thought about splitting the pipes behind the gearbox and then taking each pipe over the diff and out the back. Just ideas I'm toying with. Could put twin tips on the end of each pipe for added wank factor. Think I'm gonna buy me a new MIG too. Will see how finances shape up in the new year.

Might have to run my new exhaust system through the standard headers, don't need any power gains has enough but the better fuel would of been nice.

Ok. JP'S Proformance does them, but at $700.00, think I will stay with the Headers  >:(

Just about everywhere. They're advertised on Trademe all the time.

This guy advertises all the time...
http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts-accessories/performance/exhaust/auction-430615629.htm

I found 3 different second-hand sets last week but they're not on now.

Road & Track in the Hutt quoted me $500.00 earlier in the year for the Coby brand.

Actually the guy on Trademe who does your X-Pipe states in his auction they deal with Coby as well so why not ask him for a price.
