I can't believe you could be registered on here for over 3 years and you're asking stupid questions about where to buy an exhaust from.
If you want a price on a custom exhaust, contact the people that MAKE the custom exhaust FFS.
Why are you people so stupid?
FAO Admin - this is not a personal attack, it's aimed at a number of people on here.
Purhaps I have had no need for a new exhaust until now ffs people are so unhelpful.
This is the help section I need a site that sells backbox's so I come and ask people that know.
Whats the point in searching through magazines etc when I can ask a question, as many people have done this.
So in other words SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU TWAT
If you're already that fucking aware that others have asked the same, then didn't your tiny fucking mind consider for just one second that you might be able to find the answers yourself by doing a search on here?
It's not a case of being unhelpful, it's about educating people to help themselves and stop being so ignorant.

Fair enough, I just don't see the point in your reply as I need a new exhaust and I can't be bothered to buy shitty magazines or use the search button when people on here know straight away.

ASCAR r a bunch of wankers to put it blunt.
In there adverts they say they can make an exhaust to the spec u want an make it sound just as u like.
Im runnin a 2L 16v conversion on a corsa,took to them they said straight through wud be best.
Already had the magnex system on from my old GSI engine but it sounded bit RASPY an didnt want it any louder,mentioned this they said no prob to get rid of the RASP and keep it as quiet.
After fittin it is as loud as dont now what a the RASP is 10 times worse.
Took bac they said nowt they can do that was that.
When mentioned what it said in there advert an what they said they cud do before fittin it, they told me that if they had basically told me how it wud actually sound then me an prob many others wudnt hav them fitted, in it was bad 4business.
He got very big headed bout the company sayin they were the best and walked off with shoulders up like sum kind of body builder.
Not to mention it also say in there advert that u get 30yr guarantee but on reciept it say 25,i now 25 is stil loads but stil says one thing then they say another.
Just be careful and watch out,once they got it on ya car an got ya money they dont want to no.

You mean a tunable note, like a piano?
You could get everyone on CS to have a different note at a meet, and play a tune.

I think any difference would be minimal on a 1.2 8v, same as the difference between cat/decat.
