No, I'm not joining the anti-Powerflow crew, I think I can safely say that I speak from experience, given that the pics in that link are of my own exhaust!

Seriously though, ive seen the pics and it is shocking but powerflow are a franchise (sp) so dont tar all outlets with the same brush. Ive had mine done almost a year and its a 100% top job that i cant fault what so ever Although i would always advice specifing you want grade 304 steel like i did

If I'd have known this (or been advised by the garage), I would have specified grade-304 not the standard grade-409 that Powerflow supply their pipework with......little bit late now, I'm still trying to decide whether to take the garage to Small Claims Court, but want a bit more info on the proceedings first.
To cut a very long story short, I ordered and paid for a stainless-steel exhaust, what I got was definitely not "stainless" (no matter what the chemistry says), I'm not happy......it's whether the JP (or whoever presides over Small Claims Court session) agrees. And it's a lot of money to "gamble" on getting someone that would agree.

I'm sure most outlets are decent......and I was fine with this one until I made the first enquiry about the rust, only for it to be shoved back in my face saying the guarantee doesn't cover rust......had the same reaction from Powerflow themselves. And Trading Standards' letter to the garage pretty much had the reaction of being told where to shove their letter.
So you can understand me not being a massive fan of Powerflow, and especially of the garage I bought the exhaust through...

lol please take peco and rage of the polling list
I agree custom is very good, i got mine done by Ascar and i love it, fantastic build
However for off the shelf stuff, BTB, Magnex, Scorpion and Serbring are all top quality stuff

my powerflow exhaust has gone wonky in the last month, and now rattles loads since last week, especiall on idle which is really annoying! I,m gonna ring them next week and see if they will fix it for free.
