I've got a Powerflow centre section on my car -- only did it cos I needed something quickly after the 2L conversion and to be honest I'm pretty happy with it... They will pretty much cater to your needs -- I actually asked for mine to be made pretty quiet and they did a nice job...

Performance wise it's fine... can't believe I'd notice the difference between any other system on an NA car...

Which Powerflow dealer are we talking about? Obviously the grade of steel you ask for and the place you actually go will affect the results...

I assume both Evisu and myself went to St Albans?

vibs, just ur usual shite answer just for a change

its just me & a few mates were talking about them & how they call themselves performance exhaust manufacturer but how can it be when they do no research or development on flow rates or dyno gains on car models as there is so many various exhaust choices to be had.

no it is not a shite answer. powerflow that I have experianced was crap. in terms of metal and workmanship. also I have seen other peoples systems and they are shite. therefore I suggest you

noise & looks exhaust manufacturer deffo. Its just pipes made up to look and sound good.

I wouldn't go to powerflow if i wanted a performance system. UNless your going to a race company who makes performance exhausts and will make you custom tailpipes, your never going to get the combination.

Looks wise yeah, may increase a few gee gee's, but its not a performance exhaust place (imo).

Just looks and sound.

by the sounds of things it depends where you go. i went to the newcastle branch and they did a spot on job of both my systems (one on my nova and the other on the corsa i have now) definately a looks and sound manufacturer though but most people dont choose them for their performance.
