I haven't got a remus. And my JP exhaust was one of the first made and my car was used as a test car for it so I got it cheap.
Remus's used to be available for £850 fitted but then went up.

Turbo back with a CAT replacement pipe at the front and a 100 Cell CAT in the middle.

tbh all turbo back exhausts for the Astra VXR are around the £800 - £1000 mark these days iirc.

intercooler i am useing to run 310hp cost...........£100, lol
also made a imprezza alloy radiator fit cos its was bigger, 14mm deeper than standard! oh and cost less then normal radiator!
2.5inch exhaust seem to be pretty reasonable! i paid 275 for the van!
soon as you go up to 3 inch bore it mad, i managed to get turbo back in 3 inch with sports cat for 475 deleived but that was second hand!

been in contact with tx autosport, top blokes there, taking the next project there to get a intercooler kit, and while im there look at there astra demo car for them.
they should be devolping a 1.9cdti intercooler kit too soon, as regal charge like £700!!
its a joke what people will pay

I actually really like the TX intercooler for the Astra and I'd rather get that than the Forge one that is 800 quid
But I don't want to go to stage 3 just yet, not until warranty is up as I don't want a Thorney cooler at a touch over 1k
