Yes they are good! (and bad!_
In my experience, it's not powerflow as whole, it's particular dealerships due to franchise arrangements.... some are good, some are bad

If you are in the south east go to the london longlife. They use the high quality 304 grade stainless throughout, so dont surface rust like powerflow do. Me and trotty both got longlife systems and they are quality.

i've had 3 powerflow exhausts done. i chose to use powerflow because they were the only exhausts that are custom made around my area. the first experience was good at first but after a few months turned shit because of crappy welding. the 2nd one is a top notch job. the one what i have now is a top notch job. no complaints at all.
basically as said before, choose the right powerflow dealer. some can be dodgy and provide a shit job and service. others will provide a decent job and will be able to do anything you want to do with the exhausts.

Anyone know if the Powerflow branch at Morecambe is any good? They seemed nice enough and gave me a price of £220 or full CAT back system on my 1.2 16v B. Just wondering if anyone had an experience with them?

Got a quote, for a to back system, straight through pipe to back box with a jap stle tailpipe, Cost........£295 Bit out of my price range, im only looking for around £200, so what are my next options???? go for the jap style peco, or something else (I also need this done quick as my MOT is at the end of this month!)

IMO well worth the extra 100 notes for a full decent system rather than a wank peco backbox!!

i know what your sayin, but also my car is 1.2 8v, 1 of the slowest around and i dont really see much point in getting a nice quality zorst. Hopefully want to get a new car by the end of the year. Maybe if it was a better car worth modding that would be a different story

No matter how good the fitter is the steel is still a really low quality, the welds are not covered in the warrenty, and they pressure bend the pipe, resulting in power losses.

erm hate to break it to you longlife use the same boxes and grade of stainless steel as powerflow do unless u specify otherwise. If not look under any car that has had a powerflow system done and u will notice they have longlife boxes and pies...
