I personally don't rate Poweflow in the slightest. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that they are shite.
I had one fitted to my Astra when I dropped the V6 in it about 2 years ago. It blows like a mofo, brackets have broken, there's holes now in the seams. Baffles have gone and the grade of stainless they use is utter crap, it looks more like scaffold bar.
As soon as I have some spare wedge, it's going in the bin.
If you are in Eastborne, then I'd get you're ass down to Stealth Systems in Southampton.
Fantastic build quality, welds are impressive and the material they use is top notch.
They do all the high powered Jap crap down there. Install nitrous, the lot.
I would steer clear of powerflow at all costs. The tubing they use is basically steel with a stainless coating.
Stealth are not a great deal more, and you'll get a far nicer exhaust. Well worth it.

Powerflow are fine if you specify you want grade 304 stainless. Also bare in mind they are a franchise (sp) so no 2 branches are the same

defeating the object of getting a stainless exhaust though.
like i say had one on my primera and the pipework was rusting in 9 months. also you have to have it inspected every year by powerflow within 14 days of that year to keep the guarantee in order.
don't get me wrong the exhaust i had was fine i just think you could get a better product for your money.
