’longlife’ custom exhausts

[Clio16vPaul]

My standard centre section refuses to mate up with the magnex back box, keeps blowing and coming loose, anybody had a custom pipe made up by longlife (or similar companys) im looking for a strait through pipe cat - backbox and i need it quick!! whats the usual waiting time for them to make one??

Not sure where exactly but there a longlie place in bristol which isnt to far from me, just want it sorted quick....

use longlife

they use real stainless steal and its tig welded, most powerflow places use cheap sh*t which is why there supposed stainless steel actually rusts

ive got a long life system on mine and its faultless, the welds are spot on, no rusting, great service

cant recomend them enough

 

[Clio16vPaul]

how long did it take them to make it??

considering i only want a bit of pipe really it shouldnt take them to long?

 

[Mike Wright]

Yep! My local Powerflow centre is crap, the weldings appaling, cheap grade ss and overall a crap service!!!!!!!!!!!

took my mate a day to have a full sytem exhaust made form longlife on his rs turbo

Use Longlife i had my old clio done they had it for half a day they are also going to do my new exhaust for me and they want it for a day they are the best

they did my system in about 2 hours start to finish and were talking off the downpipe, center section into a bend, then up and over the torsion bar, into a y piece then to 2 cans.

fairly complicated but the guy was the bollox

i reckong your looking at max of an hour

just weighin up what im going to do as need new exhaust.

cheers

i had the same prob with my piper back box it wouldnt fit to the standard center section so i ended up forkin out £££ for a piper center pipe

 

[Clio16vPaul]

they sent me a quote for £289 to make a basic full pipe, hence my other thread about the devil pipe!!! thats more than a new magnex or any other, get what you pay for though i spose.

 

[CS_Matt]

pete i went to the place in wallington, got a mate who worked there so got it cheap

i know longlife aint cheap tho

but like mentioned above u get what u pay for

I agree with smoothed clio the longlife stainless steel exhausts (powerflow)are the best.I have one on my clio and I have had no problem with it.
