My iPhone says Sun, It's always right. :)


Ill be using the map that Google Maps show mate. If you use Broad St, Birmingham as the starting point, and pop the postcode for Corley Services in CV7 8NR, then you can move the pointers around to guess what time ill be there mate!

Will be leaving Broad St at around half past. :)

Joshua, My old 172Cup had the exhaust fall off...I went to Prospeed (over in Cardiff)...they made a custom stealth exhaust, which transformed the car...it sounded SO much better at full pelt...but still civilised when driving normally. Have a look in the Dealers feedback section...there are a fair few threads from others in there.

Obviously, not including the petrol costs...it was £330 (but that was about 3 years ago IIRC). He can do whatever you want and will custom make it. So you can have it cut into the exhaust, or stealth with a sound to suit you. If you want something thats a bit different, or if Charlie doesn't recommend it...he will tell you.

You get a lifetime guarantee...but it costs £25 to transfer it to a new owner if you sold the car.

i had mine custom made at a place called philbrads next to where i work in tamworth. strait through, 2.5 cat back system. cost me roughly £250. it is a stelth one but its loud lol.

£250 from TopGear Exhausts near West Bromwich.

Their exhaust guy's left now though so i'm not sure what they're turning out these days!

Lot of help with this cheers guys, think im gona have to have a listen at FCS then make a decision.
 
  421 Cammed 172
The Decats & Centre silencers make a difference too mate.

Mine got no centre silencer but has a cat and Kevs has neither IIRC.
