	the good stuff.... racingdave came and took the estate away today to fit my exhaust-it sounds bloody marvellous! cheers matey! he kindly took a "during" pic for me... and heres what it looks like at the moment... just as discreet as id hoped for! :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: gotta love a 4 branch now the not so good... one clamp wont go on-too close to the gearbox crossmember so I'm heading down to the factors tomorrow to have a gander at the ones they have-hopefully ill get something close to whats needed! (if i cant get one ill be ringing our friendly neighbourhood kermit owner for advice! :lol: ) and the gaskets i was supplied are 75% wrong-it seems they're different depending on which branch they're intended for :blink: oh and i have a puncture so its on 3 17" rims and a 13" ghia rim til saturday cheers again to dave for crawling round on the concrete on my behalf!

	Where did you get your system from? I'm after a full system for my Capri 2.0S Mark 3. Only system ive found so far is from the Capri club. 2 inch mild steel in black with 2 or 3 inch chrome tailpipe (I'll stick with the 2 inch) and a 4 branch manifold with gaskets. £250 Do you know of anywhere cheaper or a better system for around the same dosh?

I ordered mine through auto pit stop in coventry 138 JUBILEE CRESCENT COVENTRY CV6 3ES 024 7659 8222 give them a bell and see what they say-i can always collect it for you if you order it and pay by card over the phone I THINK they got it from demon tweeks though (www.demon-tweeks.co.uk) but don't hold me to that.
