Exhaust is custom made, lowering springs are Eibach Pro 40MM

Welcome, I'm from Sunderland aswell.

**bhalay207**

Nice. I have some eibachs on my watch list.

What's the cost of a custom exhaust? I take it the sound of a derv doesn't give much in the way of noise? I take it the black panel around the exhaust is from the bi turbo?

Well me and my mate custom made it took us a while but wanted it right. The exhaust trim is cut precisely looks exactly like the bi turbo one

Ooh, do you have photos of the exhaust underneath mate? Since you're close I could end up paying you to do me one if possible?!

Awesome, then can sort something out with my mate who runs a garage and see what sort of price your looking at

Tonto · 7:th-Jan-2016, 18:11:11

Awesome mate thank you, more importantly we need to set up a north east meet on here and the Astra j Facebook page to see who is near us to come!!

Jonathaneuk · 7:th-Jan-2016, 23:17:21

Yeah well, me and my mate custom made mine with all the parts needed for the job including pipe work think it cost me about £60

Speak to him and find out a price mate, I'd prefer to keep my exhaust tip and get another matching so it's the same as biturbo one!

Jonathaneuk · 8:th-Jan-2016, 14:27:34

Cool that's originally what I wanted to do, but couldn't find another tip to match :-( I'll probably be seeing him tomorrow I'll ask

Nice one, the tips seem heard to come by mind you, I think a visit to breakers may be best bet!

I drove to Northampton and brought back a complete exhaust lol.
