looking at replacing the normal exhaust with a straight through exhaust.
is it easy to do this at home, and what sought of price will i be looking at.
been considering making it into a side exit exhaust as well, will this be an easy job as well, and will it affect insurance etc.

cheers

Thats my side exit i made, but i did put a small box in it, not sure what its off but its tiny, is far too loud i think without one. Did drive it for 2 week with no boxes and it got on my tits. That was pretty easy to make, the 2 90 degree bends to dring it over the chassis legs were the hardest to do to get it right, o and the mounting bracket, but once it was lined up it were fine, if your good at measuring, cutting and welding you'll be fine to do it on the drive, just tack it all section at a time first when making it so its easy to move bits etc. Its a ball ache keep fitting it and tking off then trying it again, but if you want it right its worth it.

i was looking for one behind the rear left wheel arch.
i saw on another persons topic that they had used what appears to be a flexi metal pipe. is this a feasable means of doing it, as it looks alot easier to do.
