a bit pointless is it not.....
why 'burn' an exhaust in such a manner that would hardly do anything to it.
waste of a match and petrol by the looks of it

Went and got a custom box made up for Dad's car this morning at Custom Chrome in Nuneaton, chatting to the boss and he was telling me about the PF abortions they've had to fix, including one exhaust that had a hanging bracket welded to the propshaft on the car
Apparently made quite a mess when they'd started the engine.

reminds me of a scooby at a local cruise. He kept of throwing flames out the back for 10-20 mins, then eventually the whole can and tip was glowing bright red. Stupid, but funny (... ohh and v. loud)

35mph is the limiter in 2nd? 
And anyway, I had somewhere to be, there was a purpose of driving down the road. Burning the exhaust means badgers will die for no reason

remember Powerflow are a Franchise - each one has a different owner and way of business - the two Ive dealt with were excellent and quality was very good
but both were reputable family run firms with long histories before buying the franchise
but saying that I've seen abominabal work from a few that were within 45 mins of the two which were good
speak to local people with experience before using them

I'm not happy with the Powerflow system on my Astra any more, I swear it's blowing again...  I've already taken it back to them several times in the past to be 'looked at'...
I think I may do some research and purchase a new better stainless steel exhaust to be honest. Might do so after I've sorted out a couple of engine issues.
