£1,020.

My car has not been built on a budget, however I can't justify anything over £500

Like I say, top work and you get what you pay for I guess.

picked my pipes back up today , they put a weld round the lip

also got my studs back from from being machined down but i measured them wrong so need to get some open ended nuts , (will order them tonight)

, tool i used to remove the old ones

cleaned out the old threads

and fitted the new ones with the 2 nut method

also heat wraped this pipe

had to make sure i didnt put them in to far n the back as it hit on the handbreak mech

and all the old ones i removed, these are actulary new to me and never seen the road

Just thinking of a even coverage and not sure if the tight bends on the mani will kink the 2" or not?

was ok doing the bends on mine , but on a minifold i would use the 1 inch stuff as i can imagian it will be tricky ,
