what exhaust's are people running on there v70's and why did you choose it?

as far as i can see the options are ferrita, jetex or ipd? am i missing any others

better of going down the custom route than aftermarket stuff. if a 3" down pipe with sports cat floats your boat i might be able to help you out with some realistic prices

Ye pop to the likes of powerflow or blueflame and go custom.
3" dp and you will notice some good responsive gains!

me personly i wouldnt recomend powerflow. id only use a garage that will tig weld the full system and use's mandrel bends. crush bend look chod and arnt the best flowing. thats just my opinion though. but you get what you pay for

Mine was mandrel bent....
If your on bout using universal ready made bends and welding them in. That just looks botch as ££££

Used blue flame when I had a system made for my 944. Good sound. No real gain on that car, not too tidy at the back box and very pricy for a NA car at £600! Not that impressed overall. Anyone used them for an R?

We've got a ferrita on our S60R, which we're really pleased with. If your feeling flush you could look at a TME system.

power flow dont use mandrel benders. post some pics of the bends on your system and prove me wrong. they use crush bends. im no talking about off the shelf bends but a mandrel bender is a machine that wont deform the pipe when its bent. these machines start from about £24k upwards in to 5 figures. you can get a cheap exhaust bender for 5k. itll bend the pipe and make systems but i wouldnt buy it and sell poor quality systems.
