    I had to change the backbox on my car and could not get the stainless tip off the old one. I could not crack the welds and I knackered it. So I bought another but ordered the 4 inch by mistake instead of the 2.5 inch that Volvo had put on.



    Looks a bit silly but I am getting used to it now!

    all the early petrol ones are like that, the d5's point down a lot more and do not have the chrome trim.
    I must admit, the jetex ones do look a bit weird.

    I like it Graeme and all I can say is it reminds me of a scorpion system on an rs turbo
    oh, and check for sleeping cats before you start the engine.

    I think they look ugly. Prefer a straight pipe to a 'rolled type'
