    Where can i get an exhaust?

    Where can you get aftermarket exhausts these days? Had a ferrita on another 850 few years back and quite liked it, but what else is out there?

    Thanks.

    Jetex which is the same as bsr.
    I'd say it was on par with with my ferrita noise wise, possibly less drone but I didn't have a down pipe on my v70r & I have a race cat on the t5.
    Obx are supposed to be a bit louder but I've not heard one.

    Thanks, I was thinking about a Jetex but wasn't sure whether it was a quality product.

    Someone else suggested a custom one, Hayward and Scott are relatively close and seem to get good reviews. Thanks.

    I thought you weren't planning to modify this one?

    I had mine made at a place in Henwood Ind Est, Ashford, Kent.
    They Tig and Mig welded mine in the appropriate places and the workmanship is awesome! They will tune it to your spec, loud or quiet. It's the only place I would recommend. Steve (aka Sharkey) had his exhaust tips modified by them after my recommendation. He seemed pleased enough with the result!

    Mine cost me £440 from CAT back. They even shaped the pipe so it curved away from my Haldex ECU!!
