    My exhaust come to just over £350 delivered about the middle of last year when the pound was doing well against the dollar. £283 seems a good price if you can get it for that.

    Go for a good 100 cell race cat and you should pass the emmisions test if your car is up to scratch.

    If you get them to mark it as 'customer warranty return' you shouldnt get hit for customs,
    either that or 'trade sample' is another way.
    How do you work it out to 283 quid all in,
    At that price id be very interested myself.
    Any chance of a discount for a couple of systems and joint shipping?

    I got hammered when importing my turbo.
    Problem is they charge on the shipped price too (robbing bastids I know) they also charge like 33% over all cost.
    I was charged £187 for a $1250 turbo and manifold

    No arguing with them either.....I tried appealing it as second hand items etc etc and still no joy on the price.

    I mailed OBX about making a full 3" system too, I am yet to hear anything back from them.
    I do have someone living in the US so maybe I can get it that way instead Might have to pay double postage over all but nothing compared to getting hit with import duty!

    the ferrita like all of the other off the shelf exhaust are all cat back though (whereas the OBX is a full turbo back system).. unless you pair it with a ferrita downpipe which is around £600 on it's own! lol!..
