Hello everyone. Finally got around to doing my exhaust. All I am going to say is that its the BEST bang for bucks performance. ONLY regret is that I didnt get it done earlier.

Paul from Australian exhaust (St Marrys) did an outstanding job. I drove into his workshop just before 8am and drove out at 5:12pm. He took all day to do my exhaust and making sure it got done perfect. This guy is wealth of knowledge, start talking to him about engine and exhaust and you will know what I mean.

If anyone is thinking about doing an exhaust on their car and wants it done perfect and with care, I HIGHLY recommend Australian Exhaust to you.

Here is some pictures I took on the day.

1. Before shot

2. Stock Pipe work (this got reduced to just the one bend on each side)

3. Sitting on hoist

4. Mendral bend slowly coming together

Looks good mate, Only 1 question.. Normally when you do an exhaust, you try and get some length from the dump pipe to the Cat.. MOst performance shops will recommend this. Your cat shoulda been put further down next to the gearbox ( in my opinion and from what i been told) Otherwise nice work.

LOve those Twin shot cannons man, Awsome

Aka Did you get it done from the standard dump pipes or do you have custom ones? Also what did it cost you if you dont mind me asking? I need to get my exhaust done very soon.

I just got mine done where there was the largest cavity so it doesnt bottom out.

There are back-pressure related concerns if you get pedantic about it, the closer it is the less time it gives the exhaust to travel at full speed etc. You can get better response if you move it back, but who notices such minute detail!! hehe. And Daniel, i think you may have meant 'differential' instead of 'gearbox' buddy?

Aka, nice exhaust setup mate, NO resonators?

.
Im sure it sounds lively, enjoy it!

Hey Daniel, yes you are right in saying it should be closer. But if you look closely it is as close it can be. My digi cam is •••• so the pic doesnt show the cat properly. Its sitting just behind the gearbox as soon as the bend straightens up the factory cat location. Bit hard to see in the pic but yeah its as close as he can get it.

Other problem was the cat is a bit on the fat side so he didnt have much room to bring it any close and then push it up towards the underbody roof.

Sean my best advice is to give him a call and mention my name and car. Might give you a better price
