Hi all.
As usual I was out in my van stopped at a traffic light and I heard a klang. To my dismay half my exhaust fell off and was laid on the floor. Doh.
Any way. I want to go a little flash and am therefore looking to put a stainless steel exhaust on my van.
My question is pros and cons. Is it worth spending the extra on an ss exhaust or is it pointless.
If it is worth it. Can any one recommend were to get one. I have found a few but wondered if people had better ideas also what should I be looking at paying.
It is the only time I'm ever gonna be able to afford a ss exhaust so do I go for it.

Re: Exhaust
well. the mild steel ones £300? If you wanna replace it with another one in 5/6 years time, with another £300, then don't go stainless! 
In all honesty - when I looked it wasn't even double - so a no brainer really!! I have one from TurboThomas and one from the speed shop. Both fine and dandy. The syncro has got second had stainless that I picked up through the club.

Re: Exhaust
WBX? Diesel?
We've got the BW stainless WBX exhaust - and it's lovely.

Re: Exhaust
VW Speedshop on one of my WBX engines. It works well but is a tad noisy for a camper van. Would be spot on for a "scene" van though 
Got a new van, but it's a 165bhp T4 [shock horror] Accurate LPG Station map here

Re: Exhaust
The vw speed shop one is the one I'm looking at. Looked at a couple of others but they did not seem to be the same quality.
Liking the noise..........
As noted above. No brainer.
