Hahaha it wasnt me, but be interesting to find out the differences in weight compared with the OEM, be nice if it had a nice growl to it rather than the whine the current systems emits, keep me posted Mr T.

Bluebaur, so it was you ya swine lol :D

Well it looks like somebody will have there's before me Jet, but I’ll let you know what it sounds like.

They make S-Steel Exhausts for Ferraris ETC so hopefully should sound nice. But for £250 + £25 postage, you can’t go wrong. :)

They also will be making them to order.

Yes, Mr T it was me. I am still wondering why I bid on the item as I have a BTB fitted that had already been polished and been on the car for 12 months. However the BTB is a superb piece of kit, but a little lacking in the audio department!
A friend has just purchased a set of manifolds for a 308GTS from Nouvalari Engineering and says the quality is good and the pricing was fair.
I have arranged to collect my purchase early next week and have been offered a factory visit. So I will let you know how I get on. They are currently estimating price for the tubular stainless manifold for me.

Hi Roger, please keep us updated on progress, and also how good my back box sounds if you install it before me.

Looking at there site, they can’t be bad http://www.nouvalari.com/

Will be curious to see how that compares to the Supersprint manifolds in the other thread.

I have not fitted my silencer as yet, as I am hoping to have a general day of coolant change, brake fluid replacement and some brake line greasing together with silencer fitting.
BBZ 149 purchased a similar silencer from Nouvalari Engineering and they fitted his some time last week. I managed to put my new silencer on the bathroom scales and as Terry and Jet are aware, it weighs in at about 23 kilo's. This is substantialy less than original and I will compare with my BTB once changed. Hopefully Terry will pick up on this thread and let you have his thoughts on the new silencer.
