Well the exhaust on the Paul Smith is getting louder by the day - going to treat myself to something a bit nicer. So, basically I'm just after thoughts on what's out there.
I'm swaying towards a Maniflow but they are a little pricy - then again quality tends to cost!
Any other thoughts?

Forget anything else Niall , Maniflow are the best by a long shot , they fit , sound good , give the performance and look good as well . We use nothing else and refuse to fit anything else in any conversion .

Yeah, that's what everyone seems to say Ger!
Going to get one ordered up soon as the 6am starts with a dodgy exhaust are probably beginning to annoy my neighbours.......

Well the exhaust is here
and I tried to get it fitted yesterday but the nuts holding the old one to the Catalyst just wouldn't budge no matter how much swearing I did!
Going to attack them again with the grinder I think and drill the studs out to take normal bolts instead.
Can't wait to get it fitted now - very nicely made bit of kit!

There IS only 1 exhaust for classic minis , Maniflow , they are making exhausts since Christ was a child and are the only one for fit and performance .

Old pics and not the best really - it seems to stick out far more in these pictures than it does in real life. Might go get soem better ones if it ever stops raining here.

Which did you go for? As there seems to be a few to choose from on their site
