Cheapest place to buy a Piper exhaust?
Hey,
Think I've decided on getting a Piper cat back system for my 2001 VTR, I just need to find out wheres cheapest, anyone know?
Thanks
Edit: Also, is it really worth going Stainless? It's like £100 more.

Speed Box I think is one of the cheapest at £271 for the 3.5"

And i am not sure about whether stainless is worth the extra but I got stainless and its a great system.

stainless is better full stop.
Mild steel = rust to fook after a while

But if you are not going to keep the car for long then you may as well save the money and get something else with it.

Id advise getting a stainless system.. they come with a life time warranty... well worth it in my opinion...
Have a look in the registered member discounts.. 2modified had a special offer for sax-p on piper backbox's so might have a good deal on a system...
I actually ordered my piper backbox from Demon Tweeks, but my local garage ordered it on my behalf and got it at trade prices... it might be worth enquiring with your local garage whether they have any discounts or offers?

Looking at it this way, 300 quid either gets me the piper (steel) and a racland induction from kam, or it gets me the piper in ss...
How bad would the rust be on a mild steel exhaust? I'm likely to have the car for 2 years, but anything can happen in that time.
