Sportex are alright to be fair, yes they're mild steel and the pipework is only 1 3/4 inch, but you are getting a free flowing cat back exhaust for around £150 which do provide a mild performance increase, and they fit the car!

Same bore as BTB 2.5" was the spec they used. It had to be a modified/custom exhaust as the pugsport manifold comes back further than a normal manifold, that has massive bore primaries.

Only thing we can put it down to is electrical, after all the tests. The loom is a bit of a mess from when the car was first finished, so it was needed at somepoint, just annoying it shat itself mid track season.
