..you have PM.

I am about to replace OEM system from cats back. What are the pros & cons - a single back box (oem style) or dual silencers? I don't mind a bit louder over oem but not to the extent of say, a K1 (too loud and raspy!). I think the Miltek that I've heard on youtube is probably more to my liking (deeper, quieter rumbly note!). I propose retaining a centre box and same diameter centre pipe. Presumably, the size of the boxes will determine how loud the system will be. The exhaust specialist I will be using has a preference for dual silencers, his reasons - better flow, but I'm concerned about keeping sufficient back pressure. Grateful for any advice.

Hi Sean, Did you follow this up with Longlife? I called in there last week and had similar quote for my Z. I've used them twice before (200SX and BMW 330d) and no complaints and would recommend. Peter

Last week I called in on Longlife exhaust system specialists, based in Wallington, Surrey (not a million miles from E.Sussex) for a rough quote for replacement of OEM cat back, to include centre section and rolled tips. Quote was £450 incl vat and fitting. I have used them twice before and can recommend. I am still not absolutely sure what I want, even considering dual system which presumably will cost a little more. There Tel no. is 0844 800 2960. If you contact them, will be interested to know how you get on.
