    You are a good man! Thanks for the update! Just make sure you don't put your back out again while doing any of this! Cant have you injured again :)

    Just wondering the reason for the U bend. Is that to keep the lengths equal? Or because the flexi needs to be positioned further towards the centre in order to fit the silencer in?

    It's looking great, such a better looking engine bay.

    I've just caught up with this. Looking fantastic and I love the pipework of the exhaust. This should go beautifully and I am looking forward to hearing it too. Great stuff! :)

    Yes the U bend serves two purposes, equal length downpipes and a nicer flowing Y merge.

    I bet it does too. I am pretty sure that, after seeing and hearing this, it will be open wallet surgery for me. I am going to have to get another v6 in my life!! ;)

    I'm just finishing off the bespoke twin intake pipe now so won't be long at all.

    That's the spirit Nige! They have come a long way since that first 3vz install mate.
