Cobra is good so is milltek but price wise cobra is much better value

Have a look on eBay you can get them second hand on there. As they're stainless you may as well buy second hand, I did. I got a Miltek cat back for £250. I'm still looking for a 3" DP at a good price.

Recently invested in a cobra non res cat back for my LCR and it sounds good

depends on what you want to do.
eg
back box only?
cat back?
sports cat?
decat? (id not advise this)
downpipe?

what are your plans? are you likely to mod the car further? any remaps etc? it makes sense to have a plan and go for a system to match

Is it dependant on a budget ??

If not miltek all the way but next best option cobra !!! Better for value in my opinion

If money is no object, I'd recommend the piper system for the LCR but its expensive

It's a shame people only mention 'cobra' when cheap or good value is in the same sentence

Yes I'm not gonna lie, Cobra have priced the exhaust to undercut the whole exhaust range. They seem to be doing well. And rightly so....I've been running their exhaust for a whole now and 'cheap' and 'good value' have been forgotten now. It's more 'awesome sound' 'great looks' 'impressive performance' are good terms.

For years the piper system is THE best for the LCR. no question about it. A few years back Piper created a thread on here of what customers wanted from their exhausts. Been proven a few times- more torque, better sound etc but ultimately the looks and price let it down. No one in their right mind will buy a piper system for a LCR now due to how cheap the cars have become.

The blue flame or pipewerx are great systems. The pipewerx slightly more pricy. It was the system I was looking at for a long while.

My conclusion, look into the Cobra. It's a great exhaust.

Attributing good value to an item is a complement, doesn't mean it's junk.
