LCR - Which exhaust system to go for?

[Gubien]

I KNOW there might be TONS of such threads! But!

Blueflame have 3 weeks delivery time for a full exhaust system for the LCR.
Is it worth waiting for? About 850£.

I want a proper downpipe, but for some reason I think the piperexhaust are too expensive!
Its like 850£ just for downpipe and cat!

Could go for the piper downpipe and milltek cat, but again, above 850£!

So, is the lower pice for the blueflame just because its lack of quality?

Btw. I dont want the car to be turned into a boy scout racer with noise exhaust!

Is there other options? Milltek catback is out, dont like the look of the tailpipe!

Hi Mate,

Try to barter with BF a bit as I maanged to get a bit of money off mine.

I love my BF system it sounds great when you give it beans and quiet on the motorway.

Full turbo back system too, so good if your planning modifications.


Cheers

Lee

Blueflame looks to be a very good option - 3" all the way from the turbo and nice tail pipe too.

Im interested in getting a 3" downpipe and cat back from blueflame so we could see if any others are interested and try and work out a deal with the company

 

[Gubien]

Hmmm... I just HATE to wait... I'm not the most patient guy in the world... LOL.. But may'be its worth waiting for ...

 

[Gubien]

Ohh noo... If I have to sort this out with 20 people i'll never get the exhaust.. LOL

 

[vwbassett]

Have you looked at supersprint?

 

[Gubien]

Yep, but I dont reckon them having sports cat and downpipes?

 

[Cupra_R04]

well im looking at one asap aswell so even if we can get a deal done for the two of us. Just and idea

There £795 for the full system on Ebay, so theres £55 off already.

I'm in the same boat as you guys (but I have already bought one) initially I was Piper all the way but would you notice the difference for the price difference???
The Milltek was struck off for two points, no 3" DP and rank looking tail pipes.
Pipers, very good system but a bit expensive
Blueflame, perhaps the best of both BUT hope that you don't have problems with it as some have had problems with build quality and passing emissions part of MOT

BTW I went for a Blueflame one due to a very good price second hand

 

[Cupra_R04]

surely willie they sorted you out with a replacement then? Does it sound nice?

Mark

p.s so so tempted to just order it lol then all i need is hoses then remap

 

[Gubien]

Willie, I emailed them through ebay and they told me it was discontinued and build would take 3 weeks.
So I dont understand how they can have it on ebay.

Strange, if it's discontinued why can they still build you one??
EDIT

Discounted not discontinued

 

[Cupra_R04]

Holey shamoley, that's a lot of spending

 

[Cupra_R04]

not forgetting my 18" bbs ch's and lambo reps

 

[JamJay]

Noooo, it says "discounted" not discontinued, implying they've knocked £££ somewhere.

 

[Gubien]

I will go order one now and apologize for "spreading" wrong "rumours"...
