I wasn't expecting that ! very reasonable indeed
It is, very happy with it.

Weight wise, it's a smidge under 11kg, so not the lightest, but still a fair whack lighter than the standard box.

It looks an OK piece of kit, it will sound good. The most important thing is how well made it is, most places use the same materials, its how they make them thats the important bit.

I keep meaning to get my guy to make me a batch of these.

Ill get some made and get them out to test on a few CSL's at cost prices.
That's cool Shane.

Yeah the design looks very similar to other exhausts out there, I am sure it could be replicated.

The box itself looks very well made, I had a good look over it before I fitted it, the hangers are strong, and the welds look tough, much better welding than on my old Supersprint Race from a few years back which broke it's hangers and better than the Milltek I originally had which split its welds.

Time will tell to see how well it lasts, I'm not expecting it to fall apart as it looks fairly tough.
