Looks a nice bit of kit.. This is your eBay purchase isn't it? Do they make them for 2.5i?

as you suggested, i tried to contact Best Mufflers by email, but it didnt seem to work for me on numerous occasions, but i ended up just buying one off their online shop. at a good price too, should come late next week.

I had similar problems too with his emails, so I left voice messages too, he ventually called me back and I made the purchase. His prices are pretty darn good and he seems like a nice bloke.

Jake (doyab) has a full xforce cat back on his 3rb and it sounds wicked.

yeah his prices are good, especially compared to ...... who is selling just the center and y pipe for $200 less too.

and from your good word, i took the gamble and ordered a kit. now i just gotta save some money to get it on and get a tune. might have to wait untill may tho :(

fitted my intake system today :D it was the first time ive ever heard a pod filter running, ooh boy it sounded good.

and as for the xforce cat back system, i got a phone call from Chris @ Best Mufflers, they couldnt get a stainless steel cat back system as he and his suppliers are out of stock, but he is getting in a mild steel system on monday and said he will ship it out to me first thing on monday. He also said he will refund the difference back to me :D so ill have a few more pennies in the bank.

that, to me, is excellent customer service :D and im happy i made my purchase

just an update on the intake system. i got to go for a good drive this arvo/evening.

now im not too sure whether its the 100 octane fuel, or the intake kit or both but my engine is now alot more responsive, revving better/quicker. its great! id recommend it

just gotta fit up the cold air upgrade, custom enclosure, heat reflective wrap the intake pipe for MORE POWERR!!!
