Well 1st service is over with,everythings hunky dory...So now i'm wanting to chuck an aftermarket exhaust on....and i'm looking for some much needed advice regarding,wot options i have for brands...i read a Remus quite alot,is this the dogs gonads? ..Would i need anything adjusting once a new can is on,etc... as i seriously havn't the foggiest.Whats a reasonable spenditure for one?

Any info would be grateful as we're just remortgaging and the missus is wanting a ""new kitchen"" whereas i just want my XB to sound nicer than it already does...and if it ups the horses....so be it!!! :D

My experience of Remus is that they employ Stevie Wonder as a welder and when the enevitable happens (as it has to others apart from me, they wash their hands :tosser: ). Send your can to Tubbs for modifying ;)

This is what you are after, its a Stealth and they are hand made in Southampton. Cost about £300 including delivery. Best sound out there if you ask me, and a hyouj exit pipe. 8-)

if it aint to your taste with the 4" exit

To balance it up, I had no problems with my Remus and there are plenty on here with one fitted. A Remus is about double the price of a Stealth though and the Stealths seem to be decent exhausts. Certainly sound nice.

Before deciding on a pipe make sure you speak to Tubbs at Morespeed Racing (he also frequents this Parish) I'm no virgin when it comes to building pipes but I was chuffed to bits with the pipe he made for my 1125. I'm bloody certain he'd stand behind his workmanship too, which is more than the :tosser: s at Remus do :x
I doubt you'll find a cheaper pipe as well ;)

:bandit: This is a hijack!

If you don't fancy having your original can modded or it's a bit past it, there happens to be one for sale in the "For Sale" section :mrgreen:

I agree this is a nice exhaust can. I was very tempted to buy one until my exhaust was available. Not sure it's nicer than my reverso can but it's all down to taste i guess!
