new exhaust

Hi guys, i am trying to replace the exhaust system on my faithful old GT2. She's started blowing a bit and since she has looked after me so well i would like to treat her to something new.

Does anybody have any advice on what system i should be putting on there, and more importantly where i can source one?

I would quite like to go aftermarket, or something that will help her breath better.

Any suggestions and advice would be really appreciated.

Thanks

Jetex systems come well recommended.

Alternatively you could try dropping by the Longlife place on the A34 N (by the BP services just before the M40).
I had one on my mk1 and loved it.
(I haven't had any dealings with that actual branch - so if you do go, make sure they know what they're talking about before you commit!)

Thanks Ryan,

quick question - of the 2 exhausts that jetex do for the gt2 - which would be best? the 2" or 2.5" diameter?

Thanks again.

If I were you I'd PM Ant (The Autoad) with this one, as I think he has experience of both...

2.5" is too big unless you've got over 150 bhp. It'll cost more to buy, weighs more, and will cost you power. 2" is plenty.
