Cleggy the Spyder Man Posted May 24, 2016 Posted May 24, 2016 Think I am going to take the plunge and book my car in for a new manifold and exhaust -I want the car to be as quiet as possible and if possible release a few horses (not sure if you can do both)So has anyone had a full simpson setup fitted recently and what did it cost - pm me if you likeThanks in advance Quote
Dommo Posted May 24, 2016 Posted May 24, 2016 Link pipe and silencer just set me back 480 including the vat. Quote

XTR2Turbo Posted May 25, 2016 Posted May 25, 2016 Cleggy There is a group buy advert on here somewhere that gave prices. depending if high or low exit, polished or brushed and with or without CAT I would budget between £1100 and £1500 David Quote
Tim Reid Posted May 30, 2016 Posted May 30, 2016 Simpsons were great when I took mine to them and asked them to make it as quiet as possible. They made a 7" diameter repackable silencer as long as they could sensibly fit and connected it to my existing manifold. They kept my car so everything fitted perfectly. Quote
Howsafe Workwear and Safety Equipment Posted June 8, 2016 Posted June 8, 2016 well finally got it booked in - not sure on cost yet as spec may change when I get there after a measure up - but not expecting much, if any change from £1700 - ouch! I dont doubt however that it will be a work of art and my ears will appreciate it and you cannot put a price on that Quote
XTR2Turbo Posted June 8, 2016 Posted June 8, 2016 Cleggy. Make sure you are clear how you want the silencer to align relative to the body. The factory silencer is quite short and tends to run almost parallel to the rear section of the tub. With the long silencer that Matt will suggest he normally takes an average between front and rear angles. He has always let me leave my trailer there in a safe place which saves hassle when collecting and dropping it off. Quote

B.RAD Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 He asked me how I wanted mine to fit, I said I'd like it to look as neat as possible ie no weird angles but left it to his judgement - I think it looks ace. Quote
Cleggy the Spyder Man Posted August 6, 2016 Author Posted August 6, 2016 car dropped off at Matts this morning - Jim gave us a guided tour of the facility and Matt went through my requirements Opted for bonnet exit and 8" can - going to be a whopper but quiet 1 Quote
