Simpsons system, How much??

[Jackv4]

Anyone know what Simpsons is charging for a Zetec bonnet exit system like in photo?

Tried them earlier this year, they had a long waiting list (3 months or so) and wanted my car as they'd not done a Mega S2000 for a while and wouldn't give me even a ballpark figure... you might be lucky if they've done a recent one that's similar

I should have mentioned, Im not buying but will be selling (not just yet) Im trying to put a value to mine

I was quoted “about £1k” for a sidepanel exit system - still considering....

First dibs! 
 

Only kidding 😁 - but I’d bet this would suit @Paul Aspden The 2nd new engine build 

 

Any reason for the sale? Going turbo?

Yep going turbo, Ive started gathering up parts, Until im ready to do the conversion im keeping the car on the road, Going turbo is more expensive than i had thought but im getting there, Have pistons and rods/ turbo + manifold/ gaskets/ valve spring etc so far, Plenum and cooling to sort, Im going to be using all new parts (rods 2nd hand)

The Simpsons exhaust can go along with near brand new Omex throttle bodies, Like i say though it wont be just yet

Supercharge it! Then you can keep the beautiful exhaust 👍

Not Simpson, but mine (“the best I’ve ever seen” @AdamR) was slightly less than £2k inc a silencer.

This was my first plan but decided to go with the Turbo,

Supercharger alone is £2k 😬 Saying that I still think the supercharger would have been the better option for drivability also would have sounded nice to,

Fabricating a nice turbo exhaust won't cost me much as tig welder.

I’d say between £1k and £1500 depending on spec. Eg polished or brushed, silencer size, cat etc
