I had them on my old Chimaera. I would defiantly recommend them but I cant help you with a local fitter, mine were done by Offords.

John Wright (Toon TVR) has them fitted to his Chimaera, again it was done at Offords and they do sound really nice. The sound of the cheery bombs isn't that different to the stright-through version as on Andy's (and as my old chimaera) though!

I don't think anybody locally is offering the mod as a 'standard item' like offords do, but some of the better exhaust specialists may do it as a one-off!

Cheers lads. Looks like I'll be on the road again. Does nobody else get sick of having to travel miles to get anything done on TVR's?

Darren,

Go to metal supermarket...buy two bits of tube 52mm diameter 600mm long (need to check that) and then come round my house for an hour...job done...!

Cheers Andy see you tomorrow To be honest I was going to contact you but I know you have loads on with the baby coming and the Chim in bits so asking for a job doing is just taking the pee. Maybe later on in the year

hmmmm...maybe you are right...it probably would be better if i got my car back together before offering to do your exhaust.

Anyway just to let you know the stainless is about £20
