I need a quality exhaust fabrication company to open my cats on my 993tt and replace the cat cores with some new cores I have sourced.

Can anyone recommend one in the Leeds area or further afield?

I'd prefer if someone could recommend on personal experience as from what I've heard this isn't a job for the feint hearted - and the inserts cost a bomb!

Thanks
Kenny

Thanks Simon, hope you are well.

That one looks particularly good as they advertise their specific sports cat upgrade services which is what I'm after really.

If it comes down to a cat upgrade rather than decat, then exhausts Uk do a nice line in this too!

Mate of mine on the 7seriesregister had his 740i cats replaced with sports cats, sounds better, goes better and better economy too

Their price is remarkabley surprising (for me, the comparison is with OEM BMW parts & powerflow systems!)

When you go to exhaustsuk (you know you wanna ) ask them about the jobs they have to rectify from a well known outfit *cough cough PF cough cough* and ask them about the scrap pile dedication in sheffield rofl

The only problem I found with Zorstec were their prices!!

They wanted a ridiculous amount of money for a custom 2 into 1 system for a shitty old honda Dominator I was rebuilding....Im talking damn near £700 yikes

Ive been quoted less for a full custom stainless system for the BMW laugh

I've heard good things about Tony Law as well.
Based on the industrial estate Near First Direct in Sturton I believe.

Thanks for all the tips guys. I made a few calls and will be using pipewerx in the end - these guys seem set up well for replacing cat bricks on porsche's and ferrari' (plus racing cars it seems). Perfect.

Thanks again

He never used to work with anything but mild steel - not sure if thats what you want. He does lots of motor sport stuff too.
