Central Belt Exhaust Recommendation
Discussion
I'm looking for some recommendations on places in the central belt to knock together an exhaust for me, for the right price. The back box fell off the Saab yesterday (rusted at the join so no pipe on the back box section to clamp to) which is terribly timed at the moment!
I've been looking at stainless systems for a few months now (jinxed maybe?) and all the "pattern" exhausts are about £400 give or take 20 quid. I had hoped that it would come in a bit cheaper for a garage to knock together a stainless system for me. Took a trip up to RGM & Sons in Fife for a quote and came in at £550 using powerflow parts!! Given powerflow are known to not exactly use the best grade of steel and known to have some surface rust, that's a bit steep.
Hoping for some other recommendations in the central belt sort of area so I can do a bit of a price battle. I'm Edinburgh so travelling to Glasgow is a bit on the far side even though I know there is some good garages out there. I know of Stainless Creations in Falkirk too, he's done some work on my MR2 before and just waiting for a call back from him just now. Anyone else obvious I'm forgetting?
If I can't get a decent prince for a cat back system, I'll cheap bodge it until I have some money saved back up to afford a decent system

I've never used them but I've heard pipe dynamics are ok; http://pipedynamics.co.uk
I had my exhaust fabricated by originiall fabrications in Wallyford. Not cheap but the guy's work is top quality; https://facebook.com/originfab/

Previous owner used Niall to create a flapped exhaust for my Lexus ISF. Looks spot on.
