Yep, custom made by H&S in basildon, they said it would be 3 weeks and sure enough it was 8)

Washed mine today aswell, was playing on my test track and it got smothered, looked like it had been through a rally stage 8)

very nice mate, but your right its going to be a bitch to fit

for my valentines pressie i gave the R a service, did compression check - came up 160, 155, 155, 160 :D and wiried my fog light to the right inside brake light, but so all the lights still work as normal, was quite chuffed

What im most impressed about is the fact it was done exactly when they said it would be. From previous experience with other cars i tend not to believe companies time scale quotes. The worst was 5 weeks for engine and bodywork which turned into 14months :shock:

True to his word Ian had it done bang on time, the quality is top notch 8)

A split dump pipe which seperates exhaust and wastegate gasses reduces turbulance at the elbow, although the chap that made mine reckoned they have had trouble mapping imprezas with a split dump pipe.

if you meant a seperate elbow and front pipe doubt there'd be any difference if they were both 3" diametre, obviously seperate pipes would be easier to fit.

That is bee-autiful ! Did you have to leave your downpipe for them to model it on or did they have drawings/templates in stock ?

Any noticable performance increase ?

not trying to be a pesemist but what is with the half moon cut right below the turbo outlet flange? It doesnt look too flow happy but at the same time it doesnt look THAT restrictive

i thought it looked abit odd myself :?

Just gives you abit more room to get a spanner on, cant see how else he could've done it really, to come out different would've put you nearer the alternator

A better photo showing the elbow part of the front pipe, i dont think it will be to restrictive at all, cant really see how you'd do it any differently as you're governed by the size of the flange as to how you make the elbow, in the other photo where the flange is flat on it does look wierd but this shows the size and curve of it much better,

Its got to be miles better than standard 8)

they had a jig made for the elbow from a while ago. I just gave them the mongoose front pipe so that everything would match up, i'm keeping the mongoose from the decat back.

As far as performance gains it isn't fitted yet :(
