I had mine made there, was quoted about £320 for a manifold back, I paid cash and asked to keep the cat as I can sell it for scrap at work. He said he would buy the cat so ended up getting it done for £260 I think. It's worth asking to keep the cat if you still have one fitted, just to get a little more discount. He's a good guy though, I need to stop by some time and get a price for some intercooler piping :D

Yeh, Charlie is a top man.

Can do pretty much anything with SS.

His workers are very skilled and enthusiastic about Honda's. :top:

You will have a laugh with Mo, the lad that builds the silencers.

He will make a system on a 4g for to take home and post to someone no problems, that's what we did with Ian's.

He also made mine, and Yas SiR's (B20 EF9) aswell as Sham's new one, I haven't seen or heard it yet but Faz said it sounds awesome.

He must have done quite a few EF's now.
