I got my car back on Thursday from Craig Moncrieff
He managed to fix the leaking manifold & fitted the new Janspeed.
The old 2bular (which i bought 2nd hand) was absolutely goosed.
it was leaking in 2 places from cracked welds & the packing had gone.
anyway, new exhaust sounds amazing - a lot quieter.
but once the cam change kicks in it gives off an incredible noise.
really pleased with it
Thanks Craig !

Sorry - meant to post these pics ages ago.
1st pic is when Craig fitted the brand new Janspeed - it didnt fit properly because the exit pipe swept round the back and hit the stainless manifold as it branched round the corner.
I done a track day down at RAF Marham & got 145mph down the straight (1.5 mile runway!) and warped the undertray - as the heat was going both sides on the tray.
I took it to RJM over in Glenrothes - they cut & welded it to suit.
Cost me £120
Much happier with the way it sits now (need a new under tray now!)
