   Just to see what you guys think of these as i got a quote for the manifold,decat,system and back box for £350
   
   I had one of these setups on my nova SRi and it was great, just wanted to see if you guys have had one on any of your saxos?

   Yes they said they had the manifold for it, better to talk over the fone then u can barter with them on the final price (I thought that was cheap for everything all in)

   i think ashley exhausts are good value for money. lots of people seem to like them, i had a full system from the manifold back on my vts when i bought it but recently upgraded to a full scorpion as i found it too loud for my liking. if you like a loud exhaust choose ashley, and mine didnt rasp eitha which was good.

   is it just a steel full system? if so it will rust to bits after a while. Some competition exhausts are made from really thin material as life expectancy is generally low due to the abuse of rallying etc

    Supersprint over an ashley wtf
    
    Give over the supersprint is a good exhaust, to quiet though, Noise and the gain from a Ashley is really good
    
    I had the GMC 4-1 and a full ashley, before hand i had a OMP one, and my god what a difference the Ashley made.
    
    Class, sound, cheap enough, and the are made much better these days

    Everyone seems to "wrongly" assume that ashley exhausts are all noise and no go.
    
    This is not the case! In fact, it is far from it!
    
    My ashley system, coupled with a janspeed 4-2-1 is failry quiet and subdued! Its deep, but i wouldnt say its excessively loud. On tickover its no louder than standard. It only makes noise over 3500rpm with your foot down.
    
    The performance gain i got was very good. I never believed that an exhaust would make that much difference...

    I never knew ashley made manifolds for the saxo's. I knew they made them though.
