   Try these two:
   
   www.performancecentre.co.uk
   and
   www.speedbox.co.uk
   
   First one it cheaper than most and the second was the cheapest place I could find my Piper 4-1 manifold. Let me know what both sites quote

   I paid £155 incl delivery for my 4" slashcut..
   
   So the £100 you have found seems a great price!

    How is a Piper 3.5inch back box noise wise compared to a magnex exhaust?
    
    Just out of interest! I'm also lookin for something more quiet than my straight through jap can
