Powerflow arn't the best, they're just expensive because they're 'custom made' to your want.
I have a Peco back box lying about if anyone wants it. Hardly any use to me!

Mines a Powerflow cat-back from a Powerflow dealer in Bromley. It cost me £290 fitted. Sounds very loud! A lot of people complain about the quality of the work and the metal but like Des said its a franchise so it depends on who's doing it. Mine's last a year or so already with no problems (apart from the loudness!) |

I have a powerflow back box with a 3" tail pipe and a centre section now. The welding wasn't the best in the world around the actual tail pipe, but I figure the other day that autosol seems to strip anything you put it on, and it took all the crappy weld burns right off, and it looks like a mirror now
As Des said, it's all down to the franchise you go to. I went to Big City Tyres in Notts, as did Graham I think, and they were very reasonable, and knowledgable about what they were doing which always makes me confident. Ie: they could tell me the benefits and disadvantages I might come across. They are definately worth a try, they are only as expensive as the middle/higher end of the "retail" market. |

Maybe because that whatever you go for on an Si, it's not going to make much of a difference? If you know a franchise is of good quality for Powerflow, there's sh!t all wrong with them. |
