    V8 Disco exhaust ideas

    Ok all I need a helping hand.
    Going through the high country between Licola to Walhalla I had a disagreement with an earth bank. End result my rear muffler parted ways and the rest of the exhaust is destroyed, So i'm looking for a good second hand system or if you know someone near Pakenham that can make me a good cheap system please PM me.
    For those that are curious as to what happened I'll put up a full trip list and where it all went wrong. Just happy no one was hurt and the damage was minimal but lets just say that Disco's are not meant to be used as roller coaster cars and are definately not meant to get airborne.

    make sure you get a straight through centre muffler too!

    Pakenham exhaust and brake is just down the road from you, i've never had any work done there (or know anyone there) but give them a call, see what they reckon.

    Twin system sounds better than any pox single system, twin 1 3/4

    Just most are too tight to pay for a twin system

    I can highly recommend a dual exhaust for a V8 with both pipes separate but exiting side by side. It sounds gorgeous, no wurries! N.B. DON'T fit a balance pipe or you'll just have a type of single system.

    That answered my next question of how to exit twin pipes. Side by side would look sweet. Time to start Getting quotes then. I'm sold on twin system and can't wait to hear how it sounds
