Have you got a custom exhaust on your ed30...?

I have an MV Sports full system. Very nicely mad, thats what the garage told me when they fitted it! Their customer service was EXCELLENT! i thought i had a rattle in it! turned out it was one of the one of the screws loose for the sensor and he was willing to replace it without batting an eye lid!

Really well its a good product!! and he is a top guy!!! Really helpful!!

[Powervalve Nige]

Yeah he's old school like me

They do maps as well in the form of motec, not sure what their maps are like!

[Powervalve Nige]

Knowing Mike - his maps will be excellent - and well within limits.

[baldwined30]

Well its his nephew tat does the maps!! they get about 330hp from S3 with their software and their TBE which is about right i guess!

[Powervalve Nige]

Indeed.
Once we get to that sort of power which most coders seem to be capable of producing - it boils down to the power delivery especially on fast take off's
If a dealer is boasting big power, I would always like to think that he could stand behind hi product with a demo or access to a car with that sort of power for you to experience how linear the power delivery feels.

If you still fancy a Powerflow exhaust I can recommend Unique Exhausts in Stafford. He did my exhaust backbox for my Scirocco, and over the last 10 years has done a stock replacement exhaust for my dad's car and an exhaust for me on one of my old cars and we've never had any problems with any of them. It's a one man band so you wont get the YTS lad who doesn't really know what he's doing like the other Powerflow place you mentioned either. The premises don't look much but he does a good job and well priced too - phone number is 01785331222.

There are some pics of mine at the end of my thread here:-

That BCS exhaust sounds fantastic, when I finally get around to getting a new exhaust I think that where I will be going

I did end up getting a cat back powerflow from a different dealer and took a chance.....I  Asked for it not to be loud but a nice tone under gas....he fitted two of the smallest silencers he had, it sounded farty and like it was blowing.

I Went back yesterday and had a larger silencer fitted and to be honest sound loads better....a little throaty on tick over and lower revs but not loud and droney like it was before, and a really nice not too loud jet sound on full chat, also had Will map it at p torque made 314bhp

Glad you got it sorted. I part time at the Powerflow in Telford. You get what you pay for IMO. Ive got a full 3" from the turbo. With mandrel bends and true 3" boxes. All tig welded. Some people just dont want to part with cash, like people have sed it's over a grand for a miltek, you could get a real quality system for that price at a decent Powerflow dealer. Come see us.

Think I will have to pay this Will a visit for a remap.

Sounds good.... How much would a down pipe cost me to go to my power flow rear....?

And yes Wills remaps are very good
