Exhaust in Braddon. Can't remember what I paid, and I got the twin hot dog option, but the guys there are very good and I don't recall feeling I was overcharged.

And a absolutely LOVE IT!! Love the burble sound it makes and its still nice a quiet at cruising speeds. Got it done at Exhaust Technology in Adelaide. I had my last exhaust done by them on my XF Turbo and the quality is second to none! Recommend them to anyone! They actually did the article for ZOOM magazine about the centre muffler removal and dB testing. Cost me $220. Cannot remove the smile off my face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
