If only someone made a quality aftermarket exhaust. My B&B is decent for power but the build quality is like the rest. I am constantly weld repairing the heater boxes and the one side is warped from B&B but he wouldn't do anything about it.

I do find it hard to believe that after 20 years of looking at these cars I have never come across a Rarly8 exhaust. I have heard they are one of the better ones. I have a Scart swans neck I plan to install on my turbo that I have to say is an impressive piece. Thick walled SS vs B&B and other US makes.

I would be interested in your opinion.

Your line looks OK. I am not a fan of the metal braided lines as they are like razors to everything they touch but it appears you have that covered.

i have B&B as well - came on my car. Paul B is a big fan of the RarlyL8 stuff. Maybe I’ll try theirs headers one day since my BB are tired out. But they work. No leaks that I can tell. Same loose heater box issues that you have. At least I’m in good company!

thanks re the line. It isn’t touching anything except the support clip.

I just put mine on the lift. It looks like a small weep from the seal at the top of the turbo. Just ever so slight but annoying. I have the same braided line but not worth changing it.
