I'd have thought about £400 - excluding the manifold.
My experience of BXs is that the front pipe will last a decade or more without need for change!

Inless its on a valver where the front pipe tend to die far to frequently, probably down to its rather prone position.

I guy I know has a BX14 with a full stainless exhaust. I advertised it on here for him a while back, might be worth buying the car just to get the exhaust off it :wink:

You don\'t wanna loose the standard fannymold, they\'re pretty good and switching to a 4 branch might lose you grunt, not gain it.
