    What exhaust to pick M2 or SRS ??

    If you want quietish dont go for the M2. I was looking for the same sort of thing, bought the M2 and took it off a couple of days later. It was mental! Ive got unsilenced B-pipe and OEM backbox from euro car parts. cost £60 for the backbox. Sounds great and had no negative effect on performance.

    Exhaust help

    I bought a 60mm angled. It might actually fit the angle of the exhaust, if not I'm going to cut it back a bit. Take it you've measured yours? M2 guy said once they bring the bung out all you will have to do is drill a hole and fit. Seen this on eBay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/320968789190 not...

    EP3 EP3 Steering

    Got them on Thursday but not really driven far on them. I actually took the car back today as it felt it so much worse after the alignment. Glad I did though. The left toe was out, so someone hadn't done it right. Cars still not returning properly, but feels much better. I'll give it a few days...

    How much should i be asking for my ep3?

    I just bought an 2003 EP3. pretty much mint. 70k full service history (serviced twice a year) £2750. Cars worth what people are prepared to pay for it. You might get what your asking for, but be prepared to wait until the right buyer comes along
