Its an engine bay weld/respray. Loads of chrome. Loads of hoses and a few other bits too. Not just in and out with an engine.
If they do the same kind of job for that price then sound

According to the guy at PVD it was all a bit of a cock up that they don't wanna be repeating, seemed like a nice guy too  Can always get a fitting kit off of Regal or Cosvaux if PVD don't come up with the goods... Cheers for the number

Like to know more about the tuning before its all put back together so if there's owt I want on while its in bits, it'll be easier to do.
No problem doing things a step at a time tho

I dont want the exhaust to be any louder than it is so yeah, I'll ask for a smaller silencer.
I'dv thought that me self, that if the emissions are ok then it wont matter, but isnt that what cats are all about, controling the emissions??

your mot goes on what your car was. eg. mine was a 1,4 so it must have the emmisions of a 1.4 no matter what engine i put in it
