What car/model have you got?

The twin backbox one is the 'Duplex' one mate 
Elite are the main dist.of Remus but i'm not sure on anywere else.I have one on my Astra and it does the job.PERFECT fit,nice noise at idle

£60 pipe is a straight through racing pipe.
£90 pipe is a front silencer.
Remus exhausts are typically a lot quieter compared to Scorpion, Piper, etc so a lot of people go for the racing pipe (£60) to add a bit more "note" to the system.
I'd stick with a front silencer if the option's there tbh as Remus spend thousands on acoustic testing for their exhausts, so it'd be a shame to waste it all on a straight-through system 
Dave - if the exhausts are in stock, then it's 24-48hr delivery

Oh, they're all s/s too unless stated.
Remus have a couple of funky new backboxes - the racing range. Available with stainless or titanium tailpipes.

Get the duplex if you have the ££££.About £300 like!
Sounds just like an exhaust should mate.Never goes about a certain note no matter what temp your car is.The more revs you get the quieter it goes...

Always go for a full system if you can afford it, but Remus backboxes will fit Remus racing/front silencer pipes at a later date, unlike other manufacturers where the backbox only option might not be compatible with the rest of a system.
Duplex on the Astra G is quite popular.

Pics of what? They're just tailpipes
It would be easier on MSN, but that wouldn't be helpful for others reading this thread .

IIRC, they don't do the Duplex for the Corsa B. Best would be to look in the PVD catalogue, or give us a call tomorrow so one of the sales guys can talk through the options.
