Default no expert

I'm no Newage expert, but i'd use Days of Chelmsford

Days of Chelmsford suppliers of Subaru, Isuzu & Hyundai

Many people here probably know better? As for exhausts....

I go for Hayward and Scott, but as yours is new maybe something from Prodrive?

If you do a search on here I think you will find a few people have issues with Days.

Extreme scoobies are in near chelmsford.

As for exhaust Hayward and Scott in Basildon get the vote from most people on Snet.

As I said... "I'm no new scooby expert"

The only reason I said Days and Prodrive was any issues possibly regarding warrenty?


P.S. YES EXTREME SCOOBIES ARE QUALITY!

Im taking my JDM STi7 over to Power Engineering for it's 40k service. Not in Essex I know but I've used these guys loads of times before and have always felt the service was superior to most.

Have always used Wilsons (Subaru Main Dealer) in Chadwell Heath for my servicing, never had any problems.

Car has a non-standard backbox and they haven't had any issues with warranty work I have had done.
