Then start with the exhaust. Look on here in the for sale section for a stainless steel system - or start from the back box first.

Probably get a 2nd hand back box [ i.e. Magnex ] for around £100. Centre for £40 and a downpipe for £150ish.

But if you want to get from A to B faster, sort out the chassis first.
Talk to a good specialist, ie Power Station, TSL etc and get roll bars , good alignment job, and the best tyres you can find/afford.
