This is what it sounds like with RCM Downpipe (Sports Cat), RCM non res centre and Team Ice rear.

have you not searched up about the blitz? only good things being said about it.one thing i do know about the nur spec is that it is very well made,looks and sounds immense with plenty of power gains with mapping.

Not interested in the power gains as they will be minimal after already being mapped withe the 3" de-cat.

i know they are a top bit of kit, just thinking about something a little different. there's not many people around with the RCM exhaust...

Plus having the blitz i will still have too modify it to 3" flange connection, as i will have pretty much the same problem as now.

if its a cone type flange it wont fit,if its a flat face(for a normal gasket) it will not need to be modified as mentioned in other thread.it will bolt straight to the blitz! you can see when you look at the end of the blitz that it should fit a 2.5 or 3 inch flange as long as its the flat face type.(not cone gasket type) probably best you go for an rcm as it seems you want the whole rcm system.i dont really know why you consider something other than rcm as this is obviously what you want deep down!good luck mate and thanks for the decat.

Cheers mate, i will leave you itrader feedback later on ;-)

so i assume the problem with my current exhaust is that it is a cone gasket fitting type and thats why its not fitting upto the new downpipe...

does the new downpipe have a cone type on the end or a flat face that requires a normal gasket?
