Mk1 Escort - Exhaust Options

[Scortedvan]

Hi all,

Ive not been here for some time but, but i still have my escort and its almost ready to use again! 

However I need a full 2 1/4” exhaust system including manifold, its a 2l pinto RHD.

Problem is I cant seem to find anything that fits the bill on review/cost. I have seen a lot of the ‘Sportex’ systems for not a lot of money but reviews dont seem great.

I spoke to Janspeed need a minimum order quantity that they dont think they will get this year.

I also spoke to ashley who can supply a stainless 2 1/4 system and mani for ~£700 which i thought was good but again review seem to knock them for quality and poor fit.

So im a little lost right now! Does anyone have any advice they could offer - im looking to spend as above, around £700... 

Thanks in advance!

Longlife custom system?

I recently bought a sportex system same spec as yours. No problem

Try Tony law or Simpson  both are top quality

Thanks for the replies! Regarding a custom system, TLE and simpson, agreed they are probably as good as you get but i cant really stretch to that money right now unfortunately. 

Interesting about the sportex system though, so many people seem to knock them that i assumed they must be no good. Out of interest did you get a mild steel system or do they do stainless?
