Where do i buy exhaust mod?

Hello all, i want to make my 4.2 s/c a bit more throaty if that makes sense? So i have searched and as i am sure you all know there is loads of info but i have a few questions.
Where could i buy a magnaflow cat back in the UK? When ever i search they are all for a 5.0l s/c not a 4.2?
I have found this brand double SS from paddocks/ craddocks Any good?
I am happy to have the resonator delete done, just the square box in the middle as far as i know not the oval piece, i do really like the look of the standard back boxes aswell. So could anyone recommend anyone in Birmingham?
I have only had one quote at £350ish plus vat.

Opinions welcome Smile
Thanks yall

I’m just in the process of having my middle box & resonator removed & straight pipes put in their place,,I’m just cutting them then getting another straight pipe then sleeving it.Mine is the 5.0 but the exhausts are similar.

Hi pal I have just had one custom made from quick silver cost me £1000.00 it makes TDV8 sound like a V8 Petrol Awsom, I can not imagine what yours would sound like after having it installed, I am sure you will not be disappointed, please note I have nothing to do with quick silver I only used them as my Local Indi Recomended them!

Wish you all the best

Cheers for the replys, the more i look the harder it is to decide haha how much are you paying for the resonator delete?
I wouldn't mind a custom one but all the fabricators i have looked at around here have very poor reviews:/ where was the quicksilver one sourced from?
I have found these S/S ones for sale at paddocks and the like but can not find much about them to be honest

This is like my exhaust system & we are going to cut behind the resonator box marked red & at the front of the box it slides over where it comes from the cats,,so we are just going to get some straight pipe & sleeve both pipes front & rear,,job done at a cost of about £80-£100.

Have you looked at MIJ Performance Walsall? I’ve had a couple of stainless bespoke exhausts made by them and both were superb. One on a V6 Vectra VXR and they made a like for like exhaust for my Westfield. Both had first class welding.

They offer a while you wait service and we’re very competitively priced. Think I paid around £400 for the Vectra for a complete hand made cat back system.

I was just going to do that with my exhaust but the pipe needs bending on the 4.2 to line up by the looks (thats what it looks like on this pic i found on here anyway)


i thought £350 was a bit steep for that haha ashame no one sells the pipe ready bent i would just weld it in.

I did have a look at MIJ (found them on ebay) but search for reviews of them and found quite a few horror stories on TT forum and piston heads with a few pics. It put me off, you say yours was good though so perhaps it depends on what Tech is making it

I am going with that option Andy 👍 i figure if i like the sound i will investigate more and get one made. I have measured the exhaust it is just under 56mm... can only find 54mm or 57mm pipe, there is always an issue 😂 i guess go for 54mm and clamp it down.

Thanks for all the info guys, took a while i know! But finally got round to doing it and s**t it sounds good!! Much better than i expected!!
Ended up using 2 straight sleeves, 2 long flexis and a 2 bits of exhaust pipe and done, don't look the best i have to say but jesus does it sound good!!
When i find someone who will weld in solid pipes at a descent price i will have it done to tidy it up. But yeh best mod i have ever done 😂

Thanks yall!!

So what did you do in the end? Remove the 1 centre box? I`m having second thoughts now about doing this. Steve.
