RaceTorque did my tune and also fitted up the exhaust. No problems.

I'm north of the river mate, so if you want a listen we could meet up.

Yeah that would be good mate. Could have a listen to yours then. Must admit it sounds great on the video. I don't get back from work for another 2 weeks and pick the car up the day after.

You could either get a cheaper, mild steel diff-back or for a bit more a 3" mandrel bent, stainless steel diff back which you can keep long term and get the rest (dump pipe and mid section) at a later date.

That sounds like a nice option for me at the moment. I'm pretty new to all the tuning and mods so I don't really know where to look to get things like that made up. Suggestions? Is it not more expensive to get a custom diff back that buying a pre made one off the shelf?

I'm not aware of any pre-made diff-backs (as I own a MY08 as opposed to MY11+) but even if they were cheaper it would come from the states and shipping would probably negate any money saved.

When I say pre-made I meant companies that build in bulk etc. I'm guessing ultrex build heaps of them and sell them? Or are they custom ones that they build when someone wants/orders them? Sorry, I'm a modding noob haha

empire performance 3 inch exhaust will fit in your budget and do an awesome job.
