I used Krieger cct'sThey are available from exhaustist in Holland.Or you could go for bazza's from this forum.Bazza's are converted auto's so you still keep the standard look.
SO WHEN DOES THIS OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW BETTER KICK IN

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Is there an obvious external difference?

Being converted autos, Bazza'a keep the standard look and extend out more so are easier to get at for adjusting (and cheaper!).

Well You didn't say youre price :roll:
Bazza normaly charges £40 but may want a bit more to cover shipping to you Hellfire...I dunno have to ask him drop him a PM with your addy details...

Bazza is a fine upstanding member of this fine Forum & you wont be disapointed with his product.

Apart from the looks there is not much to choose between makes...Some on e-bay you will get the bolts & a gasket with then for the price. Did a set for someone a few weeks ago that he got of the Bay & they had o'ring's, bolts & gaskets compleate...

Bazza's no gasket, personaly I make a gasket with gasket paper & use that, some just use hi temp silicone...

I have got 1x set of Krigers & 1 x set of ades homemade Kriger copys both bought 2nd hand & there is no real difference in them it's just if you trust a multinational engineering company or a bloke in a shed... Talking of which I also have 2 other Storms fitted with Bazza's CCT & have fitted them to 3 other Storms as well...Oh & I may add to that Bazza has a very nice Shed...He calls it a Summer House but it's a shed... :lol: :lol:

Not yet...Hosp on Thurs...will find out then...

I said it was a nice shed ! It may have been sold as a summer House but you are using it as a man cave...a shed in other words...

Now shut it & sell Helfire a set of Man CCT's... :lol: :lol: :lol:
