Another silly question...does it have the standard V8 sump of a winged aftermarket one? Standard sump is 5L and aftermarket ones are around 6 - 6.5L

Hi Andrew, not sure if it is too far for you, but I used Exhaust Fix on Beresford road in Lilydale. Check their facebook page. They do a lot of custom work. The owner is Mick and he knows his stuff. They did my exhaust on an LX Hatch. Stainless mufflers, and got the rest ceramic coated. Silver to the diff, then black the rest of the way out the back. When Mick looked at my car he described how he wanted to do the system and without me telling him he was describing it as I wanted it. 2 1/2", mandrel bends, x-pipe, then 2 1/4 over the diff, heavy duty hangers, etc. (Important to drop the pipe size as you move further from the engine to keep gas speeds high as it cools and shrinks) They also used flange joints and put them at convenient locations for removal should the need come up. Prices are very reasonable. The only downside is that they are very busy, so book in ahead of time.
