    Default M20/M50 rear exhaust section swap?

    Anyone know if this section of exhaust from an M50'd car will mate up with my M20 525 twin pipe front section? Just it might help me find cheaper replacements.

    To be honest mate, E34 exhausts in the UK are a lost cause, you're either going to have to find an ebay replacement or get a custom stainless made up.

    Shockingly, most of the time custom stainless units are cheaper than buying a replacement.

    Yeah that's what I found too - they are a lost cause lol! I was asking as there's a couple of M50 powerd machines being broken on ebay, so if the mid & rear exhaust sections were a straight swap then that would do me for now. I've just spent so much £ on the house that I need to pennypinch until after xmas!

    Thanks for those Ferret, but I modified my car long ago to take the 525 twin pipe system. I'll keep looking on ebay tho.....
