There is a TB Mk1 saloon that's being broken near me and it has a cat back stainless steel exhaust on it but I don't know how to tell what make it is. I can't see any markings on it but surely there must be a way in which to tell. Anyone know how I can tell?

If there is anything that anyone wants thats fairly easy to remove (providing I don't want it) let me know and I'll see if I can get it for you at a good price.

Inlet manifold is rattling so that's a no go!

If there are no names on it anyware you will just have to go on the quality.

Look at the flanges and the welding, is there weld splater every ware. Does it have bolt together flanges or cheap slip joints.

Ive seen a couple of custom made zorsts with out brand names, Only as good as the bloke that made it.

It does have bolt together flanges but the tail pipe is effing huge so may just take the center section for myself and sell the backbox on. Then I will get a tailpipe of my choosing :)

Not 100% on size, it just looked massive. I would say it's bigger than 4" but I will have a look on Monday and measure it and take some pics!

Hmmmmm, IMO 4" is the absolute limit on what is tasteful.

Not sure any manufacturers do larger than a 4" tail, so Id say it is custom.

It may well be 4" but it's too big for me!

I had another look today and it's not branded anywhere and the welding looked shat, I do have a pic on my phone which I'll upload later!

This is one of the back, doesn't actually look as big as it did in the flesh (if that makes sense)

I have just got a new center section on mine, plus I might wait and get a powerflow one setup exactly how I want it, but if anyone on here wants it I will take it off for them. It's cat back too :)
