Title: MV Sport S3 8P Downpipe
Post by: david_phillips95 on February 23, 2010, 06:01:38 pm: Got my MV Sport DP through today, super fast delivery and very well packaged. Took me ages to get it unwrapped it was so well packed. Very impressed with the DP in the flesh, cant wait to get it fitted I came across this system and was immediately interested as it can be mated with your OEM catback. I also like the 3 piece design vs single piece DP's i have seen other companies selling - it will make fitting and maintenance far easier, after establishing interest on the forum i contacted Mike at MV and he offered a brilliant GB discount (see link for groupbuy below). I have had a thorough look over the whole system and i cannot find a single flaw! - working on gas turbines fitted to aircraft for years has made me very pernickety and critical of everything i purchase. The quality of the stainless, welds, and the craftsmanship that has gone into this product brilliant. The quality is compareable to the aircraft grade materials i work with which is impressive considering how critical and costly aircraft parts are.

Well Done MV Sport, Top Product and a big thanks to Mike from MV who has been very helpful!
