These arrived. Too bad the car is away so I couldn't do a test fit up.
I got sent this pic just before.
Progress!

It's a shame I have to drive it, just too clean under there.
Apparently it's going to be moderately loud as it's getting 2 x 5" round by 14" long mufflers and that's it. Can't get a dual in/out muffler that fits. either way too big it won't fit the car or too small that it would be barely better than straight out.
Worst case he will add 2x 3.5" resonators at the rear as that it the only possible size that would just squeeze in.

that's the plan! full comp headers will certainly help the tickled engine breathe.

Got my seat modifications.
Will post how they work when I get to work on the seat.
Exhaust is done.
Just need to collect the car tomorrow.
