Pascoe(I think) exhaust, Gaffney street Coburg. Really helpful, good, neat job, quoted $500, charged $500.
Check the phone book, I think it was called Pascoe.

Desert,
Did that include the dump pipe off the turbo (assuming yours is turbo'd)?
When I had
mine done, it cost me $220- from Glen Binskin at
Wauchope (NSW) just for the dump pipe (cos there's a fair bit of fiddly welding work including a heavy plate flange that bolts onto the turbo) and then i got a local place here in Kadina to make up the rest of the system and that cost me $900-!!! But that's about what i was quoted by Glen Binskin if I'd had his blokes do the whole job.
the dump pipe is crucial if you're trying to gain some performance benefit, as without it, you're still trying to squeeze the gases through a relatively small orofice, before it enters into a larger system....so no benefit at all.
Cheers,
Roachie

I had a 'matched' one made up for the Troopy by
Lilydale Mufflers, that included replacing the OEM muffler with a straight through set up. Extremely quiet.
They allegedly did a whole lot of exhaust R & D work for Safari and therefore are supposed to have a idea or two.
Won't hurt to give them a ring and see what they have to say.
