Depends what you mean by very quiet?you’ll never make it sound stock but getting something that is very streetable without drone is definitely possible. 

A lot of people are using AES mufflers now and the results have been great, I’ve got a set for my car (getting done next week) and I heard Andrew Hawkins car on the weekend and am confident in my choice

sorry is there another thread ? 

Nah, offline - but they have had good results making 4" exhaust flow well without being too loud so hopefully one of them will weigh in

For those building their own exhaust systems at home, what is the best way you've found to make accurate cuts on larger diameter stainless?

I've started building a 4" system, using a cold saw (dry type) and it's been a pain in the ass.

@JustinP I just used an angle grinder for mine then finished it on the belt sander to get a perfect mating face. I used a 125mm angle grinder with the thinnest blade I could find. Cuts through it super fast.

can reaper send you an exhaust or do they need the car in the workshop? 

He supplies mufflers to order mate. Measure up what suits you and check out his gear and order up the style you like ?

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
