Novitec Quad on Ebay

What do you guys think of this deal on Ebay?

£420 Novitec Quad

I personally like the quad style exhaust but just cant seem to part with £600-£700 for quicksilver one when i could spend the difference towards a holiday.

Some pics on guezen’s GTA can be found Here (GTA with new Novitec exhaust.)

Re: Novitec Quad on Ebay

IMO you get what you pay for. I'd rather spend £600 on a quality Supersprint twin than on a CSC quad, for example.

Not sure what people think about the Novitec. My biggest concern over the quad is the cutting of the bumper - look at the state of guezen's! I'd have a fit if someone bought gave me my car back with the cutout looking like that!

Re: Novitec Quad on Ebay

I agree with you about the cut out Matty, but i will be fitting it with the help of my brother so im pretty confident we can make a good job of it.

I’m going to pop into SC Performance in Taunton at the weekend and see what they suggest for a custom one as they have a pretty good reputation locally.

Re: Novitec Quad on Ebay

Pabloss's got a Raggazon quad on his and has done a cracking job of a custom cut out, with black plastic lip, just like the other side. I think i'll be purchasing a zorst myself sometime this year si its food for thought. My head does say supersprint tho, but then the price puts me off.
Cheers

Thats a good price that barryrs. I like the more standard look of this one. Do you know if they do a quad version?
That silver 147GTA looks well phat in that pic, planted. Nice.

Re: Novitec Quad on Ebay

I think the CSC is one of the better looking ones - although their recently revised design isn't so good. My main concern with CSC is, as Tahir pointed out, the internals.

Which is why I keep coming back to Supersprint. Nice design, and its been properly developed too. Plus they do the manifold, if you later feel flush and decide to get those swapped too! £850 for the quad though
