I have heard all the bad reputation of this company, BUT I am a bit skint. How wrong can it be? They are cheaper by 12quid than anyone else, but is it worth the saving on what should in theory be the same?
Thanks!

Minispares are holding a VAT free week starting on the 9th. All the kits are slightly different, and from what I've heard the minispares one fits with the least hassle.

I need the kit asap, as the exhaust is blowing like a pig and its MOT is due this week. I have bought from Minispares before, and they take upto a week to even post it, BEFORE delivery times are added. AND its still about the same price from Minispares WITHOUT VAT as Huddersfield with VAT.

Comes with fittings, needle etc. I am not sure if its less than 2", I understand that 1.7/8 is the max size for a smallbore a-series.

i have a 998, was in this dilemma with mine but i opted for the slightly dearer minispares kit and i really can't fault it one bit, dead easy to fit exhaust fits really nicely, i got the single box rc40 sounds great and goes really well. when i looked into getting mine everyone said minispares were the best and i agree hassle free good delivery and quality's brilliant it came with a freeflow manifold which is better than the lcb's some other kits come with as i understand as they are overkill on a small bore, hope it helps. (the kit comes in 1.75") optimum for small bore :)
