I'm thinking of getting new cans for my 748e.can anyu-one say if it's best to get them fitted by a dealer or is it easy enough to do yourself?

Depends on your patience it can be a b!"£$%d trying to get them to line up.

Just take your time and have a big nylon mallet to hand.

he's right about the mallet ... as NigelC and Rattler will confirm ... if you get the pipes retail a lot of places will do you a deal on fitting em, what takes us mere mortals 2 hours takes tham twenty odd minutes ...

and dont forget you may need to change the chip as well to suit ...

as yer in Kent, might be worth giving Neil Spalding at Sigma Performance a call ... www.sigmaperformance.co.uk

He's a member of the DSC, just tell him I sent you, he's Tonbridge way ...

Hope that helps some mate ...

Maybe see you at the Oakdene on the 4th ...
