Theres a place in Somerton Park called Exhaust Dynamics but the guy wasnt very accomodating on the phone ... so Im disinclined to go there.

Hi , am looking for an exhaust place as well . I own a alfa Romeo 159 2.2 . Everything seems to be in the UK or Germany.  Did you find any in adelaide?

Depends on what you are looking for. I went to exhaust dynamics for a quote - $2.5k would get me some hand bent pipes for the GTV6... instead I ordered CSC headers from the UK and took them to a local fitter who installed them for me. EB Spares shipped super quick (like 4 days from ordering to my doorstep) and waaay cheaper than anything from the US.

I then decided that I wanted to take out the resonators and just go straight pipe so took it to a different exhaust shop and they cut out and welded in new sections and all is good.

There are plenty of shops out there that can help if you want to just patch up, or they can install or the specialist shops like exhaust dynamics can build a custom exhaust... I just used google to find the various shops.
'83 GTV6 - 3.0 is in! Ohhh yeah!
'99 156 T-spark - Formula 98 ready!

What do people do with their old 2.5...?

I got in touch with this crowd:

https://www.rickos.com.au/

I was very happy with the general demeanour of the guy so will take the work there.

Saying that ... havent had the work done yet so cant speak to that.

Wanted to update this one for anyone needing any performance work ...

Simon at Rickos is great.  He did my exhaust but is now my "go to" guy for anything else.

He has a wealth of contacts as well.
