As many of you know, I am intending on running the engine in the trav in a mild state of tune,
Currently I have the inlet side of things sorted (Hif 38, K&N filter and minisport manifold - cheers Onne!) I'm also hoping to procure a 295 head but I have no idea what I can do with the exhaust, as I would imagine that would now be the major stumbling block.
Any ideas what I could use?

Get a Maniflow system & 3 branch manifold. They flow better and are much better built than the 'Falcon' systems that we've all had so much 'fun' with
If I was doing mine again, I'd go Maniflow.

where do you get a maniflow and three branch system?

Just stick with the standard system for that 'mild' state of tune. My engine has a much better head (12g940) and it's fine on the standard system. probably slightly strangled - but it runs perfectly ok.

Just get the manifold and then make up a system yourself - 6 feet of straight pipe and silencer - should be pretty cheap.
