I leaning towards the Tanabe but really because it sounds so deep, throaty and 'strange' on vids i've seen. It's a gamble spending money any money on something your not sure of the sound of. i set aside about £900-1000 but thhe less i spend to get a sound i'd like then the better.

Oh, I was just joking -- I mean that anything imported from Japan carries a certain "wow" factor among a certain segment of the population, who are then pleased to pay rather high prices for otherwise inexpensive goods.
I believe in Japan they have a similar fetish for US and Euro parts... grass is always greener elsewhere I suppose
You can definitely find the Tanabe one for less than the RD exhaust, and they are essentially identical (they might even be made by the same manufacturer behind the scenes and just distributed under different brand names...).
Also, you probably could just have a shop weld up what you want by piecing it together -- there's really only a tailpipe, small muffler or resonator, connecting pipe, and a flange -- that's it!
Either way -- good luck
