FRP pads are from a focus, forget now which yr & model. Look for a mintex brake box.

FRP colour is imperial blue.

Not 100% sure that Ford have any centre sections left, I think they have run out ja_stupid.gif
Code is 9087878
The Piper kit is interchangeable I think with the OEM manifold and backbox.

Paint code is mentioned here clicky me

I think Piper, via PumaBuild is your only option, aside from people breaking FRP's.

I think the Miltek mid section is also interchangeable, but when I spoke to Tony at Pumaspeed he told me they weren't available on their own.

Given that the Ford mid section included the sportcat and wasn't cheap, you might be as well to get a new Milltek system with your existing sport cat fitted to the front end. Given that PumaSpeed are only in Wakefield, you would probably be well advised to give Tony a call, if only for advice.

The piper is a pretty good replica of the OEM system in stainless I understand, so the centre section comes with a sports cat and will I gather just bolt in direct placement of the original centre section. Good price too.
But try Ford first they may have an OEM just to check the stock levels smile.gif

Lastly you may be able to get a Janspeed centre section, but you would have to be a member of RPOC for that I suspect. That to is stainless steel and was made on the original jigs.

Well funny enough it was tony who inspected it and said it needed replacing and quoted a price , didnt mention any issues being able to get the part etc , then spoke to a friend who is great with cars and he said he would fit it me for nothing if i can get him the part , ...this is very confusing now lol laugh.gif

Interesting, well try to shop around a bit, even if it is only PumaSpeed and PumaBuild.

Beware of what either might charge for "fitting kits" the fire ring is a standard Bosal part, available from any exhaust place for a couple of quid, and aside from that, there isn't much to it.

You will have to reuse your existing fitting kit, brackets and spring bolts etc. So take them off with care even if you do buy a new O ring.
