Just to add to the general information, a small garage in Poole that I know did the mod for me. http://www.car-servicing-poole.co.uk/index.html . They usually deal in French stuff, but I've been taking cars of various types to them for ages, and they are pretty good. Made a good job of my exhaust for £80, anyway.

Not sure if that's a decent price for this work or not

Thats based on approx 2 hours labour, including removal and refitting the exhaust. Quality of their welding is top drawer, doesn't seem bad to me.

It's potentially a lot of work so for someone to commit to a price has got to be worth it. I've spent longer than 2 hours trying to undo exhaust flange blots in the past. And its a pain in the ass to actually do because of all the angles and stuff.

I've not done the mod on my current car, but this is the exhaust they built for my previous S2k and shows the type of work they do:
