Good choice, especially the colour.

Is it running a standard exhaust?

Currently yes...

By next season, no...

Just haven't got £700-£2000+ to drop on an exhaust right now, but I'm starting a new job in the new year and should have a little bit of cash to spend...

There are a few options, they start at ~£400 for one from eastern europe but it looks terrible

JCE is the default budget choice, UK made but rare second hand, £700 new - looking like the likely choice

Akrapovics start at ~£700 used, new they're ridiculous money, think £2000

Still, stock it sounds pretty raucous, and when I do trackdays even with the baffle in the JCE and Akrapovic can easily fail noise testing...
