Dave,
Be aware that the hangers have been reported to be poor quality on a number of the Toyosport backboxes.
Not trying to put you off, just better to know beforehand

Its only the hangers on the later TF box that are weak. The box built for the F have the hangers welded on the sides and they appear much stronger than the hangers on the TF box that are welded on the top.
I have the Toyosport box on my F its been there for 3 years now without any problem.

The mark one F and early mark 2 F boxes as mentioned have the hangers welded on the side.I bought a late mark 2/TF box(I was thinking of buying a TF at some point)the box started to crack after about twelve months round the hanger mounts.I had a friend weld it up and it's very strong indeed now.
The toyo is a good sounding exhaust without driving you nuts on long trip I thoroughly recommend it.
Here's a snap of my friends repair.

I haven't seen any on eBay, but jeez, this exhaust hunting is a minefield. 
Ain't it funny, how time slips away...?

I bought my Toyosports back box & manifold on Ebay & as they were auction items [new]. paid £166 & £42 respectively 
Very pleased with both.
You need to look under vehicle products/exhausts & enter MGF. Most are advertised at full price but if you trawl through the lists, there are some up for bids.
