It will look like a pea shooter, you'd be much better off with twin exit pipes :wink:

Stick with dual exit, i have one on mine and it fills up the gap in the bumper much nicer than single pipes :smug:

The WHOLE of it is where it's at!   :evil:


On the subject of exhausts, single exit looks sweet on older VWs, not sure what they will look like on a mk3 though, the cutout is made for a twin exit..

I've got the scorpion oval and it looks fine, fits the cut out nicely and has a good rumble to it without being silly loud.

heres mine, need to get it sitting higher when i next get it up in the air...

That looks good mate, nice and simple.
I can't adjust mine any higher than it is because it bangs on the floor, i'd like to replace the middle box and adjust it all to fit properly but the mid box is fairly new so i'll wait till it's knackered.

yeah i've had a look under mine this morning, there is room for it to go up about an inch higher, just need to modify the hanger a bit and get a shorter rubber.
