Time for a new exhaust
« on: 30 October 2007, 13:50 »
So driving back from Aberdeen this morning i noticed the car making a much louder noise than normal on loser inpection i discovered a hole just before the back box. I think its probably time to upgrade and change the entire exhaust system  for a nice shiny new stainless steel job  :cool: Can any of you guys recommend any particular brand. I'll be focused more on power gain than boy racer noise and be looking to spend at most £300. Oh any my gti is an 8v.

Cheers

-Chris

Mongoose are top of the tree for me....although the one i won on ebay was for a mk 4 so thats going on my mk 4

im now in the market for one for my mk 3, mongoose i think it will be and second on my list is a magnex or maybe a scorpion.

powerflow in leeds say it would be 320 cash for a cat back system fitted...thats for a mk 3 8v...
i spoke to them the other day about my mk 4 mongoose back box i need fitting so asked them about their mk 3 systems..

Magnex is your best bet for a non boy racer sound, they're pretty quiet. twin 3" backbox look the best on a mk3
