exhaust system
« on: 16 July 2009, 22:58 »
Been offered a full magnex exuast system for my h reg 1.6 driver.


Its a 16v exhaust system but he only wants 20 quid for it.

I'm not sure mate. But it'd be good to know as I'm currently on the lookout for an exhaust for my 8V.

Reducer sleeve required fron the down pipe mating to the front pipe and you may need to perform some surgery on rear valance where tail pipe pokes out from..

16v bore is 2.25", driver is something like 1.75", but it should physically fit the car once you find an adaptor
