New ebay exhaust
« on: 23 May 2011, 17:48 »
Well ive been toying with getting one of these but kept getting outbid.
Finally got it for just £112 which I think is cheap enough.
As I said before I am not after spending silly money on magnex or Miltek but reckon this has to be better than the standard hidden pipes. It sounds like an air leaksince the remap.....not an exhaust :grin:
Has anyone else got one and do you have to cut the rear valance for the tail pipes?

I dont have one but you will probably have to cut the valance a bit. Easy to do though, just get the hacksaw on it, thats what I did  :grin: :grin:

That exhaust would look good through a 4motion rear valance mate.

the tail pipes on these are designed to sit below the valance so would look odd with a 4mo valance!

Looks alright for the money to be honest mate, don't be expecting that extra (up to) 10bhp though, looks damn thin at 2".
