Magnex

The anni has a magnex...I am not that impressed as it needed some work to stop it fouling the tunnel (I know it's a vr6 system but from my back of my cat it's identical to the vr set up, yet it still gave me issues)

Had no problems with mine at all.
Only problem I have ever had with exhausts (until now) is the middle hanger. The rubber mounts kept perishing and allowing the exhaust to bang on the crossmember. Replaced those with powerflex ones and had no problems since! Approx 7 years ago!

I bought mine secondhand off a forum member.

Way cheaper than new!

Would recommend you hold out for a good second hand system. Could of easily saved a couple of hundred on my Milltek if I waited another few days!

Ill be removing the Sebring twin oval backbox and standard system from my 16v sometime soon if you're interested? I know it's not a full stainless system but still sounded quite good without been intrusive.
