OK i'm gonna buy a new exhaust, which is the best in terms of fit, finish and sound?

Any pics of the tailpipes would be helpful

Cheers

Its a big turbo if it matters.....................

IMO Blueflame, there the makers of mongoose but theirs are slightly different, as they have bolt on flanges instead of slipping it on and clamping it...



Sounds awesome on my mates too!

I ended up buying the Magnex as I didn't want a mega loud exhaust and the Magnex offers the best clearance and fit as it copy's the original systems layout by splitting into two and back into one again. Not fitted it yet so can't comment on the exhaust note yet.. it wasn't cheap thou.. Mike R or Woodford are the cheapest

As Damo has said, see the old thread. - but I would sat mongoose every time! (even though they are a pain to fit apparently?)

I went with the mongoose, because it was a full system from the turbo back replacing the cat. I also liked the simple design and the 3" BORE

Bought it from Amber Performance a few months back, they were doing it for £340 Bargain

Haven't quite fitted it yet though, because I haven't fitted the gearbox, engine etc etc etc

One day next year I might get to hear what it sounds like!
Oh well, back to the cold garage to carry on the rebuild
