Exhausts - Straight through or not?

[Colin]

Hi lads and ladies, got a couple of questions.

1)I want the raspy rally car sound on my Sax, but what exhausts parts do this? Is it a straight through centre section or not?

2)Would a straight through bugger up any performance or would I have to get my ECU remapped for it to perform at its best?

3)I like the look of the Piper and Devil systems. What does the Piper kit exactly consist of? 2 silencers or 1 etc.
Any help would be excellent!
Thanks.

well hesslevtr has a mk2 with a piper system and im sure his has two silencers fitted. the exhaust also sounds really nice. i have a mk1 with decat, miltek middle section (stright through) and magnex back box and this also sounds fine... your choice mate. smileys/smiley4.gif

a straight through pipe (i havent had no probs mk1 vts) shouldnt cause no probs on the ecu

all it does is allows the gases to flow better hench removing the cat and silencer

Cheers guys. Any more advice, please keep posting!
puzzledzippy just ordered a Piper and he had a picture of it. He had 3 sections. One looked like a straight through centre section, backbox, and then a shorter pipe with a silencer.

im sure hesslevtr has got a mid silencer but he has a mk2 with the cat in the manifold... smileys/smiley17.gif

you could very well loose performance from a straight through system > www.gmcmotorsport.co.uk go to exhausts
