time for a full system i think want to see some gains in performance! just fitted my bmc and it is quite quiet compared to my piperx, therefore i want a loud system, no i dont mind it being loud when travelling on the motorway as i only use my car for social use!
what would you reccomend i have a quote from carworx at £285 fitted for 2" boar from maniolfd back as my cat is inside that, i dont want to decat it as it will save hassel come mot time
heard bad things about powerflow so dont think i wana go there. a mate of mine has said try exhaustsuk? anyone tried these?
ps my saxo is a vtr 2001 cat in manifold 98bhp model. please help me out as i dont have a clue ....

carworx quote sounds good mate, or a scorpion with 5" suzuka tailpipe. as for powerflow, all depends on the garage which has the franchise, some are alright others are cowboys.

yeh think i will go with carworx then i can get them to make it loud without taking out the cat! if i went with scorpion then it would be a risk!
yeh gona forget about powerflow i have 3of them near me and have heard bad things about every one of them! they do make nice sounding exhuasts though heard one on a saxo vtr and it was only a backbox! smileys/smiley3.gif

Carworx all the way matey. That quote is excellent.
As for Powerflow i Payed £500 for my exhaust and it fell off 3 days later! There workmanship is shite!
Allthough i do agree with seanvtr, they are a Franchise so it does depend. Stay away from Bromley Powerflow!

Yeah Id stay away from powerflow. The carworx deal sounds good. The scorpion suzuka pipe that sean mentioned is very loud without the de-cat!!! smileys/smiley4.gif

i have a stainless system designed for ABPmotorsport by Magnex, i only has the 1 box at the rear with a 3.5" tail pipe, it sounds lush and sits up high under the car to avoid scrapping when lowered. £285 when i got it smileys/smiley2.gif

Little of topic - Got to love the dimma back bumpers.. Always thought they looked the best out of any on the saxo.
