I didn't understand a word of that, but with it being a mk2, the oil filter gets in the way, so you need to either move it, or buy a 4-1. Differences between the 4-2-1 and the 4-1 are so slight, there's no point even going down that route of explaining.
The second lambda sensor needs to be sleeved, so that the car doesn't show the ecu light and go into limp mode.

car looks bloody good for a 1.1 nice work :y: As said just get a new exhaust system (supersprint full system should be very loud with decat) keep the induction kit on there and make sure it gets a good feed of cold air.

If your getting a manifold, the raceland 4-1 for the mk2 is good (get it from kam racing).
No need to move oil filter and the second lambda doesnt need to be sleeved as the manifold will have 2 lambda holes or at least mine does.

Just buy a decent backbox
I reccomend sportex for 1.1, nice low tone :)

Ever heard of cherry bomb exhaust. You banger them on eBay just search forcherry bomber n u should find one. They steam American company and their exhausts are some of the nicest sounding around IMO. They are pretty much straight thru pipe with an inch of fiberglass round the outside. Sweet
