Hi basically I am looking to enhance the sound of my Saxo VTR as I do like a bit of a grunt when you accelerate. Performance wise is'nt a massive yes I would like to increase performance but due to having Ice in the car which includes a sub this will hinder any performance gains. So I am looking to maybe fit an induction kit and an exhaust induction kit im pretty much clued up on and have chosen the route and where the cold air feed will go through to. The exhaust how ever I am not so knowledgable. If I want sound more than performance would I be better off getting a back box rather than a full system. and how much performance increase would say a full system give any way.
So questions I would like help with if possible,
1. Which type of exhaust to get,
2. Full or back box exhaust,
3. Will having a different exhaust hinder the MPG loads,
4. What kind of money would I be looking around £160 for back box?, £220 for system? and induction about £150?
Thanks

TBF if u want performance go for a Raceland Manifolrd 4-2-1. around 150. Decat around 40ish and backbox. Up to u. I have scorpion and i love it. And mine is mapped and it uses around 25MPG but i can leave a saxo vts standing :D
