Exhaust Choice advice

[bossman9]

Hi guys,
Wanting a little more power, and a nice sound, was thinking new exhaust route but want it to remain legal for mot's n that. So would i be right in saying buy a sports centre section and back box because the cats in a mk2 vtr are located by manifold?? cheers for any advice

cat is normally under the car, followed by a center section an then a bb, i personally liked the look of a magnex bb and a sports center but try kam racing for the exhaust systems as they are pukka

[mlawlan69]

on mk2 the cat is in the manifold

on mk1 the cat is under the car

on vts the cats are under the car regardless of mk....

i have a mk2 furio with full supersprint on, sounds great even with a cat on!

well whats the budget?

£240 from kam racing iirc, best zorst out there

I like the look of the kam racing supersprint exhaust centre section, would you.recomend the backbox to go with it or soming else, also how does it sound/ a small power gain? Once again thanks for advice.

we dont have stock of the centre pipes (http://www.kamracing.co.uk/citroen/citroen-saxo/saxo-exhaust/exhaust-pipes/citroen-saxo-kam-racing-race-centre-pipe.html) just yet. We are getting a new batch manufactured and these are about 10 days away.
Combined with the backbox you should see a gain of around 5-6bhp. If you can afford an aftermarket manifold (http://www.kamracing.co.uk/citroen/citroen-saxo/saxo-exhaust/exhaust-manifold/piper-4-1-exhaust-manifold-citroen-saxo-8v.html) such as the Piper 4-1 (http://www.kamracing.co.uk/citroen/citroen-saxo/saxo-exhaust/exhaust-manifold/piper-4-1-exhaust-manifold-citroen-saxo-8v.html) or Supersprint 4-2-1 (http://www.kamracing.co.uk/citroen/citroen-saxo/saxo-exhaust/exhaust-manifold/supersprint-inox-race-manifold-citroen-saxo-8v.html) as well to remove the cat you are looking at another gain of 8bhp

cheers slugshead, what setup do you currently have exhaust wise? i was thinkin of keeping mani with cat, staright trough (no silencer) nd then new backbox. cheers

[Slugshead]

atm, its a supersprint 4-2-1, custom center section and 3" backbox (Baffles are fooked in it and I got the exhaust for nothing) its immense lol, people turn around expecting to see a skyline and then i get a look of dissapointment as they realise it's just a saxo

[bossman9]

haha nice, i can imagine. cheers for adivce pal

[Slugshead]

New I had one somewhere of how it sounds now
