[Furio-92]

What are peoples opinions on sportex? Was looking for a centre section on eGay, found a centre section for a decent price. Its not just cheap crap is it? Thanks

i think the quality of it aint bad. (have a backbox in the same make)

[Furio-92]

Thanks mate, You think the centre section would be a good buy for £60?

yes thats the one mate, for the price you cant really go wrong i used to have one on my old vtr.

cheap & loud

[SaxoVTRben]

as above though, loud and very raspy can get a bit annoying especially if you have decat mani but as said they good for the price

[Furio-92]

Thanks people. Bought it now :)

[JamesR]

Very good exhausts, been saying it for years lol

Good value, good fitment, good looks, pretty good sound, if you get the full system then a nice little increase in power - Can't go wrong :)

[Furio-92]

Cheers james. Not expecting too much noise from it though, Still have cat in manifold

[Prickle]

mines got a canny noise with 2 cats in tbh lol. not braaap, more like BRAAAP. lols.

sounds good though and as james said good value.

[Furio-92]

Thanks lads, Will hopefully have the saxo back for when it arrives :)

[Ryanoo]

Great help on this thread, I think my centre section is a bodge-job... So probably going to buy this aswell. Ty to Furio-92 for the thread :D

[Furio-92]

No problem bud :)

I think you will be surprised ;)

Mine made a good deep tone with just a backbox :homme:

Really? Didnt think it would have. I've got a magnex back box, but its a 3.5'' tip :/

[logic_guy]

I've got a back box and it pops and gurgles nicely. Sound very good too

[b0t13]

itll be fine and tbh its a good price!

ive seen a second hand system and the fit is very good and quality to match, sounds loud but not crazy loud tbh

[Furio-92]

This came today, Has a few scratches on it, and isn't stamped either :/

[Prickle]

mine wasnt, had a sportex sticker on though. not really a big deal as who looks for stamps on exhausts lol.

How do you know it is sportex then if it isn't stamped...? Think that is what he is trying to get at.

[Karlb1]

if it has a few scratches it might be an itemthat was returned so used before, might have scuffed a speeadbump or something. call sportex and ask them why there's no sticker, stamp and why thre's marks on it, you paid the brand new price to get a brand new one after all..

:zainy:

Obvious answer to that.

[Furio-92]

E-mailed them about it, hate talking on the phone :P
