Been looking about for a straight through complete pipe for my car. I know many people say that these engines don't create enough compression for it to be worth it, but is that actually true?

Also doe's anyone even know where i can buy one from? Been looking and i can only seem to find after cat pipes not full ones. Found a 1.4 straight through, any chance that would fit. Don't know how they differ underneath ya see.

cheap fix buy a 1.1 mk2 center pipe (that will give you a straight pipe from manifold to back box, then just fit a back box of your choice

there are loads of striaght through exhasuts available, any saxo exhasut will fit on your car

well i did think that, but on the pictures, how the back end of the pipe bends it looks different to how my one is. But you say it will still fit yeah?

Don't do it you will get sick of attracting the wrong kind of attention (rozzers) in other words. a know someone that had it done they sound horrid bud. As said get a nice decat and a decent back box and it should sound decent ..... Not like farting in a empty bean tin.

Well i will be trying to avoid that, hence trying to get some info on bits before i buy you know. Not in no rush really.
