Im thinking of getting a two twin cat back system for my Mk1 VTR, i know that fitting a whole system will increase power slightly, but i have heard that fitting two twins will decrease power, is this true?

how the hell you gonna fit 2 cat back systems? there's only one cat? im guessing you mean a twin outlet either side. if so, then ok,but it runs from one,then into two pipes and then to the back boxes.
wont really decrease power.maybe a slight increase

it could decrease power, if the bore of the exhaust was to large it could decrease power.
Just to confuse you some more smileys/smiley2.gif

depends on the bore before the back box as well, the actual size of the tail pipe usually bears no relation to the bore before it, i.e. a 5 inch tail pipe does not mean a 5 inch bore as that would be completely ridiculous and redundant on most cars

Go with powerflow, thats what I've got, four 4" pipes, didn't decrease the power at all, plus it sounds real deep for a 1.4

Cheers, there r more pics of the car in the pics section. It was £440 for the full s/s system. The advantage of powerflow is that you get to pick exactly how you want it to sound i.e. how loud n how deep, plus it comes with a lifetime warranty
