been looking around at different systems and peoples opinions, seems that magnex is preferred with scopion not far behind.
just wondering what sort of systems people have? e.g. straight trough with just a back box, twin box system and actual pipework size, 2 or 2.5 inch?

most cars run a 2inch or 2.5inch system as any bigger is waste as the pipe never fills up unless running a bhp monster, i have a custom system which is a decat pipe, straight through center section then the back box, its pretty loud but it pops and bangs i think magnex run a 2box system altho ive never like the look of the magnex backbox

if you want performance then magnex backbox on a supersprint straight through section. work out cheaper that way too

Yeah magnex are the popular choice, I like scorpion personally or the piper systems seem ok.

Im 99% sure the Mongoose is a rebadged Magnex!
Ive seen identical systems for a Saxo VTR side by side and there was no
difference at all!

so a twin box magnex system with 2" pipe work would be a good exhaust?
will hook it up with a de-cat and a 4-2-1 manifold too.

If you had the extra cash and you was looking for this certian look then this is the one . . .

Its abit extreme but in terms of best money can buy this is it.
Personally I feel the Magnex system looks too big, what I mean is the rear siliencer or back box hangs very low and can be seen hanging below the bumper. But apart from the poor look of the system it has been proven time and time to be a good performer :-)
Scorpion, Piper, Janspeed, Supersprint and Remus all list the Saxo too with roughly the same 3"-3.5" tailpipe design, some being slightly louder than others.

Mate your a Legend :y:
Your sooo rite about there being better exhaust than Magnex its just people get hooked up on Brand names 'Magnex' being one.
Ashley systems are great and well priced again I think people avoid them because they are not Stainless Steel but for £150 or less you cant arguee!
Rep coming your way Sir
