Im looking at getting a piper one. want an inwardly rolled one though or slash cut. dont like outwardsly rolled ones, there the only ones KAM have got.
So yeah either a 3 or 4" piper backbox
EDIT: forgot to mention, paying the extra few quid for a stainless one too, last longer and have lifetime warrenty.
Soo..supersprint centre from kam £64.99 and a Piper stainless backbox from ??

Kam used to do a 4" one in the supersprint. Was called Magnum iirc. Not sure if he still stocks them.
Overall what do you both want... noise/looks? Not going to get any special performance gains from an exhaust system, in a 1.4 so wouldn't worry about that.

Supersprint 2", loud and raspy. Piper is probably slightly quieter. Ashley systems can be very loud too.
For looks, anything 3"-3.5" looks good imo. Most of them do one of them sizes. Apart from supersprint.

it wont be a magnex thats for sure (sorry if someone mention this im lazy and didnt read the whole thread)
from motorsport world
We are sorry to have to announce that Magnex have gone into administration, so we cannot supply their exhausts any more. We suggest that you look at either Scorpion or Mongoose exhausts instead since they have a very similar ranges at similar prices
we have a 4" slash cut with a straight through is sounds pretty nice tbh not too loud!!
