Steve, do you have a standard or aftermarket back box on the car? This would effect the way of things to be done.

If you have an aftermarket box, then I would recommend only doing one of the preposed modifications. I would recommend doing the mid-pipe. Reason being you could/will suffer boost spikes. Not good.

Dont get a downpipe from the US, as it will not fit. Best go to someone like Dragon/Evil Rotor (Ross), ReWorx, Jimmys, WGT.

Cheers Dan,
My car is running the standard backbox and i was hoping to keep it on to keep the noise down.

You shouldnt have any problems then. But just for piece of mind get it checked on a rolling road, to make sure it\'s not running lean.

Should only cost about 30-45 quid for them to check.

How much should you expect to pay for a midpipe Danny? How much for fitting?

Now that I\'m power FC\'d up it\'s next on my list.

Cheers,

Rick

Rick, give Steve a call on 01322 387372. Think they are about Â£100 quid, plus about Â£45 fitting.
