Longy Posted February 15, 2003 Share Posted February 15, 2003 I'm just about to buy a Full exhaust system (cat back) and I wanna know which one is best. I want a loud deep growl I know the Magnex is 4" , but I have heard its quiet? and the powerflow is whatever I want (maybe 5"?) anyone had probs with either one? I've heard powerflow rusts? sounds tinny? Please help A.S.A.P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waxmonkey Posted February 15, 2003 Share Posted February 15, 2003 I thought it was illegal for cars made after 1994 not to have a cat? (how bout that! an intelligent question\statement) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee R Posted February 15, 2003 Share Posted February 15, 2003 remember Paulo had a bad with the 'dealer', and that is the only complaint i've ever heard about them myself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRic Posted February 16, 2003 Share Posted February 16, 2003 I've got a Magnex wait tis quiet when you're going easy or on the motorway but got a decent rip when you get to higher revs..............perfect imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Posted February 16, 2003 Share Posted February 16, 2003 I thought it was illegal for cars made after 1994 not to have a cat? (how bout that! an intelligent question\statement) oh my god wax you ok Your close its 1992, so all those that remove the cat will need to refit it every time for the MOT :thing: Seen to many poor looking powerflow systems Magnex is much betterMongoose Scorpion sound excellent but apparently are a little restrictive (dont know if this is just said to be on turbo cars though) I still reckon it sounds the best.

Pelles Posted February 16, 2003 Share Posted February 16, 2003 get a Tiger exhaust system, thats what ive got.....sounds really amazing......the S/S is better quality than of powerflow, at the garage where i got mine fitted, they showed me a 1 and a half year old powerflow system, the whole thing was rusted, then they showed me a 1 and a half year old tiger system, thing was in good condition.....so im happy with mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Posted February 16, 2003 Share Posted February 16, 2003 Go for Powerflow, top stuff! I had nice done about 4 months ago, and the more I drive, the better it gets! I breaks in really nicely, get anything you want built, just make sure you get a dealer that other people have been happy with. I walked straight into mine and asked em to make my 1.4 Escort sound like a V8 at tick over and a single 4 inch polished oval and buy crhist, they did it, if your getting a full system, the world's your oyster!
