Exclamation Recommendations for New Exhaust please..

hi there, I need an Exhuast for my 95/M T-5R.. could anybody who has a performance exhuast fitted please help me as I'm stuck and not sure what to buy..

At the moment I'm looking for just cat back but may sway towards performance cat replacement. I don't really want to be taking cat off (straight through) then having to put it back on for the yearly test, however if this is a great way of getting her breathing correctly then I might.. would love a rare or unique system from the cat but not sure of the availability/price of people like Devil, Magnex etc. and if they are any good for my Swedish beast....

Any help greatly appreciated, cheers... Scott..

Excellent, thanks for the advice.. Are you getting it from Don and what sort of money is it?? Let me know how it goes...

I have seen a couple on ebay, Scorpion ones but have no real idea what they look or sound like.. I don't want it to be too loud but still want a bit extra (cake and eat it)...

Are there any really noisy ones out there and do they affect the running of this lovely 5 pot...

Scott

The BSR/Jetex are nice if you're on a budget - you do get what you pay for but I had one and they definitely improve the sound and breathing of the car.

Ferrita are the mutts nuts and if I had the money for a full Ferrita system (inc downpipe and sports cat) that is the way I would have gone, but I didn't have the cash and I was far from dissapointed with the BSR I had fitted given the price.

Cheers,
John

Thanks John, I think the Ferrita is the way forward at the mo, I was pricing one up just needed to be sure if there was something else a little special out there including a bespoke stainless system..

Well Scott,as said allready if you want the best get a Ferrita(full system),mine's one for about 2 years now and still loving it.

The downpipe really transforms the car,it goes like stink(have you had yours chipped yet,if so it's a must)

You could try JT-Tuning over in Sweden...you can get a full Turbo back system delivered in 3" all the way for around the £400 mark
