from personal experience i think that you'll not notice much if any performance difference between most straight through pipes , i think it's more about looks & quality . one things for sure , take the fucking baffles out lolsir digby wrote:Thanks for the welcome chaps its just getting a service and a data tool alarm put on I cant bloody wait but after reading the posts of u lot moaning about the original exhaust on here iam now thinking of buying a exhaust slip on.
