Best exhaust for an FRST?

Postby project_mistral on Wed Apr 20, 2005 7:49 pm

As Above.

What is the best aftermarket exhaust i.e. magnex, scorpion, mongoose etc.

Want a full system i.e turbo back or downpipe back if it is better?

cheers dan

mongoose - loud, unrestrictive

scorpion - loud and $hite! (had one, replaced it with a magnex, car felt ALOT better)

magnex - quiet as fook, unrestrictive

I had a Powerflow and it was rubbish, small in diameter (piping) and fell to bits ...... thats why i changed to a Mongoose

Ive got a Magnex and like said above the Magnex is quiet as fock..

Wish I had chosen for the mongoose, a friend had this system on his xr2i from the cat to back and that already sounded pretty perfect...

Tubetorque m8!!!! OUTSTANDING had one on my car for 10 years and it's a fab bit of kit. They use a thicker grade of stainless steel in their constuction than normal, and it gives a much deeper exhaust note than the usual after market systems.
