I ordered a Magnex system for my Si today,but I'm not sure about putting on the little magnex logo on the tailpipe.I have had one of their exhausts before,but the badge only has double sided tape stuff on it,and it fell off.I superglued it back on twice before I sold the car.Is it cool just to have a stainless exhaust sticking out without the logo,or will ppl think I have got a cheapo nasty exhaust? :rolleyes:

Dunno bout this one mate - probably depends on the size of the exhaust. on a large exhaust , say a 4" id put it on but if its only 3.5" or 3" then id leave it off.

All up 2 you tho matey - oh and you can tell by the sound if its cheapo mate :smile:

It's a 3" exhaust.Hopefully should sound good when I put it together with the cat replacement pipe from crazy dave. I think I might leave it off for the time being then.

On my last car I only had a Magnex back box, it wasn't especially loud,but it did purr nicely.I was kinda hoping having the full system would make it a touch louder,never mind though.
As I said,the badge fell off a couple of times, luckily it always happened where I could find it again and stick it back on :wink:

Do what YOU think is best!

In tuning the main thought is 'to be different'. You want a car that nobody else has. So if you think it is a part of your 'creation' you put it on.

Ofcourse you always can ask fellow tuningmined people's opinion, if you think it's necessary.

It's your car!

I like the fridge idea a lot :lol:
If I'm not gonna stick it on the exhaust I could stick it somewhere else on the car. How about the wiper arm,right in the centre :bonkers:

The wiper bit was a joke - never mind though.
It should be in tomorrow,and will be fitted at the weekend.I'll run around without the badge on it i think.
Thanx 4 the replies.
