mongoose, i have one and can't fault it, but then i have no experience with scorpion.
can tell ya mongoose is mandrel bent so is continous rather than welded. Read that on the leaflet.

go do a bit of research on how these are constructed and i bet you change your mind!!

its all looks & noise, they are just as restrictive as your standard exhaust

i have a mongoose on my golf & honestly can fault it, fits perfectly, build quality is excellent, and the noise is deep at low rpm's but its not over powering at high rpms

balls, i cant find it

anyhow the jist of it was that Magnex exhausts now re-circulate the gases up to 3 times back & forth leading to a more restrictive exhaust

old magnex systems where straight thru, but apparently they have to changed how they manufacture them

basically they used to be good, but not they aint good except for show
