aint that (1 pipe at each side) called dual exit... and twin exit is 2 pipes together like -o-o-------

would be a bit gutted if I said 'can I have a twin exit system' and meant a dual exit hehe...

yea, mine is the red one in the picture at the top. i paid extra to have them route the pipe round the wheel well. it is possible to get the system cheaper tho and just lose your spare wheel. although, for the little extra u pay, it aint worth losing it!

I've used the Top Gear in St Albans for the exhaust on my Corsa and they did a system for our Vivaro too. Definitely one of the better Powerflows.

R U on DRUGS???? loese the wheel well??????? WTF? why on earth would you do this?? and whats this shit about it costing a little more to go around it??? If you dont go round it how much do you think it would cost to remove the wheel well!! come on people think before you ramble complete nads. Maybe on a crappy citren where theres a wheel basket that can be removed you would loes the spare wheel but not on a corsa. Besides how stupid would you look if you got a flat.

Umm, my Corsa has got no spare wheel well. It cost 100 quid to remove it and this is by far the best way to do a centre exit or twin exhaust.
