One with a 2.0l 16v engine attached to the front of it?
Nah, seriously, unless you want custom, I'd go for Sebring or Magnex cat back systems, have Sebring on mine and it's great...

If u get a Sebring u'll need to replace or remove the center silencer...Magnex are pretty loud & Scorpion.

Get a scorpion back box, remove the centre section and get an after market induction kit.
I have a powertec induction kit sl1x.....probably one of the biggest inductions made. Look here:
The backbox i have is Scorpion Imola..and centre section removed.
Sounds very deep and very nice.....something id definatley recommend. But there are plenty of other induction kits out there. Some also say drill your airbox. Your choice.

Get your centre section removed from any exhaust garage. There is like 10 places per town that do it. Just look for a kwik fit or something. Will cost no more than £50 so just phone around

ive got a sebring backbox on mine, it sounded great with normal 1.2 8v engine in. had a BFO cone on that, also made it sound rather sweet.
done an 20xe conv kept the same backbox, took away the CAT sounded even more awesome. fitted the BFO cone on the valver (yes, honestly!!) and to be perfectly honest it didnt sound any better. so hacked away at the standard airbox, took all the restrictions off it and chopped off the little catch box on the left side, and went back to panel filter. sounds bloody grrrreeeaat!! just about to order a panel filter for it, gonna post a poll up me thinks
