anyone got both these prefably with standard backbox. what gain did you get or none?

would you loose any back pressure? thus performance?

looking at getting a decat without silencer and straight throu centre section. just wondered what everyone else had

basically i need a new middle section,

and found these cheap.

so they would hinder performance?

is the centre pipe worth having its the remus one or shall i just go standard?

I have no cat, and a straight through system into two 6x4 tailboxes.

2" splitting into two 44mm pipes to the rear cans..

My engine is noisey than my exhaust. Its not very loud at all, but it depends what tailpipe you have. Mines never been loud, just a nice drone on de-acceleration.

By removing the restrictions top end power should increase but you'll loose mid to bottom end torque (from my experience with playing about with a 1.4 16v Sport Engine)

Raspy as fook without a centre box. biggest mistake I made on the exhaust front on mine, I had no silencing til the rear box, and it wasnt loud, it just sounded shite.
