hi guys ... basically i just want a bit of advice from everyone .. i have now bought a tigra as my corsa was sold .. i have bought a motorbike exhaust(streetfighter) and i want it to come out the side of the tigra just infront of the rear wheel at an angle ... just wondered if anyone knows how they sound roughly ... ive never heard a motorbike exhaust on a car or seen one side exit hence doing it to be different ... just wondering .. do i take the baffle out or leave it in ? ... any advice or comments are welcome good or bad


cheers in advance

Can I ask why you got a motorbike exhaust instead of a conventional car exhaust? It'll probably sound raspy but there are plenty of aftermarket systems that will give you that noise?

I applaud being different and going with the side exit but it may hinder performance depending on the dimensions?

Well I haven't seen it done since anyway. Think he only put it on because it was just lying about.

They do sound rather poopsicle.
There's a reason why nobody is carrying on with that trend.
