    Mk3 down pipes $100, 2.25 exhaust no cat $690, muffler $150. Sounds wicked...

    Would be a little crisper than my Jetex, at least that's what I figured before I bought mine.
    Probably better value too, as it isn't mirror polish finish.

    Don't expect power gains though (8v owners)
    MK2 - *Insert list of dealer purchased extra's/standard features here*
    80 series - The MK2's BIG, Sooty, polar opposite...
    HAHAHA

    yup, cut it out and continued twin 1.75" into 2.25" through to the 2 original mufflers.

    our cars are a little special coz they're UK imports we legally dont need to have cats
