On a 1.2, definitely stealth.... otherwise you'll just look like a chav.

That's what I was thinking, it sounds nice but doesn't make you look and idiot.

I'm currently looking for a new exhaust, I'm now thinking a K-tec Stealth is my best bet.
Just need to look into this a bit more, anyone know of a good video so i can get a listen?

LOL, this is the best one I have found mate. I think it sounds nice without being too noisy. Just mine my the way now I'll let you no what I think of it once it's fitted if you haven't already bought one

Nice,
Yehh that would be good mate, If I do decide to get one it wont be until next week at least.

Car looks bollox at the moment though.

hi people, just to let you know it took two days for the exhaust to be delivered which i thought was really good. just had it fitted today and it sounds awesome no other word explains it. it pops and baffles when you take you foot of the gas, I would definitely recommend this system.

 

[Jb.]

Sweeet,
How loud would you say it is? I guess its hard to explain it on here but i dont want something stupidly loud as ive already got one too loud on at the minit.

 

[JackJack]

Easy fit mate?

 

[jaye2992]

Which did you go for? the stainless or mild steel?

It can be quite loud the up the revs you go, but driving normally it isn't too bad. I drove it on the motorway yesterday and it wasn't too annoying neither.

I was going to fit it myself but it was raining loads on the weekend so I just saved myself the bother and got it fitted at a local garage for £20. Apparently it isn't too hard to fit though, the biggest problem it getting the old one of and seeing what condition the hangers are in.

 

[Joe#]

Which did you go for? the stainless or mild steel?

I went for mint steel in the end, have you got one?

 

[JackJack]

Oh right its just i heard you have to cut the standard exhaust to get it off. Do you know if the garage had to do this?

 

[jaye2992]

I went for mint steel in the end, have you got one?

No not yet, looking at buying one soon though.

 

[Joe#]

Oh right its just i heard you have to cut the standard exhaust to get it off. Do you know if the garage had to do this?

Yh they had too. But they cut it in a place that I could put the old system back on.

 

[Joe#]

No not yet, looking at buying one soon though.

Yh I'd recommend them, which one are you looking at stainless or mild?

 

[jaye2992]

Both. Not sure which to go for at the moment lol
