as far as lengths and dimensions go, its spot on, no knocking etc on anything, I will say, its SUPER light too!!! - Pipework diameter is all good to, no restrictions.
only slight issue I had with mine was the sleeve where the back box slides over the centre section wasn't the best so the clamp even when ramped tight, didn't seal perfectly, I'm going to get my mate to weld a few flanges on so I can just bolt it tight, but its been fine for over a year like that and hasn't physically come loose!
this is the only video I've got of it! - keep in mind it also has a decat
Hi mate, sorry to bring up an old thread but the link on your original reply has expired so I was wondering if you could tell me what exhaust you went for on your car please? I'm looking to replace my terrible Ktec stealth system with as close to standard as possible or at least some quieter like yours so any advice would be great. Cheers. Ben

spot on thanks mate, I think I might take a punt on that hoffman exhaust as it's a reasonable enough price. I'll let you know if it fits!it looks very much like one of these mate:

Afternoon all, so the Hoffmann eBay spec exhaust is now fitted and I’ve retained the Ktec sports cat and it fits pretty well.👍

Hello there,
i am about to get one muffler of these or Klarius and I wanted to ask how quieter it got since I also come from a loud custom and have a 200 cat.
Thank you!
Hello, swapping the k-tec stealth cat back system for a standard one has made a big difference and it’s much quieter now. I’ve since removed my sports cat is it was failing, so I now have a standard replacement CAT on the car as well and it’s spot on. My neighbours are certainly happy about it too as I was waking everyone one up on my street with my previous exhaust setup!😂

Perfect!
Any changes on response?

A small drop in performance, which was to be expected, especially going from the sports cat back to a more restrictive OE cat, but she's still a French Flyer at the top end!

Oh I see… so mostly at the low end. You believe with the sports cat would be no drop?
when I had the sports cat fitted there was a bit more punch in the lower end of the range but not a big difference really. The biggest difference was the noise increase vs standard. If you want a louder setup you could try a sports cat and standard cat back setup on yours first to see if you like it, because a full system is loud and I found it annoying on longer trips like the daily commute.

now i have a 200 metallic cat, long inox resonator and i am about to change from an asso muffler to a standard like one
