It come from a full system, so fitting it to a standard center section on a 1.4 would'nt be that "simple" but we done it in the end with a bit of diet coke, liquid metal, a few clamps . oh and a grinder

Its solid

BEFORE (peco big bore 2)







AFTER (Magnex 3" single pipe)








It sounds much nicer, not loud at all unless you put your foot down. I just drilled my airbox and not much difference in sound,maybe a bit beefier

Could do with a few more holes drilling and a decent panel filter. Currently using a cheapo filter from halfords.

Comments please

Thanks

i ran a k+n pannel filter, drilled one large hole into the air box and ran a cold air feed in, sounded nice and worked well
