Thinking of getting one of these for my 1.4 16v sport.
http://www.europerformance.co.uk/pages/products/category_results.mhtml?category=piperstainlesssteelcatbypass&car=vauxhallcorsa&manufacturer=piperexhausts&sub_category=1
which one should i go for out of the two?
does having a silencer box lessen the performance from the one without the box??
what gains should i see from installing it, i currently have an inlet and induction kit, where in the rev range will it change??
thank u

if u want it to be louder go for the one without the box mate. u wont find much difference performance with either. be prepared to take it off for M.O.T tho unless its abit on the sly.....

Ask them if it is a silencer or just an imitation cat.
An imitation cat will just have a straight pipe through the middle and wont be any quieter.
