Ok sall i get a irmscher back box, which i know suits the rear bumper im going to get, but might sound crap unless i get a centre section made up

or

Get a Bastuck full exhaust system from regal? My friends dad has one of these on his Astra GSi and it sounds minted, not like boy racer, just a lovaly note, This in some cases has been proven to add 20bhp to the car...

Cheers

the 20 bhp increase will be on a turbocar which had a fucked zoorst in the first place, plus it no doubt included a decat pipe also.

yeah 2.5 inch is way too big for a N/A car.

guy at work has the irmscher back box on his corsa c sxi and to be honest he doesnt recon it made any noise difference just looks pretty.

I have a bastuck system on my corsa B, it was a bastard to fit, doesnt seal right and is really really loud, it was bent totally out of shape on the plane from England and took a lot to get it onto the car. Wouldnt do it again.

Why did you even attempt to fit damaged goods to your car? No wonder it was a bastard to fit

It was hard to fit besides the parts that were damaged, the different sections wouldnt fit together, the wider side wasnt wide enough. It took the bones of a month to get from Regal to Ireland, i wasnt willing to wait another month or more, my mechanic bent it back into shape quite well, The fitting problems were mainly caused by the factory finish of the system.
