Im looking at getting a cat back system in a couple of weeks, I dont want anything too loud but it has to have a nice tone to it.I dont want a magnex system as I think there bollox, ive got a magnex backbox at the moment which will not fit right and looks poo and rattles constantly.
I was thinking powerflow or longlife as they make it there and then and I wouldnt have to fit it myself. I know you hear bad things about powerflow but a few mates have had them, had problems but got them fixed and now they are fine.
Any recomendations?

Think they have other outlets - go on powerflows website and have a look, make sure you end up on the UK one tho.

fitted the magnex today and it went on like a dream, fits really well. Took it out for a drive and it sounds awsome and there feels like there is more torque mid-range
