I had one on my 1 litre 12v... straight through centre to a single 3" backbox...
Was mega loud but I liked it lol, Dad made me take it off as I was waking all the neighbours lmao. So now have standard centre box with sportex back box. Sounds abit babba now tbh lol.
Sound well for the money.

hope I helped!

No, IMO 3" is a perfect size for a corsa... That's just my view though. Oright it shouldn't be that loud then and should sound fit on a 1.4!

Edit: Thats with a race tube btw. it will be a lot quieter with a centre box

it's really not i laugh at people with raspy exhausts on their corsa/fiesta/saxo going 20mph revving tghe nuts off the car a nie deep tone is much better.

i often see people with their 1.4 civics and 1.2 corsa round here with mega loud exhausts, its just cringing when ur next to them and they are trying to rev/race. i actually feel embarresed for them,
