I had one on my corsa for 3 years and bought it second hand

It looked the part and sound very nice

Never had an issues - they are underated IMO as you don't pay the earth for them

I have a blueflame now which is miles better but is alot more expensive

Peco was cat back and I bought it off a guy on here

It was rob i think who had a blue corsa and lived in manchester while at uni - sou guy

I had a Peco on my old Corsa too, no complaints at all. Looked good, fitted well and showed no signs of rust or giving up. From my experiance I have no idea why they have such a bad name, especially as they are only really a budget option.

How muchos? I'm planning on leaving it standard tbh, and if I was going to tinker I think it'd be remap first.

think it was 300 notes for cat back

The issues is as the exhaust passes under the rear axle its becomes squashed increasing back pressure

Both our cars rev much more freely

His has an APR remap on his. Its pushing 270 - 275 now

I've had a Peco back box on my Corsa for about 4-5 years or so. It still looks like it did the day I bought it, all but a little bit dirtier. I didn't notice much sound difference, but then I'm not really into noisy cars so thats a good thing in my book

nothign wrong with the peco exhausts at all now
sold a few of them and have always fitted spot on and the stainless ones are nice, good welding etc, very well made now.
also can choose between about 10 different tailpipe options depending what your after which is always a bonus.
