My valver had a scorpion system when I bought it and it was shagged. As soon as I put the magnex on there it absolutely flew, it could be making a massive differance. I know it did on my car.

On the inside there is a mess type construction that hold wadding matterial on the inside circumferance of the exhaust in the box's. I think its to prevent resonation. When it comes out it basically means youve got an empty bean can as a silencer. This changes your pipe diameter and the flow dynamics and can alter back pressure. The wadding could get stuck in the pipe and block it. Scorpion exhausts are renowned for it.

I can get a 'Walker' copy of the original back box for 74 quid fitted. Anyone know if this would be an ok move for a temporary fix until i can find a better alternaltive?
