Lebsteif Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Keep in mind that the decat pipe is for a turbo model, which doesnt fit a NA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris and Alana Posted December 26, 2006 Author Share Posted December 26, 2006 Its just a shame they are not seperate decats so you can put the second cat back in for MOT. I would have one straight away if that was the case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Doom Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 ok.. think i've decided to go for the xs-power one.. just one thing, if it is too loud i would be able to take it to an exhaust place and get them to make a baffle for it, right?... I want it to be loud but i don't want to drive down the street with people putting their fingers in their ears & shaking their heads in disgust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hadyn Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Remember the XS Power zorst is made in the USA (SS Autochrome/Motoria etc) and therefore will probably only fit UK/US spec cars with their different downpipes... They wont mention this as they've probably never fitted the full system to a car in the UK! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Geneb Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Get the XS one , tell ya what i'll make a video tomorrow for you, ask viperrob what he thinks of the XSPower one he tried my car heard the noise and ordered one. and it dont hang its arse out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hadyn Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Yeah but that was from the catback gene, we're talking about their turbo back zorsts (catback zorst that fits NA and TT as well as a double decat pipe ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Yeah but that was from the catback gene, we're talking about their turbo back zorsts (catback zorst that fits NA and TT as well as a double decat pipe ) It'll only be a problem it they're supplying 1st cat replacement pipes, or a single unit that replaces both the 1st and 2nd cats. Cat back exhausts and 2nd cat replacements will be fine. (though I would concerned about quality, they're far from tested and proven here) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hadyn Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 they're supplying a pipe that replaces both cats.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to clarify, i was refering to ordering a 'cat back exhaust', that was mentioned earlier in the thread, before the topic got changed to the 'turbo back exhaust'... It should fit fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boombastictiger Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 I have a XS exhaust, i think if you run a search you should find the sound file I attached.... It sounds amazing, i have not gone decat yet, but it sounds really amazing...Very very clean system, perfect fit, very good weld jobs....Highly recommend it, great value for money..

Dr_Doom Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 I've just ordered one.. once it's fitted i'll post up a video clip. It should sound well with both cats removed and a stainless manifold.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
