Im told i have a 2 peice exhaust on my car,
The centre section has more holes than a sive..... and i was going to get power flow to make a new section with no middle box :S they quoted me Ԛ£70 and then getting a scorpion rear box?
Or should i change the whole system to a 3 peice?
What would you guys do? there seams to be a lot mor 3 peice stuff about? or am i wrong? whats better?

personal preference fella, and price aswell ;)
if your thinking about a new system them ask a poll, and get a price
a one peice straight through 80mm twin pipe in stainless steel would be nice though

different downpipe and thats about it, BUT, you cant mix'n'match 2 and 3 piece systems - a 2 piece system is as follows.....
Piece 1 - downpipe,centre section and about 6" of pipe after the centre section.
Piece 2 - Everything from the centre section all the way back to the tail pipes.
a 3 piece system is as follows....
Piece 1 - Downpipes that terminate just behind the gearbox.
Piece 2 - Centre section down as far as the petrol tank
Piece 3 - From tail pipes to the petrol tank.
I can take a pic of a 3 piece system for you so you know how it splits up if you want. Hang on, i may have pictures of my Larini on the net somewhere,.... gimme a minute....

3 piece systems are cheaper to replace, the reason behind the different types is because they introduced the catso redesigned the system, this is when the 2 piece system was used.

ah excellent, because i wanted a middle section for my 2 peice and it appreas to be the most expensive,
So i take it the 3 peice uses the same mounts?? and same manifold?
Anyone got one for sale?
