I have a the regular aluminised Jetex system and like it very much. A nice exhaust note and not too intrusive.



I used to have a Scorpion stainless system on my Corrado, which was lowered on an adjustable Koni kit. This of course reduces the gap between the torsion beam and the floorpan making it tighter for a larger system to feed through. The extra weight of the stainless system in time stretched the rubber hangers causing the exhaust to sag and bang on the torsion beam. Therefore I was regularly renewing the rubber hangers. :banghead:

I have the same as DubPartz, lovely system and nice exhaust note. When accelerating hard the sound is epic, but not loud. When cruising on the motorway at 70mph hardly hear it at all until you put your footdown LOL :wink:

I'm running a BR Motorsport 2.0L 152bhp conversion with K-star ECU around 160bhp. Love it a real joy to drive.

I run a Jetex 2.5" on my G60 (not the one shown) Its the one they used on the Slick 50 Cup. I bought direct from Jetex with no problems, good fit, mine is a little loud but suits the car perfectly.

I've asked if the systems fitting kit includes a reducer so it connects to my ashley 4 branch

system is 2.5 and the 4 branch 2.25

think i going to get the aluminised system that the same company sells

They usually come with a reducer but not sure you would need one. I have a standard set of downpipes and didn't need to use it. I'd asssumed it was for use with smaller engined cars. :dontknow:

Yeah they do a 2in system which is probs what you have looking at your tailpipe aswell so that would bolt straight up.

The 2.5 aluminized system has an 70/90mm oval tailpipe.

If the reply i get is good then i'll order the 2.5 today so it'll be here ready for the 16v swap sometime next week  :D
