The Double S ones are good for TDIs - stainless steel, single silencer, replace the downpipe with a non-cat version if you have to and it'll fly.

ive got 4 4inch already with a cherrybomb middle box.thats load enough. i got bored earlier today and throught about a bit of virtual tuning on paint.

u could make the system fairly easily but i rekon 6 4inch would be plenty.

Mine makes the living room windows rattle. Disturbs the local corsaboys too as you don't hear it so much as feeling it...

I have read that too free-flowing an exhaust can cause a drop in power (even with the engine tuned to suit). Is this true or is it another web myth?

if ur into offroading then it looks bent as hell and theres a very high chance you would rip them off which i would enjoy seeing and laughing but if ur using  it for on road use only then it probably wont sound too bad

haveing that many pipes id be tempted to make a new rear bumper in the goldigger4x4 rear winch bumper shape then cut holes through the bumper.

like the single exhuast throught the pto hole on the rear cross member of series landy.

that would make one hell of an exhaust guard

i remember seeing a 90 with twin letterbox exhuasts in lre a few months back . which makes me think they look good on a disco or a lse/brooklands rangie. but i think they want to be wider than this one
