Hey guys,
Few days ago I had to do some "these and those" under the car and it went out that my exhaust from midbox is corroded as hell and was cause of "raceish" sound
. There's a necessity of replacing both mid and backbox so I've got some questions for ya.
- What diameter is standard ph3 1.8 exhaust? Is it the same as S16 and GTI-6?
- Does it makes sense to increase the diameter of exhaust in such restrictive engine? If yes, what should I change to make some gains - if it's even possible?
- Do you know any backbox that fits P&P on this model? I hate jiggly-wiggly boxes hitting the chassis and bumper so it would be nice if it had peugeot mounts or was simply adaptable on this model.
Half of exhaust being corroded is a nice chance to redo whole exhaust - just need an advice if it's worth it. It's also important to me to not pay 200 pounds for backbox just because it's "sporty" - I can spent about 80-90 pounds for whole operation, and stock middle and backbox costs about 55 pounds here in Poland. Of course loudness of system is very important - I want it to be just a bit louder than stock because I cruise a lot on a highway and it will f*ck my head through the ear if I mount some cheap, nonsense, tuning sh*t.
Every opinion counts!
