   hi SaxP...
   
   i currently have a magnex 3.5" inward rolled BB on my car. But i want to sell this and put my original back on...
   
   the magnex is clamped on atm, and im just wondering, will the original BB be able to clamp on? or does it need to be welded?
   
   i have 1.1 so i have the crappy 'bent' downwards standard exhaust...
   
   thanks alot, Carl..

   I think the Magnex silencer uses a sleeve type fitment where as normally it is a flanged fit. See if you can sell the centre section that is also attached to it or maybe swap with the person buying it.

    i'm not to sure but when you take the magnex of you should be able to get a good idea of size and shape etc
