   I cant comment cos neither me or any or my mates (with saxos) have either of these, I got a Magnex 3" inward rolled and I think its great. I have heard piper are good but thats it.

   As ive said in another of your threads, the ashley barbles and sounds really nice. Kinda like a magnex decat system at low revs, same note slightly louder though. Need to bend the mounts to sit right. Comparing it to a magnex obvously shows it has a quality sound imo!
   
   Piper is quite loud, imo sounds more of a chav exhaust, so if you like to let poeple know your around have a piper, but i dont think its a quality sound tbh!

    Don't be put of by having to adjust the hangers cause its easy done..just need to loosen the bolts on them.
    
    I've never heard the piper so cant really comment on it.
