   Most people go with a Magnex of some sort on a Saxo.
   
   Good, reliable, well made exhausts. Not noisy at all so you don't sound/look like a twat.
   
   Up to you at the end of the day but I've tried/heard/seen a number of different exhaust and wouldn't change my silenced Magnex de-cat for any of them

   Just go for a catback exhaust from one of them brands.
   
   I dont know what you mean by "straight through" if you mean just a straight pipe then i wouldnt personally as it would be overly loud, and probably wouldnt have very good backpressure and all sorts of other things.
   
   Just choose from a reputable mate, and get one that is a catback (so centre section and a backbox)
