   My exhaust is rusty and looks so shite! Need a new one, should I get a full system thingy or just a backbox? What are the price differences like? I have a powerflow backbox but it's fooking huge (like 3") which isn't me, don't want a chav mobile, I like the stock stainless steel exhausts on like 2006 astras (maybe earlier seen a few on 08 plate corsa's) kinda oval shaped not too big. Sorry rambling lol. My mate said it's 'blowing' at high revs, it doesnt sound good.
   
   
   Regards,
   Ryan.

   piper do a full system with oval tip for around 250-300 quid which is quite a small tip compared to most aftermarket ones, it all depends what your price range is and what you want out of it really.

   £300, back box it is..
   
   I thought de-catting made it sound like a tractor, and won't it fail it's MOT with higher emissions? Excuse me if I'm chatting out my arse I don't know much about cars lol.
