   Just a quick question for you all.
   
   I have a Raceland 4-2-1 manifold and a decat pipe for my VTS but the Magnex exhaust system i was in process of buying has been delayed due to Royal Mail grrrrrrrrrr wont go in to that tho i just wanted to know would it be wise to fit the manifold and decat to the standard system or should i just wait as i've read on the standard system it can make a funny noise?
   
   Advise would be great cheers.

   you could put it on no probs
   
   might aswell wait for it all to be there and do it all at once well i would anyway

   Thats what i was planning on doing but might not have the magnex for around 6 weeks now till Royal Mail have done there stuff so wanted to know if it would be worth while doing the manifold and decat before the system.

   i'd say that the manifold was the hardest part of the exhaust to fit. Can't harm to have that fitted first. The rest will be a cinch

   I'm running around with a raceland and standard exhaust its fine but do look forward to ditching it and seeing what difference the exhaust makes

   Yeah i can see both sides, i had the same thing with mine, my exahust and manifold came and i was waiting on my de-cat. in the end i thought fuck it and fitted the manifold and zorst.... but waiting for the whole lot makes it better as u can stick it all on at once.
