   Hi, i while ago i bought a milltek sports perforance exhaust for my saxo its a dual output one with milltek stamped on both the 4" pipes..
   
   well the question i have is.. its made for a VTS/VTR saxo.. but i stuck it on my 1.1i, it sounds great IMO and the thing i was wondering is.. the exhaust always pops back very loudly when i slow down and speedup etc.. especially in first when pulling away. and i like it lots. i was wondering has this to do with the engine or the exhauts or the air filter.. becuase i am going to be changing my engine soon and i was wondering if it will still pop back. because i will be disapoinmted if it doesnt..
   
   any advice would be appriciated.. thanks

   Happens in mine to bud, think it occurs when the decat is removed.
   Once the engine is warm it normally pops when dropping down the gears.
   
   Nah as long as you keep the cat bypass pipe on it then it will still occur
   when you get the new engine.

   Yea doubt there will be any change from a different engine.
   Slapping a Turbo kit onto it though mate make the exhaust do more
   exciting things perhaps.

    you cant get a turbo from Halfords that takes up 20 mins to fit mate, if your wanting flames just get a flamer kit and watch your eyebrows.
    
    get some pictures up mate!

    i am aware of that, turbo kits cost thosands, which i have saved up and i might consider getting one installed by a friend who has installed many turbo systems..

    A 1.1 Saxo with a VTS Turbo would be crazy lol.
    Give Greensaxo something to worry about (has a VTS engine in a basic shape
    saxo)
