   iahve had powerflow, magnex and OMP. powerflow isnt for performance though, magnex was ok but looked a bit too 'rudeboy' with the big tailpipe, i now have an OMP group N peashooter

   I got a Magnex on mine! I think its quite good, it aint as loud as some exhausts but does sound nice when you put your'e foot down!

   First you need to work out what your after?
   
   Performance or Style
   
   If its performance then you also need to ask yourself how loud you want your exhaust, if your happy to have a louder exhaust or not.
   
   Magnex
   Janspeed
   Supersprint
   
   Are all round good performers but more on the quiet side.
   
   Piper
   Scorpion
   Mongoose
   
   Are again good all round performers but with a slightly more agrresive exhaust note.
   
   Ahsley
   OMP
   
   Are Very Good performers as they are more directed at competion and Fast Road and are very Loud.
   
   But if your just lookin for a exhaust system that looks good and any performance gain is just an added bonus then you cant go wrong with a Peco system, huge options in regards to tailpipes where as the others your quite limited to either 3" or 4" single round.
   
   Again Custom built exhaust may or maynot be best for performance but generally the people lookin for custom builds are more looking for that extra touch of style rather than a good performer - have it anywhere you want it in any shape or size.
   
   Its a hard one to recommend because its as much a personal taste as any other item for your car!

   Expect to pay anywhere from £250 - £300+ depending on which brand and where you get it from (always shop around). Most of the off the shelf performance exhaust will be Stainless Steel apart from the Ashley and OMP which are Mild Steel but dont be put off as these will easily perform as well as the Stainless items.
