   Me and my mate just fitted a pugsport to my car cos we got bored and its off his rallye atm.
   
   and im not joking but the games were amazing.
   
   it felt so much more responsive and just seemed generally quicker.
   
   it looks complete gash. but im just gona buy a pugsport centre section and put a backbox on it.

   YES! i meant gains.
   
   Well my mate said it felt quicker and kicked more.
   
   and i honestly thought i could feel a difference. could be my head. but id still buy the centre section for 80 quid.
   
   works out cheaper than a magnex.
   
   ill get pics 2moro in the light.
   
   its not staying on. just till his rallye is back on the road.
   
   fitting a 4 branch manifold on tuesday aswell to see if that helps

   The pugsport only comes in decator a very expensive motorsport cat.
   
   Basically the centre section is one looooong peice (inc decat), then you have
   the 2nd peice of the system being the backbox.

    If you just buy the center section and stick a different backbox on it your defeating the objecr of having this system, as alot of the gains come from the pug sport backbox as it generates ALOT of back pressure!!
    
    My mate has one on his mk1 vts it does look silly as the tail pipe is so small, but damn it feels good when your in it, it feels realy heathly, i knows its only an exhaust but it seems to pull realy fooking well!
    
    Oh he also has a decat and when you rev it on idle it bangs like a fire work hehe

    I imagin it hung pretty gash as well, reading alot into this in the past, but I hold judgment till Ive seen it.
    
    I agree with riggsy, that the whole point of the exhaust is that is the complete package and bits will never work aswell as the complete item, but only you or a rolling road can tell if its making a difference or not.
    
    As for fitment a good custom exhaust shop maybe able to slightly tweek the metal pipework so that the pipe hangs correctly and fits well.
    
    Intrested to see the pics

    a pugsport will fit a 16v. as i know atleast 5 people with it.
    
    ive just taken pictures. not doing the video till the cat comes off and stops restricting me
    
    im uploading rolling road vids atm so i cant use photbucket.
    
    but yea its sits really doesnt sit right. duno how much work it would take to get it right.
    
    they do it in a 3 inch. which could look better on the sax.
    
    i can get the centre section for 80 quid

    i agree with 16v them if the engine blows.
    
    but doing it just for more power is annoying. your killing off the rallye IMO.

    Am I right in saying if I was to buy the pugsport centre section, would it meet up with a Magnex or Mongoose backbox?

    it does fit. just the brackets are mounted different. bcos its made to sit under the bumper. i was tempted to get a smoothed back bumper and have it sitting under. or have the brackets bent to make it fit.

    would it be possible to have the tailpipe bent downwards and the recess in the bumper smoothed out? then you'd get the sound and not have to worry about a small pipe.

    LMAO thats so wrong! Nice one giving it a try though.
    
    16v technically isnt better in a Rallye cus you can just strip a GTi to make it even
    lighter than a Rallye if you want to!
    
    Finally the Pugsport fits the 1.4 XSi, 1.6 XSi, S1 Rallye, S2 Rallye and the GTi!

    What do you mean by bending it downwards.
    
    you could smooth it out. but i think it will look shite IMO

    i know why you have fitted it, and suppose it wouldn't be too bad if you smoothed over the whole cutout but why not just get the sax equivilant of the pugport? BTB..

    Its not over yet Rush.
    
    i will make it fit and look good.
    
    im definatly the centre section. and just buy a different back box if i have to. but i wouldnt mind the 3 inch pugsport back box and getting it to sit right.
    
    i set myself this challenge.

    Soz mate, I was just wondering if its possible to either bend or trim the pugsport, and then smooth the recess in the bumper so you can't see the tailpipe. So its hidden in a euro stylee!

    Im really glad you didnt mind me making comments like that, I hate it when other people say stuff about stuff on my car
    
    I reckon get yourself just the back box from www.106parts.com then get a custom exhaust shop to fabricate new hanges and pipe work so it hanges in the correct place, or failing that go for the stainless steel OMP item which has the same look of the PugSport and probally will performe the same
