   im going to be gettin a Piper cat back 3.5 inch inwardly rolled on my VTR when i get it in July. I have chosen the Piper over the Magnex just to be a bit different as a lot of people have the Magnex. Iv searched the forum and found some good info but not exactly wat im lookin for.
   First of all,anyone with a Piper, pics?
   What does it sound like compared to the magnex? vids?
   Gains? bhp
   Good fit?? etc
   Cheers

   Thats my piper outward rolled 3.5", to be honest man a exhaust won't get you a massive increase in power, you get more power from assisting the new zaust with a de-cat manifold. With a decent indution kit you should see around 10bhp. That what i got anyway, but that was with my magnex fitted not piper, still i assume they are around the same performance wise.
   
   
   
   Thats mine, fit is great.

   I've got a Piper system on mine, but with the oval tail-pipe.
   
   From what i found out when looking into it there is hardly any difference between the Magnex & Piper systems. Both sound pretty good & give the same kind of gain (although as Cloud says this is not much).

   how do they compare to some of the cat replacement systems as we have just become a stockist for Piper products and are looking into what works well so we will stock it

   Soulless has just got himself the outwarly rolled piper and he's 'Loving it Loving it Loving it' lol
   
   Compair prices before purchasing as I found my 4-1 Piper manifold cheapest from www.speedbox.co.uk I recommended them to Soulless not sure where he got his from in the end.
   
   If Kams cheaper Id say get it from Kam
   
   Kam - Will you be stocking a full range? including Manifolds?

    Aluminised steel. Its like an anti rust coating to stop it corroding so shouldnt fall apart in a year.

    May I suggest (Kam-Racing) you compair your forth coming prices with www.speedbox.co.uk if you can come even on price Im sure Saxp members would go with a trusted partner but if you can under cut them that would be amazing
    
    When will the items be added to your site?

    I could buy the supersprint elsewhere for cheaper,
    but couldnt be happier with KamRacings service.
    top top company.

    Top stuff Kam-Racing
    
    Kam-Racing your One-Stop Saxo Shop! lol
    
    Good to see you expanding you product list, was it easy to get access to Piper parts and become a supply of their items? Does this also mean your be able to stock Piper Cams and Pullies?

    Yeah it was relativly simple. Give them a phonecall, then send a letter on our official letterheaded paper lol We will be stocking their cams and pullies too though we will probably be focusing on other brands in the future for cams.
    
    Saxo owners seem to be some of the most enthusiastic car modders out there at the moment (especially with track and high performance cars) so its great fun to get involved with you guys :d
