CJ 16v

Thorpey, yes - it was a good bit cheaper.

Ordered a Jetex. Same tailpipe as Scorpion, and I got a great deal, hard to say no.

Damn - my head's pickled again - AAAAARGH! I have to buy one or the other tomorrow, hell or high water - it's doing my head in! I hate not knowing what to do.....

Yeah, but yours has cams, headwork, manifolds...... That has to be a factor, doesn't it? Don't get me wrong - I'm keen to hear your opinion, but my car will only have a 57i kit.

I think I've reached a decision after talking to a lot of people... ...and it's that I want the Scorpion for looks and that bit of rough in the sound dept. I'm sure I'll fetch some flak, but a mate had a Scorpion on his Saab turbo (big power modded) for 8 years and it was sweet, and another mate had them on clios, and e36 bimmer coupe and more, and never had a single complaint - and he's a fussy 'stard too. I've NO doubt that the Milltek is a good system, and I will not knock it. It's just that many people say it's barely louder than std (I want a bit more than that) and the main thing is that the one peice you see - the pipe - looks pants on the Milltek to my eye. I'd spend days looking at it and wondering if my local powerflow guy could chop it off and weld on a boxer type letterbox pipe. And that buggers my warranty. So it looks like Scorpion for me, for good or bad. Thanks to all for their opinions, but I have have that tailpipe, with or without loudness. Next week it'll be on and I'll let you know what I think.

Interesting...... I know the Scorpion name is a bit Chav-related, but it's a better looking pipe on a golf.... But if the Milltek is a good sound for me (sounds like it is) then maybe.... ...oh bugger - I hate making decisions!

Well, that's why I want the tailpipe to blend in to the car and I'm only dropping it 30mm on eibachs, running factory 15" wheels - I like the subtle thing too. But I still want people to hear me and go "Mmm nice sound". OK, I want to hear it.

If it sounds like a corsa then I'll shoot myself! I'm fitting a K&N as well as it happens. I suppose I just always liked to way a car feels when you have a sporty exhaust, kinda like it's a sporty car.......;)

Absolutely right - we have a GSF and ECP locally here - I used to work in ECP! Thing is, although the OE is a great quality part, I always like a fruity zorst - I'm a big kid really!

Has anyone got or seen / heard a bastuck? Never heard of them before until i came to these forums....

I've put in a call and they're checking it out....

I can't - on a tight budget. :( Wishing I could though, but it needs a shed load of stuff done and I only have so much cash! Typical.

I've looked at them and still I'mnot sure...why do you plump for Magnex? I'm not too keen on their twin tail pipe design! I've also read here that they are really quiet - I want people to at least konw it has a performance zorst, otherwise I'd buy OE....?

Apologies it's not about a C, but I have a golf MK3 16v and I need an exhaust. I like the quality reputation of the milltek but I much prefer the tailpipe of the Scorpion Boxer. I want a good burble, and sweet note but not a chav sound where it's like the mating call of the SR Nova! Has anyone heard either system, or better still, got either system????? Obviously a 16v 'Rado is a fair comparison. I have to order tomorrow and they're the same price! I'll be mail ordering them so can't afford to get a system that sucks or doesn't fit right. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me out here guys, I'm torn between the two and I have never seen either one in the flesh. Thanks folks!

You'd only get insulted.... ;)
