Title: Any body want a free Cat back system?
Post by: baldwined30 on November 08, 2011, 07:35:30 pm
Gents with Ed 30s. I have a full turbo back system on my golf but the misses is embarrassed by the exhaust and feels i shouldn't have changed it.

I did try and explain i NEEDED it for stage 2 but not sure she understood.

Anyway, i didnt have room to keep my old system.

If anyone wants to swap their standard cat back system, in good condition of course, for mine we'd both be winners.

the system is from a company called MV Sports, very nice system which cost me £950 and i bought that over the milly as they are still made in UK. BCS Nige on here designed it.  http://www.mvsport-tuning.com/
Im based in Essex if anyone interested.

heres a pic

I am interested mate but is it the full system you want or just the CAT back?

I would quite happily swap this for my full system and throw in a Pipewerx downpipe and DECAT which is great as it sounds standard until you give it some beans.

Drop me a PM if you are interested.

Love how women use the word compromise, although its usually us doing the "Compromising" thus not actually a compromise after all.  :rolleye:

P.M.'d you anyway if you need std system.

P.S. she could always sell her car and get a 4 door  :happy2:

Yeah i hated the weedy little pipes on the oem system so as a stop gap measure until i got the Milltek i took it up to Pipewerx and had them cut off the old tips and replace them with some larger ones, took 30 mins and cost £60  :smiley:
