The sportex ones seem to be quite popular of you remove the centre box and put a straight pipe on (race tube) you get a rasp from that and then a sportex back box that gives you the deep note

Sportex all the way. Think I paid £160 for a sportex backbox with race tube. Well worth every penny. A little on the loud side to.

I had the 3 inch round tip
Image
That's the best pic I have with a standard bumper
Image
It sits perfect with an irmscher rear bumper

This is also exactly what mine sounded like
1.2 16v sportex

Starts at about 1.30 and at around the 3 min mark you hear it popping at the down shift

Johnny lad that sound awesome I'm assuming that's with a race tube, I've been looking in eBay and there's like 3 different types of centre sections you can get but it all says they are straight through so what's the difference between these mate

First is what I have and in the vid yeah, second looks like a standard middle with a straight through baffled back box it's what I had first sounds nice when reving 3k+
Thrid is a straight through baffled mid and rear box which will give the best of both , it'll be loud and may pop but still sort of subtle I've never had one so can't say for sure what it'd be like but it's probably the best choice

They do a decent selection of tips, http://www.sportexexhausts.com/Performa ... roduct/453

Any smaller than 2.5 and you'd be aswell getting the Hoffman race tube and slash cut standard rear box
