I'm after another exhaust system but want something that sounds nice! Tried getting hold of a second hand magnex but to no luck yet!I have heard good stuff about the jetex system but there is only one video on YouTube which is pretty poor! So basically, what do they sound like? Any videos? |

A video isn't really a good way to tell. Is there anyone off the group buy who lives near you?They are the quietest off the shelf system. ________________________________________ Ex SC-6Now in a Megane R26 |

I hear mixed views! Some say the magnex is chavtastic loud, others say it is just right! But if the jetex is quiet there's no point me getting one as nothing wrong with my standard system! |

If you have a good standard system and aren't planning on heavily modding then you may as well stay with it.A jetex will be a bit louder than standard but not chavtastic. ________________________________________ Ex SC-6Now in a Megane R26 |

The only thing it does need is a new centre box as the baffles resonate at around 3k which is getting a bit irritating and been quoted £85 for a new pattern part where I could spend that bit more and get a good aftermarket secondhand system! |

Dont buy anything from an exhaust place!Try onlineautomotive.co.uk. Got quoted nearly £300 for exhaust parts from Kwikfit then bought the same lot for £80 online.

Jetex is very well made, and a very good fit as far as I can tell. You also have a lifetime warranty (to purchaser). I have just had one fitted, but haven't had a chance to test it fully yet. I'll let you know what I find out. It does make a nice difference in tone over a standard system, sounds much more manly when I start my car up  |
