Just curious as to whether this is a particular aftermarket setup or is it custom made? |

Looks custom to me but could be wrong, if it was scorpion/magnex etc it would say on it somewhere. |

Its not a magnex, but looks similar to my old long life backbox. I think the mid section is custom though. That will be raspy a you like... ________________________________________ See the sheer power and might of the lesser known burrowing owl. |

It's an aftermarket cat too. I must admit, it does look like a Mongoose exhaust from memory, but I could be wrong. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

Thanks for the replies. Looks like its definitely a mongoose. The decat looks like a custom job though judging from the condition of the welds. Wonder why the heat shield was left on!?? |

Thats an aftermarket pattern part CAT not a decat...it could be a home-made decat though where somebody has knocked the innards out of the unit.________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

Yeah, I thought it was a CAT at first but then I stuck a metal rod down it and it went straight through. Also it appears to have been cut then welded again. Although strangely the first time i stuck something down it i thought I felt a core but maybe I was just hitting the walls... (damn, doubts, now i have to recheck it) |
