Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |

Tailpipe size does nothing for performance or noise IMO, it's all about looks and personal preference. There are some Vauxhall Corsa boys round here who think bigger is better, too big is not nearly enough and drain pipe size is worth an extra 100bhp!

There are some Vauxhall Corsa boys round here who think bigger is better, too big is not nearly enough and drain pipe size is worth an extra 100bhp! Performance and noise level is primarily dependant on a good silencer design and correct pipe diameters, Playmini stuff seems to be pretty highly rated from what I've seen. Thanks for that neil :) Shit Happen's |

Hmmm Cant find any 2" tail pipes. do they do 2" tail pipe with the 2" at the back that fits onto the middle pipe ? Or just go for the 2 1/2" rog Or go for something else that can take the power ?

Well as im going to be running more then 120, the box ive sold wont be anygood.. so most on here say  the maniflow is 2" bore.. play mini says 3" . but looks barry boy lol
Im just trying to find out if they do a 2" playmin.. What u running at then ?? and you got same maniflow back box ? Cheers Edited by Markie_D on 2nd Oct, 2007. Shit Happen's |

you could make one? incidentley that "Back Box" is only good for around 120 BHP (full stop) been there, maniflow claims 125BHP but..... its a lot less IMHO! any one else would like to comment ? On 14th of Sep, 2007 at 07:00am RogerM said:
With Steve on this, Play Mini gives you far more potential. Never done any trials personally to find the limit of that system however I know people who have rplaced them with Play Mini stuff and found the old exhaust was restricting performance. Shit Happen's |

At the moment, I'm using a 2" home made system with a Simons muffler. That's why I'd like to buy yours as that's better. Crap, I've got a 2" twin Box Maniflow system on mye N/A car that will produce more.

You offered £20, but i sold it for alot more as i need the money.. Sorry about that mate... :$ Shit Happen's |

Well, I now firmly believe that a Play-Mini 2" link pipe is way better than a Maniflow 2" link pipe. No doubt. On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:
