definately go for a full system, your wasting your time without the downpipe. Go directly to Blueflame and they will fit it while you wait.

If you want improved performance, get the full system. The biggest restriction in the standard system is the cat(s) and down pipe. Changing these releases more power and torque, sounds better and is louder.

If you just want a bit more noise and a different look, then the cat back will be fine. You wont get any added performance but it will look and sound a little better.

Up to you to work out what you want :)

My suggestion is unless you want over 300bhp then an exhaust is pointless, the OEM system is pretty darn good up to 300bhp and at that point the 1.8T needs major surgery (new turbo or NOS). Put the cash towards a good remap, suspension, ARB's etc far more return for your money :shrug:

Well I only know of people with LCR’s having the problem but id get it done anyway. My LCR felt so much more solid to drive afterwards (not too sure why). Power flex bushes supplied and fitted by jabba £30. Well worth it, only downside you get a slight increase in vibration through the steering wheel. :D
