Exhaust Replacement on 1.2 Ibiza 04

Hi Ive had my Ibiza just under a year and was just wondering if there was a recomended exhaust to use, I know its a 1.2 and u guys will say save money for a bigger engine but its all i can afford at the moment as its my first car. I have been looking at universal backboxes to put on but they have to be upswept as it has to come from under the bumper. can you recomend anything as most other 1.2 cars like corsas and clios saxos etc.... all have parts available but i didnt want anything like that. It had to be an Ibiza:D!!!!!!

great choice of car for your 1st, count yourself lucky i had to settle for a fiat due to being a poor student at the time! dnt worry about the engine we all have to start somewhere and your probably still being r4p3d for insurance! great cars as you probably already know.

Yep its a pretty good car just got some 2007 seat alloys at the weekend from jacky b, ive also put in the official seat ibiza xplod sub in the boot, so im pleased with it really, the only problem is i find it ticks over too low on the revs, i dont know if theres a way to rectify this, but i think i will just wait till its 20000 service

mate you can change the rear valance so you don't have to bring the exhaust up from behind the bumper

yer I thought about that but can you get them with the cut out already in it do you know?? Ive been looking for one on ebay but no such luck!!!

Yeah mate, i've just ordered one myself. You need to go into the dealers and order a pre-facelift Fr valance. This has the cut out already in. Then its just a simple swap. I believe there around £18.

I would personally get a one made up for the car, then u can say how loud u want it etc, worth every penny I must say.
