Hopefully! On a more serious note: What's the weather doing up there today? Road condition?
A lonely figure....

Well, took the car to see ChromePete (my neighbour) at his work and we fitted the exhaust in his lunch break. He cut the old FR exhaust in the middle of the straight section where the exhaust kinks so that it can be put back if needed. The Powerflow one sounds lovely on start up and tickover. Only been for a short drive back from the garage to home but all seems well. We will see how I find it on my commute to and from work in the New Year!
Out with the old and in with the new-ish
Only shot I have so far. Think I'm going to paint it black as it sticks out a bit... might be better once its dirty!

not to sure on the exhaust mike, looks a bit boy racer

I know... hoping it might warm on me a bit! Will give painting it black a go so it blends in a bit more. 
If not, I'll get it taken off again and flog it on... nice sound though!
What about cutting the tip off & fitting another one?
It can't be that loud- I didn't hear it

Now that is an idea... sticks out a bit too much. I think it was on a facelift Ibiza so their bumper is a bit deeper at the bottom.
you can safely say there isn't another ibiza with the same exhaust tip, definately different.....maybe thats why it looks.....odd... as its "outside the box"?
by the way, good work doing it in a lunch break
Its was quiet easy actually. Slotted onto the cat with a bit of a shove... Don't want to be too different but it does look a bit lairy at the moment!
Like I say - change the tip! That looks a bit chavvy.
And Mike, you've been on here long enough - VIDEO'S! This post is USELESS without a sound clip!

No video as yet mate, sorry. Might take one at P-Torque tomorrow during remap!*EDIT*
Just had a chat with a Powerflow dealer just down the road from P-Torque and they reckon it could be done there and then so I'm just going to go and have a chat with them after getting the remap done!

Good lad! I really want my tailpipe changing! If I were you I'd go for an oval...I've got a twin pipe and I wish I'd chosen different now.

I quite like the twin pipes.
Interested to see how you get on tomorrow. Any figure in mind your looking for?

I'm liking: RAW, J, V42/52 or V41/51

V52 looks like a Milltek exhaust tip!Not really chasing any figures exactly but 190/195bhp would be sweet! I think that's about standard for a Stage 1 remap on these engines.

Sounds good. Roll on tomorrow.
It does look like it with the pipes on the inside.
You getting rid of the old exhaust?

whats the sound like inside the car?
its quite surprising the difference in the bend between the standard and aftermarket part as the standard exhaust looks like it takes a sharper bend in the pictures.
