My Black Magic Mk1 LEON Cupra TDI index in 1st post

[MarkWales]

I want to keep the car looking like Vag built it - OEM Plus.

Exhaust is from Prospeed Cardiff - booked in for saturday 9.30 just need to decide on tail pipe

 

[4937Liam]

I prefer the twin style tailpipe design.
Are you going to like the equivelant of a powerflow dealer?

 

[MarkWales]

sort but an independent specialist - charlie once worked for one of the big custom chains and went out on his own

 

[brightsideteeem]

oval mate.

 

[Gordz]

definitley oval, just looks a lot more 'beefier' and mean if that makes sense? yet still gives it a bit of class with it being a nice oval shape rather than a big fat hole (ie like seen on corsas & novas!).

when i see a twin exhaust I just don't think 'power', but when i see the big oval one that the cupras have i think 'power'.

this is making more sense in my head than it is in words!!!

 

[MarkWales]

no I agree fully with you the cupra has is power and style combined

pabs oval tail pipe - this is what I am look at

 

[Gordz]

I'd love that sort of look to the rear end of my car. Just finishes it off nicely.

I recently changed mine to an oval, looks alot better than the big twin I had before

 

[MarkWales]

Lovin that look

allthough every man and his dog seems to be going the Oval route


Andrew maybe you have a point


after the exhaust is sorted on wish list are these vents, pedals and the wheel

but its all about descreetness

mines a miltek decat , but looks like OEM

and not bad for just shy of 200bhp
on city diesel as mark spotted / confirmed it

so looks can be deceiving ask a few potrolheads my way

think if i went for another i would def go unusual

when charlie got the box off , get the tips and mate them upto the rear bumper and see which takes your fancy

just do some googleing

I think it's all about personal preference. I like the idea of having no tail pipe showing and the bumper being completely smooth for the euro look.

Maybe a DTM tail pipe to be different?

That tip would probably be worth more than the entire system

Second one is off a Porsche Cayanne and the last one is a DTM tip. I like the first one.

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

As Lee said unless you get replica ones those tailpipes will cost more than most exhaust systems.

They look smart tho

 

[Andrewcupra TDI]

1st ones off an m5
