Hi guys,

after looking at a few sites i seem to be a bit miffed to what would fit what etc... now after all the years of advising 'standard' exhaust systems i wouldn't have a clue where to start for aftermarket items such as playmini.

Now... does anyone have anything like so for sale for a Coop S or could link/advise me towards the right one? (websites as such)

Thanks in advanced! :thumbs up:

Really depends on what you want, is it a cat back system or a rear box?
Milltek is great for a cat back and obviously the Play Mini speaks for itself

it was more of something to take out both sides of the back boxes and just take it through the middle or just one side

Then your looking for the one ball route
I'm sure you could work it out with the car on a ramp, simply create a link pipe and take out one rear box

well there are a few routes you can go the gtt re route pipe witch takes out one of the boxes but leaves the standard look or you can go play mini or even the custom route

I got the full install at GTT, but, as Rob saya, you can buy the link pipe kit from GTT and do it yourself and keep the standard exhaust.

out of curiousity... does getting rid of 1 box increase the power? does it have any affect on the sound?

I have a proffesionally converted standard exhaust to 'One-Ball' that will be available very soon. Let me know if your intrested.

People claim power from it, its certainly more free-flowing and sounds alot better without being rediculously loud!!

Not far from you either. :thumbs up:

You can have a nosey at our Hartge if you want? It's a nice note but I'd like to fit a manifold & decat soon to amplify the pops and bangs :cool:

The Alta one ball exhaust looks pretty serious, mean in the black option too, but not cheap for what it is.
