Re: [Mk1 NA] Nurspec style exhaust
The combination depends very much on the car.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
However, A K&N and a Magnex always provides a sound I like.
Quiet at low revs, but as soon as you're in mid-range it makes a hell of a noise.

.but its a roar.

Re: How should I mount my back box?
Thanks for the info. No brackets on it. I know a few who will fit it and fabricate the brackets. No paperwork, not too bothered, got it free anyway when I bought the car. Will have a think on how I want it to exit and get back to you. I got a decat pipe made by 'xspower' off him too, with all the fi...

Hello, I'm new to the forum. I've recently bought a 1992 Turbo. Needed a new radiator and water pump - sorted now :D With the deal, I got a TRD back box (4.5inch tail) and a decat pipe. The guy wanted to put them on, but a family problem meant he had to sell asap (I know this is true!). I need some ...
