Magnex exhaust for Supercharger?

Post by DNOS808 »

I have got a Magnex Stainless steel exhaust that was originally fitted to a standard Mk1 and I am wondering if it would fit my Supercharger.

I have been trying to find out if Magnex produced different versions of their exhaust for the SC and NA versions of the Mk1. From what I can gather there was only one version of the exhaust and so I assume it will be ok on the SC.

Does anyone know if Magnex produced more than one version of their MR2 Mk1 exhaust?

The exhaust manifolds are identical apart from the lambda sensor flange on the S/C version (and maybe some late N/A's??).

Exhaust systems are interchangable between S/C and N/A models.

The only slight issue you may have is clearance of the driveshaft. This is because SC driveshafts are a fair bit bigger, so they can foul the exhaust.

A bit of bending is normally enough, though my local exhaust place welded in a short extension section to lower it further.

Magnex produced two versions IIRC. The first had a flexi (can't remember if it was long or short) but the second one was revised as flexi's tended to go on the earlier one.
