magnex tends to sell themselves on their quality more so than their noise, and you tend to see an increase in power more often than not with magnex.

i've got a 4" on mine

you can drive it on light throttle and it sounds standard, then when you open it up more you can hear it. it makes quite a bit of booming on the overun, just what i like. id deffo go magnex again.

oh questions. no you wont need to mod the exhaust in anyway. you'd use the same downpipe...
it doesnt make any noise on idle.

Got a magnex full system, was thinking about changing it but after speaking to some of you guys ive decided to keep it. The only thing i thought about doing is getting a universal 5" slashcut Magnex backbox to replace my current one, but i rekon alot of youi guys would rule against that ?

What do you think

Ive currently got a 4" round one and that has some play either side of it. Well, if i go for it and it doesnt fit, i'd just simply make the hole in the bumper bigger, but not sure if i want it yet. I like it but everyones says stay away from jap style backboxes, so not sure what to do ?

I have a magnex 4" system on my 1600 si, but it wasnt loud enough as you say for when you stick your foot down....so i had the mid section removed!!!! Its cheap and also a power gain!!
Capow...instant smiles when you start up!!
Just been looking, and peco now do a 4" outwardly rolled back box for other fiestas (instead of just turbos) i have e-mailed them to see if they do it for the si! will let you know what they say!!
