i was just wondering which lowering kit to go for (60mm springs and shocks) and also i am going to get a new exhaust and i heard that getting rid of the middle box gets that nice deep sound also as its a 1.0 i would need a sleeve to fit the back box, would i be correct in thinking if i got a pipe without the middle box it would be easyier to fit the back box?!?!?. i was thinking of a 3'' outward rolled sportex... any help would be great as im pretty much clueless!!!!

cheers

just got to a exhaust specialist, have an exhaust made on the car, by far the best way in my experienence, as they will hang it securly, and they can position the backbox height wise to suit your needs, buying bits like that off the internet is all wel and good, and there very good respectable parts but they wil fit on the car 1 way and 1 way only, and i can garentee if you lower your car you start gettin pissed cos the exhaust is knockin on the rear axel

Aye, my brother had it on his old XE. It was a deep note out of it yeah, I liked it. It would quite loud, but it was a straight though system.

Quinn do allow mods, For free usually. Performance mods (I think its +10bhp - Unless thats a rumour) is all they charge/care about
