Twin Exhaust for Ibiza mk3 1.4

Hi Ibiza owners!

I was hoping to purchase a new twin backbox for my ibiza. Nothing boy racer, just something louder than the original. I took the car to a garage asking about fitting etc. They said that it would be better to buy an exhaust which was made for the car rather than a universal one as it would be easier and cheaper to fit.

Anyone got any recommendations?

Thanks,
Jonny

Custom is the way to go mate. Please don't buy a universal backbox.... unless you want shoddy fitment and deafness.

Sounds like the custom option is for people that know a lot about cars (not necessarily me).

Nah mate you've got the wrong end of the stick

Not custom as in made by yourself... Custom as in a one off system made by an exhaust company to suit your car.

Hmmm that seems pretty cool. But how costly is it?. And I'm not sure if there are any places that like near me.

bet there will be, and not too much.


You could go to powerflow, but they're not the best.

Where abouts are you?

what about the standard cupra ones, they're twin exit. Dont know if there'd be much of a sound difference tho without the bigger engine

cupra and 1.6 have a bigger bore size on the exhaust pipe. a reducer would be needed.
