  4. Popping boost pipe joints - a cheap fix....

  10. Popping and banging!

    Not really a problem with the car as such, I just wish it would sound a bit nicer / more interesting! I've always had Scoob's in the past and they have always sounded really nice with nothing more than a decent cat-back on them. My current Cupra 20vt has a Superchip, pipercross viper...
