You'll not really notice any difference. Unless you're deliberately flogging it to make a lot of noise in which case you'll always use more fuel
Yeah my average for my first few journeys has dropped a few but thats because of me having a hoon to make it pop rather than anything to do with the exhaust itself 
I have found I use the paddles a lot more now I have the exhaust done. going back to Coventry this weekend so will get a batter idea if its changed anything but I would expect it to be about the same

I'm tempted to go Powerflow cat-back with 2.5inch pipe.. i'll go down over weekend and see what they can do
I will have to try and remember to post some pics of mine. Got a custom cat back done at ProSpeed exhausts in Cardiff. Only cost £350 with twin 3.25" slash cut tailpipes. It's really subtle sounding but pops and burbles like crazy and still super quiet at idle and motorway speeds.
Couldn't recommend them more although they swore after doing mine they would be charging £500+ if they did a Cupra again because it took them 7 hours to do mine lol. They are perfectionists though.

Get some photos up, going to take my Cupra to pro speed when the funds allow.

Does anybody have any experiences/views of Longlife Exhausts? They are 10 minutes down the road from me and have quoted a considerable amount cheaper for an exhaust for a friends car than almost all others on here.

Sharples, do you have a movie of the sound inside/outside the car? I also have my back box replaced but wasn't to sure on the middle one, was afraid it might make to much noise, but with only the back box its not really enough... I have to use my car a lot these days, lots of highway driving. So don't want it to be to loud.
Erm I dont have one as yet, I will do one tonight as I am going back tomorrow to have the medium back box replaced with a smaller one! At the moment its ideal if you are doing more miles as you cant really hear it on the motorway but as I dont do a lot of travelling at the moment I fancy a bit more noise. I will get a vid after I have the smaller one as well so you can compare the two.
