Default New kid on the block

Hello all you out there, yes l'm new on here and l'm from a town called Bolton in the UK. My craving for Civic VTI's ranges back over 10 yrs in which time l've owned 5 VTI's including number 485 Jordan Sold that and tried to be sensible cutting costs on things like the high insurance of Honda's and fuel bills buying a Skodia Fabia TDI. Bad move you cant beat the sound and fun of screaming a VTec and the handling of my 30mm lowered Civic would embarass the Skoda and many other cars, though l reckon the latest Skoda Fabia VRS might have got a lot closer to pleasing me than the last one. Anyway enough l me for now, l've attached a pic of my car and me though try not to let that spoil the pic By the way does anyone know where l can get a twin loop mugen style back section for my car that will bolt straight on? Here in the UK theres nowhere and l'm not paying the sky high cost of the genuine item which l think you'd agree here in the UK a price of £600 is ridiculous so any help would be great and info about postage costs.



Cheers Mike

Cheers guys for the welcome and kind words about my car yeah the Mugen style twin loop l'm finding hard to find here or at least the bolt on one and the twin loop is the exhaust l'd have due to l dont want too much anti social noise or the eye sore,boy racer looks, biscuit tin tail pipe diameter used on many sports exhausts. But hey thats my choice some like the noise and big pipes. l suppose l'm an old boring git really

If its the noise you dont want get exhaust uk over in sheffield to build you a custom one, they can take a lot of the noise away using a bigger middle section and leaving more baffles in the back box. I had mine done there and so did a mate of mine, both sound different.
