Default Vortex or ninja for looks?

Without starting a huge debate over the sound of these two awesome exhausts as i know they both soud good and i have read all the threads! I was wondering what peoples opinion was on the way they LOOK as the vortex is longer on the tail pipe and the ninja is shorter. Im making my decision today to buy one and need a few views to help!! Unless anyone happens to have one! lol cheers , Willsy. p.s im off shopping for an hour or so, bk soon!!! cheers again lads/ lasses.

I have to say i prefer the Ninja over the Vortex as it has a plain tail pipe and not the slashed blue tip.....

Thumbs up Cheeky sales attempt

Hi,
I've recently sold my MY 2000 and had to remove the Ninja back box and de-cat centre pipe. These are in good condition and are both for sale if you want to save on the cost of a new one, assuming they will fit yours. Sat gathering dust in the garage at the moment and the new chariot has PPP so won't be going on that. Let me know if you're interested.


Si

(Also intercoller mounted VTA Bailey Dump valve, K&N Panel filter + a few other goodies)

Sorry, I didn't make that clear. New car is MY 05 WRX with PPP, happy with the PPP exhaust and don't know if it would fit. Also the warranty is quite precious to me.

As ninja improves flow (a lot as I found!)I'm sure it'd help a PPP'd car, but as the PPP ecu map is set for the PPP backbox, I guess it could be optimised further with a specific map.

Anyone interested?

The car I have recently returned to standard to part - ex, and thus all the bits are from was a MY00 classic.

The 05 WRX PPP is the new one I part ex'd for. Got a standard unused exhaust for that if anyone wants one - I supppose someone might???!

I don't know if the fitment changed? Would a MY00 exhaust fit any other years / models
