What changes can you make to a UK Turbo exhaust?
How many sections can you replace?
Is there any exhaust which will make a UK turbo sound like a jap WRX?
Would a Magnex full system do the trick?

Loads.

all three of them, and then headers and up pipe too if you want to go that far.

Engine is probably the same anyway, so no reason why not at all.
Would a Magnex full system do the trick?
It would, and it is cheap. Personally I would go for a scoobymania as it is great value, and sounds fantastic. Other options are BPM (expensive but great) and SS (most common).

Can't really add anything to what Adam has said - except to say the best thing to do is get yourself along to a local meet and have a listen. You'll find there are a huge number of combinations and sounds. Personally I run a Scoobysport DP with Magnex decat centre and backbox - sounds nice without being too 'in-yer-face' (my car is a UK Turbo). The Scoobymania system is very nice and BPM's is very loud 
If you want a drainpipe hanging off the back, look at Blitz and HKS

how much would one of these full systems cost?
I think we (my Dad and I) are going to wait until the warranty runs out to get anything more done. (we just got a P1 exhaust fitted to it, but hasn't done much - pretty much a waste of £250)

Warranty isn't normally a problem with just fitting an exhaust.
Personally I have a full scoobymania system and think it sounds awesome.!!
The back box is about the same price as the scoobysport system but the midsection is way cheaper.

i have for sale a full Magnex system 1 month old - front pipe, mid pipe and 3.5" round backbox for £335, and it sounds brilliant, burbles nicely on tickover and sounds like a race car when you lift off the gas at 4000rpm.
Also when you blip it a few times you can get a flame to shoot out :-)
