Default exhaust bits n bobs

Ok, I used to have a 98 uk with a full hks de-cat which ran nice, sounded nice etc.

changed cars now and it only has a standard one on. Now theres a couple of things i dont know quite what to do. I want a full de-cat again, probably a blitz or something. Altho im a bit confused when it comes to downpipes + uppipes.

what options do i have here, I know theres open-neck downpipes, etc but what are the different types available and the benefits of each ? could someone briefly outline some facts for this and for the uppipe ? Its a bit of a grey area for me.

the cars a uk99 running a prodrive ecu, standard other than that.

Thanks ppl

from my limited understanding the aftermarket downpipes should be twin piped or open necked, either of these on a scoob below about 300 odd bhp will do the same job. i've got the twin piped magnex downpipe and was considering changing to an open necked before the above was said to me.

not sure of prices but the magnex must be around the cheapest and i'd thoroughly recomend it

up pipes on classic shape don't have a cat in therefore changing it isn't necasary (IIRC)

not sure how a full decat will react with your prodrive ecu, gotta be someone out there who knows though

might see you around (especially now they've resurfaced some of the tramlined tarmac on university way) what colour you got?
