I've got an ashley one and where the back box connects to the middle pipe it knocks on the bar below it which is positioned from axel to axel.

you get torque steer from 1.7cdti combo van if you hammer it and they pi55 120mph so will be livley in a little car.

id go for the 1.7cdti, with a £300 remap takes em to about 155-60bhp n shed loads of torque!!
be carefull when nailing it tho, after owning a really torquy diesel i know just how much they torque steer. plus new tyres every 4 months!

just a suggestion, is the centre section on to far, if it was the end of the pipe would be alot closer to the axle, eg - the curve in the pipe would have a big gap between pipe and axle at the front, but on the rear of the axle where the join is would be very little, or vice versa, just a suggestion

It's as if where the curve part of the middle box joins the back box is sitting too far back and needs to come forward so that it does not knock if that makes sense!

i was trying to say if the centre section was to far on the exhaust where it joins just before the cat, it would pull everything forward and cause bangin on the curver part on the axle, then if it was not on far enough it would do the same
_/. \_ to far on, - would bang back of axle
_/ . \___ on the right distance
_/ .\_ not on far enough - would bang front of axle
hope that is a bit clearer and makes more sense
