The Demon Tweeks site lists two cat back systems for a T5. Which one fits a 2wd R, as Im assuming they're the same??

I'm not sure if you can upload videos directly here, but you can link them using the Youtube tags, as long as they're on Youtube.

I just tried using your Vimeo link with the Youtube tags and it didn't work :/

Here's a UTube clip. Sounds about right: https://youtu.be/KYhhjHS_Tgo

That's sounds awesome to be fair!

How much did it set you back and is there a notable improvement in performance mate?

I think I need this on my car!

I haven't got it yet. That's not my video - I nicked it from UTube just as a taster. Posted from Sweden it's around 500 quid all in.

Actually it was £385 posted, not a bad price really. Will be fitting it today all being well 🙄 - anybody else got one and what extra (if any) power do they realistically provide over just noise!?! 🤔

Thats good news mate, as long as you're happy who cares how many ponies you added. The response from the engine is the main improvement as you've found out but it will really come alive if you plan on modding further.
