    I had a sportex cat back on my sporting............... for about an hour!!!

    there pure toss, they don't sit straight, stick out from the bumper loads and sound wank!

    steer clear, spend the extra and get a supersprint or something.

    Avoid sprotex definitely.....I'm eagerly waiting the time that I get a new zorst as the sportex has a pointless dip that makes it catch on EVERY speed bump...and anything other than perfectly flat roads are a nightmare.

    I know what you mean, the 2nd bend after the connection to the cat (near the fuel tank) hangs low, the only way to sort this is to have the tail pipe on the piss.
