Hey guys,

Just got a question if you could help me out :)

A mate at work is having a garage clearout (garage at home not commercial garage) and as I was helping him I saw a stainless steel back box exhaust. I asked him if he was interested in selling it and he said I colud have it for a fiver. He does not know which car it is for as he bought it from a car boot sale for £20 with the hope of fitting it to his escort, which he never got round to. The guy who sold it at the car boot sale had no idea as to which car it has come from or even which car it fits!
Question is are these exhaust universal fit or not?
All that the box has on it is a sticker which says PECO DTM. It doesnt have any other marking in it.
The exhaust has two tail pipes sticking out and one pipe on the section where it joins on underneath the car.
I want to fit it to my VW Polo 1.4 R reg.

How easy is it to fit this exhaust and will it fit my car?


Thank you guys for reading and I look forward to your answers.


Mike

Sorry to be flippant Mike, but "how long is a piece of string"

Some sizes and pipe diameters might go a little (not far, but a little) way to giving somone more informed than I on this forum an idea.

The "Technical matters" forum would be a better place as well.

PECO make 'performance' exhaust boxes (i.e. make a bit more noise than standard). They are not 'universal' - but it could probably be 'made' to fit depending on how much work you want to do. personally I wouldn't bother.
Is there no part no. on it?
