My car is completely stock in terms of engine and exhaust. I am looking into the idea of just changing over the current 1.75" piping to a proper mandrel bent 2" one.

What difference would this make to the car?

It will make your car louder of course :P, and make it more responsive when putting your foot down. Dont expect massive gains.

Hmm.. I'm just wondering how the tone is going to be like.

if you want a nice tone, then get Exhaust plus extractors and get a high flow cat. It also pays to get a respectable brand of extractors. Stock extractors aren't bad, but if you have the money, go for it.

2.5" is a little large IMO, on a 1.6 i'd be going closer to 2"

changing the piping by itself, keeping stock muffler, cat, extractors.... wont do much :P

Anyone got any idea how much it's going to set me back? Just don't want to be ripped off when I asked exhaust places.
