Hi All :)

I have had my FQ360 for 8 months and am looking to change the exhaust system. I am swayed by the Agency Power Ti Tip Dual Exhaust as the I want to get rid of the giant HKS back box (like carrying an extra kid in the boot).
I had a lame effort at tracking down a FQ400 back box and diffuser :razz: but for cost and effort i'm happy with a lighter twin system. The scorpion system looks the closest (which I can get here in the UK) to the agency but looks clumsy with bends and heavy lol, whereas the agency looks flowing and well, damn better looking.
The guys in the USA said "As far as we know there is no routing exhaust difference and the exhaust itself should fit your model with the only discrepancy being the bumper outlets."
It looks like there is plenty of room on my 360 to cope with the agency exit angle without tinkering with the diffuser, but has anyone here had 1 fitted?? And looking at theirs and mine is the diffuser different on the US X's?? And does anyone know if you can get agencys in the UK?

Sorry for the ramble lol, but any advice would be appreciated. Ty :)

I'd avoid, you'll not be happy with the fit and finish of it, I've seen nothing but complaints

Lol what was your response m8? Rsv was moaning about me not saying Hi.
You can probably answer me best if you are in Boston :) You dont see many Evo's as it is UK let alone US models. Is the diffuser completely different to UK's? Or is that a after market diffuser. I have emailed the firm but did this afternoon so wont get response till monday.

Dont know much about the exhaust you mentioned but Mark normally has a good opinion :)

Personally I would recommend Scorpion, cracking exhaust, I am still grinning every time I go out.......

Ty Zipzon, just need to know from mark if it was pipework issues or the diffuser. Willing to change if need be. I havent managed to hear a Scorpion yet C:( Is she as loud as a Scooby? I was thinking the 5" cans might be a tad loud. Have u got any piccys of your scorpion on this forum m8?

Looking at the picture I would say both. The exhaust comes at an angle, the diffuser on yours will not tolerate that angle and the diffuser on the US car does not look like standard to me.

Where in Surrey are you as I work all over the place I might be in your area or near at some point..............

I have asked the US firm where the diffuser is from if not a standard US part.
Yep I was thinking that I might have to tinker with my diffuser while I wait to find the US equivalent. Just would of been easier to get hold of a FQ400 back box and diffuser, but they appear to be like hens teeth :) Based in Epsom.

I used to be a lot in Epsom before I changed company (used to work for Morrison who did housing maintenance for Rosebery Housing),not that way very often these days, but if you are coming closer to MK on your journeys let me know.
Closest I get these days is Guildford area......

You asked why you should say hi.... Anyways moving on. Yh I'm in Boston Lincolnshire not US, I have notices there is a difference but not looked into it too much, all I know is the US guys go crazy for uk cars especially fq's
