Stainless exhausts for mk1
Hi all
Just joined the club and thought I would see if anyone out there can help me.
I bought a Magnex rear box off E-Bay before Xmas and I have only recently got round to trying to fit it. I wrongly assumed that it was a direct replacement for the standard toyota item.
I have contacted Magnex to try and buy the front section, but they won't sell it on its own.
I have priced up having the section made up from stainless, but this is too costly.
Does anyone out there have a Magnex front section to fit a MK1 b that they want to sell?
Heres hoping!

Re: Stainless exhausts for mk1
I had a similar problem - my front flexi is leaking. When I contacted magnex they advised that I could get a new flexi from my local motor factors.....NOT helpful.
One of the ebay sellers (ricer rocket) that sell the complete mongoose system offered to sell me a front mongoose section only for £125 - which seemed reasonable and I'm led to believe they're identical to the magnex items.
Might be worth giving them a call/e-mail ([email protected]

Re: Stainless exhausts for mk1
the mongoose is a nice ballance. its nice and taim when idelling so as not to anoy any neighbours but once the throttle is planted it really roars.

Re: Stainless exhausts for mk1
imho the mongoose sounds pants, the janspeed sounds ten times better. or even better than that a box straight off the downpipe if you like wearing ear plugs that is
Re: Stainless exhausts for mk1
Also the janspeeds build quality is 10 times better then the mongoose.

Re: Stainless exhausts for mk1
the janspeed ones are very good but also more money so its down to the individual to decide whats more important i guess.

Re: Stainless exhausts for mk1
replied to your pm sturge, and for anyone else we can supply the mongoose front pipes that fit the magnex systems perfectly, just incase anyone else is looking for one as well
Re: Stainless exhausts for mk1
Apparently when my exhaust pops it throws a flame out the back? Not seen it myself but when i drove past my mechanics garage last night it did it.

Re: Stainless exhausts for mk1
we have plenty of these front pipes in stock people, so far ive had 4 enquiries about replacement front pipes.
and because im new on here and want to help you guys out.
ill do you an offer. anyone who buys a front pipe off us and mentions the imoc ill throw in a free fitting kit with it as well
cant ask fairer than that now
Mongoose front pipe
Glad to see it isn't only me who has been having the exhaust problems.
If you've had 4 enquiries for the front pipes does this entitle me to a huge discount for starting this thread. HA HA HA ...Only joking
If you will keep the fitting kit deal open for a few weeks I will have a front pipe, but I will have to wait till pay day. Just moving house and I'm skint. Bloody stamp duty....Money for nothing.
