Default My review of Broken Motorsports full exhaust system.

I just wanted to post a quick review from my experience with the Green Street version of this system. I've been driving with this setup for 2 days now and I absolutely love it! The muffler that Mr. Petrow chose for the catback section is perfect, it deepened the exhaust tone at the low end and gave it a snarl at the higher end. The header and high flow cat piece definitely has, at the very least, broadened the power band to bring a bit more torque to the middle rpm. I can't speak of more power overall as winter has decided to finally show up, and traction has become a fond memory. The Broken Motorsports system weighs considerably less than the oem system, and cutting weight on the Fiesta is definitely a good thing. My ecu has not thrown any codes as of yet which means the cat is doing it's job within the engine's O2 sensors.

All in all, I'm very pleased with the performance and with the intangibles that this system has provided me. I look foreword to some decent traction to further test it.

I just checked their website and couldn't find any info. How much does the system cost and are there dyno charts? How loud is it compared to the Magnaflow and Flowmaster? Did you do the install yourself? How hard is it to get to the exhaust manifold bolts? Is it stainless? Pics?

Ok, I admit it, first I posted then I did a search. Still it would be nice if the info was on their website. Sounds nasty but I don't think I could handle that for my daily drivewr.

The muffled version isn't much louder than the stock system. It does present a bit more nvh, but it is a race exhaust so that's to be expected.

Do you have any photos of the install by chance or any of it installed. Thanks in advance.

I farmed the install to a friend of mine so I missed the process. And when it warms up a bit, I'll try and get some pics of it on the car.

Want noise.

I've listened to Broken's videos. I want to hear yours with the Boesch Intake!

Feel free to consider me your superior. (;
