The systems generally replace secondary catalytic converters where fitted. Some systems may go from the secondary catalyst back where necessary and these are described as Secondary Cat-Back Exhaust System.
This in combination with Scorpions exhaust design know-how helps increase power through increased flow-rate and reduced back pressure but leaves primary catalytic converters in place so the car remains road legal and will pass MOTs. Made using precision mandrel worked aircraft grade T304 steel. This is the highest standard steel used for automotive parts and offers excellent corrosion resistance and thermal properties. Scorpion offer a lifetime guarantee for the original purchaser on all their exhaust systems.Scorpion supply their back-boxes with one of their range of tailpipes to suit the vehicle:STW Tailpipes: twin slash cut round tailpipes, sized accordingly to applicationBoxer Tailpipe: single inward rolled, slash-cut rectangular oval tailpipeDaytona Tailpipe: round inner-taper tailpipe, sized accordingly for each applicationEvo Tailpipe: single inward rolled oval tailpipe, 114mm x 87mmEvo R Tailpipe: single inward rolled oval tailpipe, 155mm x 100mmImola Tailpipe: single inward rolled round tailpipe, sized accordingly for each applicationLe Mans Tailpipes: twin inward rolled, straight-cut round tailpipesMonaco Tailpipes: twin inward rolled slash cut oval tailpipes, sized accordingly to applicationStealth Tailpipe: hidden for discreet power and soundSuzuka Tailpipe: single slash cut large round tailpipeTuner Tailpipe: single slash cut tailpipe, sized accordingly to applicationSome vehicles may have multiple systems available with different back box and trim options.

FAQs
What does 'Cat-Back' mean for this exhaust system?
'Cat-Back' means the system replaces the exhaust components starting from the catalytic converter all the way to the rear tailpipe. It generally does not replace the primary catalytic converter itself.
Will this exhaust system affect my car's ability to pass MOT tests?
No, this system is designed to leave the primary catalytic converter in place, which is crucial for passing emissions tests during MOT inspections.
What is T304 stainless steel and why is it used?
T304 stainless steel is a high-grade material known for its excellent corrosion resistance and thermal properties, making it ideal for automotive exhaust systems. It ensures durability and longevity.
How long is the warranty period?
Scorpion offers a lifetime guarantee on their exhaust systems for the original purchaser.
Can I choose different tailpipe styles?
Yes, Scorpion offers various tailpipe options (e.g., STW, Boxer, Daytona, Evo) designed to suit different vehicles and aesthetic preferences. Please check the product listing for available options for your specific vehicle.
Does this system increase fuel economy?
While the primary goal is performance enhancement, a more efficient exhaust flow can sometimes lead to marginal improvements in fuel economy under certain driving conditions. However, significant gains are not guaranteed.
What is the difference between a 'Resonated' and 'Non-Resonated' system?
A resonated system includes a silencer (resonator) to reduce exhaust drone and noise levels, offering a sportier but more refined sound. A non-resonated system typically produces a louder and more aggressive exhaust note.
Troubleshooting
Exhaust leak detected after installation.
Check all connections and clamps. Ensure gaskets are properly seated and tightened. Re-apply sealant if necessary.
Reduced performance compared to expected gains.
Verify that all original restrictive components have been removed and the new system is correctly fitted. Ensure no blockages exist in the new system. Check primary catalytic converter health.
Unusual rattling or vibration sounds.
Check that the exhaust system is not making contact with the vehicle's chassis or underbody components. Ensure all hangers and mounting brackets are secure.
Exhaust system discolored (bluing/rainbow effect).
This is a normal phenomenon for stainless steel exhaust systems due to high temperatures and indicates no functional defect.
