The Volvo 480 looks good as is, but if you have the desire to give it a more personal look you can find out what others did to their 480 and be inspired.

Hi All
I have a stainless steel duplex de-cat exhaust on a j plate turbo,
does any one know if it can be tweeked to fit a 2.0 litre m plate?
Your help would be appreciated as it is only a few months old & cost £450 & some dick head has written the car off!
Cheers Tiny

It is possible to weld a reducer on (I've done it) you may however loose a slight bit of back pressure due to the extra half inch of bore. But it would work with a little modding.
Who was it that made the exhaust in the first place?
If its possible here at HOMD we make it real
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
