Featured Replies

whos had one and whats it like?

were you have it done and how much it cost

ive got mine booked in tomorrow morning at hawleys in hillsbrough sheffield

Do a search, there's been loads of threads [with videos!] on this this last 4 weeks.

Personally I think they're a bit daft.

They all sound so different for being the same lol some sound lovely and some are awful. Hit or miss really as no one seems to knows the variables which cause it?

I know what causes good and bad ones. Bore. I had standard bore mufflerectomy and it sounded bad. I then got a milltek turbo back system and replaced the back box with straight pipe and thats how you get a good-un. Milltek size bore.

I don't get what's wrong with buying a big bore or tuned box myself.

Isn't.noise levels part of the.new mot?

You know straight through exhausts aren't road legal, don't you?

I can't remember what the thread is called but I posted a video of mine and my mates both sounded different lol

I never mentioned using it on the road.

Are they?! At current a decat on a diesel is ok, and a mate`s car just passed its MOT with no backbox, so I assumed it was

As long as it passes noise regulations I cant see why is wouldnt be legal, it still has a silencer (the turbo)..lol

But id still be worried personally about over spinning the turbo.

Just had mine done at a bespoke exhaust place in brum, cost me £90 and sounds mega when you boot it :)

Got a decat and custom backbox....does not spund like a diesel when you hammer it lol like a quiter subaru impreza

For the 'Owl' sound don't you need to remove all silencers and the cat?

nope, i still get a muted version with a miltek full system, and i had a miltek sports cat and a custom mufflerectomy, and that used to owl very loudly, clips are somewhere on here
