As above really. Saw a video yesterday that reminded me how much I hate it!

Am I alone in this, or do others find it annoying too?

No offence to owners by the way!

  • Diesel = ****e noise

No it sounds stupid.

i think it sounds good, wouldnt have it myself though

I love it :) does get on my nerves at times, but very rarely. Only annoying this is when your trying to be quiet and not attract attention and a pidgin Is squawking out the exhaust lol

i actually like it. though i am young and niave ;) , i guess it will be the older guys who are not as keen or more mature i should say :)

What causes this noise?

Is it when the cat is removed?

Not sure but my mate "bashed" his cat out and it didn't make the noise, I think it has something to do with the baffles or design of the exhaust :/

Ah right.

I wonder if it's when you do a de-cat and a mufflerectomy then.

That's good as I was thinking of bashing my cat's innards out (don't call the RSPCA please!) and don't want any funny cooing noises hehe :giggle:

I've watched a few de cat and mufflerectomy vids on YouTube and haven't noticed it :/ only seen it using custom exhausts or milltek etc

Fecking pigeon pipes... Super duper gash.

Theres an old 70's coal lorry around my old home town that made this noise because it was ******!

If anyone is familiar with the term Felt Spec which done the rounds for a while, this was very promenent on Boras and Toledos in N. Ireland one of the reasons I hate it so much!

Anything they sounds broken isnt a nice sound imo.

I like it personally! Mines a mufflerectomy but the owl is fairly quiet. I want a decat :D

Hate it, reason I don't have a upgraded exhaust

No. That is all.

I always thought the owl noise was bad thing I got told it makes that noise because the turbo is stalling

Part of the reason I'm umming and aahing, I don't like the sound, my opinion it sounds weird and chav, no offence to those who like it.

And the fact I'm struggling to find a system without any branding stamped into the tailpipes.

Get something custom made up. I don't have any branding but I wanted the branding :(
