I know this has probably been done to death already, but cant find any threads.

I want a new exhaust that:-
1. Increase BHP (more than 2BHP!)
2. Makes a better sound (rather than the standard mouse fart), but
3. Doesn't deafen me on the motorway
4. Isn't the sizeof Barrymore's ringpiece

Car is standard at the moment, was looking at Dawes, AFR and boost guage, but a bit too scared of things going ****!

LMAO

I've just had a fully scoobysport decat put on and not only does it sound great but it's not too intrusive either (not as loud as the same system I had on my old MY96).

Oh..........and the back box is considerably smaller than Barrymore's ringpiece

try the new system from J-W Racing .

Its made by Magnex, so the quality is superb, sounds lovely, looks ace (slash cut tail like the new shape STi8) and should give a fair old power increase ~ maybe 30bhp for a full system

What is the sound like,
1. Is there a drone at motorway speads
2. Will it pi$$ the neighbours off (not bothered what they think)
3. Will the missus be able to tell i have just spent her xmas money (my heart isn't bothered but my ********* are)

I know I've said it before, but . . For an exhaust that is much quieter than most but still makes the right noises, the APS system works very well. Have it on my car after hearing a fair few others, still think I have made the best choice for me, although (especially if you fit the sports cat), it isn't the cheapest system. J-W supply them too, so I'd suggest speaking to Jamie.

Re: no 3. Yes. With any exhaust. Unless you keep the standard backbox with a quiet front half, and keep the "mouse fart".
