Default Exhaust noise

I have recently fitted a tsl firestorm backbox with a hayward and scott straight through center section. I had no idea how it was going to sound and i can safely say its loud!!

Now personally i dont have a prob with this but i think my neighbours might as i work shifts and im sure they will get pissed off with me when im on early shift and come in from a night shift.

So my question is, do bungs actually reduce the noise? Im hopeing they do as i can remove it as and when.

If not am i right in thinking that a baffled center section would reduce the noise? Something along the lines of this :- Scoobyparts Ltd TORNADO REAR DE-CAT PIPE (CLASSIC)

I got a bung for the 4" MillTek system on my 2.5WRX. This significantly reduces noise - especially on startup and at motorway speeds. Can highly recommend!
What size do you need??

I got mine from this ebay shop: eBay UK Shop - Racerbits: HONDA, BMW, VOLKSWAGEN, it's US based, but with a quick call he may knock you up a special - was dirt cheap too !
