Default How fooking loud!!!!

So i had a full decat 3" Milltek fitted with just a small cherrybomb style reasonator in the centre pipe and OMG it sounds so loud in the car it resonated at low revs and also caused cabin drone at 70-80mph. Has anyone else experienced this? I has a centre section with a resonator and cat in place which i might have to chuck on instead as i am ashamed to drive a car that sounds like a chav mobile

I had a complete de-cat Miltek 3" system on my classic earlier this year. That wasn't loud at all, didn't get any cabin drone whatsoever even with my car being stripped out. I actually changed it to a tornado system as it was too quiet for my liking.
I'm not a 'chav' either so my 'loud' is probably no different to yours. For example, I personally think a Nur spec is over the top loud with the bung out.

I am wondering if the baffles in the backbox are knackered as that is the only part secondhand off a friend, so will let it have the map tweak tomorrow with Fb Tuning and chat with Rich and see what he thinks is best.
