Didn't know the council had any say in it ? Unless they try and slap you with an asbo ? Mine has a 3" decat on it and next door barely hear it. Tell them to get none **** windows in their house the tramps.

Put a resonated centre section in, and a sports cat, that will help, or just get a quieter back box, to be honest, if I was a neighbour and I heard some of the cars I have heard firing up I would be pretty narked as well!

Cobra do a bigger box version, Miltek also, and Hayward and Scott, lots of options.

My HS is pretty quiet in comparison, but im changing that as well for the sake of the others, a loud exhaust dosent make you go any faster
