Sunday I will be changing my Magnex oval backbox for a Tsl Firestorm. How much more noise can I expect inside and outside the car?
Currently the standard midsection is still on the car, this will also be changed sunday for a non-resonated one (downpipe is already catless)
Should I buy earplugs in advance, or will the noise still be bearable?

I have heard a firestorm fitted scooby start up and it was LOUD!!! I to have the magnex back box fitted (just enough noise for me) and compaired to that its probably twice as loud.I did have the magnex strait through de-cat pipe fitted for about three weeks but it was just to boomy inside the car so i should imagine the firestorm will be pretty noisy inside the car aswell.

I have de-cat DP, standard cat centre and Firestorm rear, it is LOUD, but not too anti-social. My neighbour has a Blitz NurSpecR and that is louder!
Firestorm is a fantastic sounding box, very well made and fits beautifully in all of 10 minutes. I searched far-and-long for that perfect sound, I am well happy, sounds awesome on full chat!!
PS: I did have straight through centre for a while, but it was too boomy inside car. Putting cat pipe back quietened down inside car a lot, but was not much quieter from outside, which is great
Hope you are as pleased as I am, Rich

The firestorm is on, and I must say it sounds awesome. It pops & bangs like mad -> I like it
I also put on the decat center, and the noise in the car isn't to loud so far.
Some pictures, and a small movie where you can hear the exhaust and also the new HKS bov
