Question

I've recently returned from Cyprus and having heard the absolutely awesome noise from some of the STIs running around coral bay, have returned home feeling just a little envious. How do I go about waking the neighbours at six every morning while still having a good chance of passing my MOT? I am currently running an RB5 with PPP. I am looking at improving the breathing and exhaust but am still a bit iffy about a full decat.

How much bigger is the pipe on that. prodrive exhaust is better than standard, but looks a little weedy.

Have you thought about an afterburner exhaust or TSL firestorm? They seem to have a deeper growl than the Blitz and will rattle the doors off passing cars Dont get me wrong, the Blitz is an awesome bit of equipment - just trying to give you options to look at

Blitz is very loud! Havent heard an exhaust that can beat it. Tested it on some equipment with a db measurer and the blitz with the scoobysport - oh momma!

Good fun

Ive got the scoobysport and blitz and with the bung out, a bit of revs in a car park sets of alarms no problems. Also once we were messing about with our exhausts and when i reved mine, krade's rear view mirror was vibrating of it.

I know loud cause to much attention and not always good for the cops so most of the time the bung is in and is still quiet loud.

Bung out and it rumbles

Just my 2p worth

RB5tfh,

If you want to go louder than a Blitz then you want the BPM Twister exhaust with no cats. That shakes the interior of the car when driving along lol! Sounds amazing.

I receive an afterburner system probably on thursday. It will mate with a scoobysport 3" to 2.5" down-pipe. If you can wait til just before the weekend, i'll tell you what i think. It was somewhere in the region of £425 including VAT and posting to Scotland for the full system.
