Default Afterburner Vortex or Ninja Exhaust?

Evening all, picked up my MY99 Impreza Turbo on Saturday and i love it.

It came fitted with a Magnex Oval Backbox. Im loving the rumbling / burbling noise but im not sure if its the magnex or not but any speed over 30mph and it just sounds like a standard fit exhaust. Low down it sounds awesome but a bit too normal for my taste.

Ive been looking at both the Afterburner Vortex Backbox and the Ninja one off of Scoobyworld. Are these two exhaust greatly different? What sort of noise do they make?

I dont want something thats droning and will get tiresome on long journeys but i would like something that has that flat 4 rumble everpresent or something that at least sounds powerful - nothing too tinny sounding or whiney.

Dont suppose anyone has any sound clips other than the ones on the scoobyworld website - it makes the above backboxes sound like chalk and cheese ( the Afterburner sounds awesome / the Ninja sounds pathetic ).

Also noticed you can get the Ninja as a cat-back kit for £329, anyone got this as well?

Thanks

Adam

i thought the sound files sounded the same

i had the ninja full system, then changed the backbox to the vortex and im happier now.

the proof is in the pudding and we all have different perceptions of what sounds right. best thing is for you to listen to others in the flesh.

the vortex is emotional, the sound, the look and the titanium part that goes blue when hot.

They are superb
