Default Too loud. Would this help?

I have recently Upgraded my exhaust on my classic as the last one was really quiet and didn't highlight the rumble, I decided a blitz Nur Spec R was the one I wanted after looking about on YouTube and online, issue is this too loud! It is a stright pipe from the turbo decatted 3" with a 5" backbox. Would fitting this help? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Universal-...f19b332&_uhb=1 know its not the right the right size but an example , I have a bung which helps but it doesn't look good so rather make it quieter another way. Any advice?

I reckon that would work mate
many moons ago an exhaust company called "peco" used to make things similar, think they were called "red bullets" , you could put as many or as few as you wanted into your own system and they worked a treat, not 100% sure that Peco are still trading though

I had a peco on my mk1 clio, still have it somewhere, do you reckon this will restrict too much on the performance side?

Afraid so, anything that isn't the same bore could cause all sorts of problems. surge and boost control problems spring to mind with strange exhaust combo's.
