Default Roger Clark Downpipe?

Anybody using a Roger Clark open neck de-cat downpipe on their Classic?

Im just interested to know what you think of it? Does it make the exhaust any much louder?

Just ordered one for my newage mate. Not fitted yet but came highly recommended from Harvey Smith and good power gains to be had by all accounts.

Knowing RCM will be a good quality item.........

As with anything RCM provide, it will be quality.

As for the noise aspect, it will increase slightly and sound deeper.

I found that the noise levels dropped a little after it had been on a while, probably due to coking.

It normally increases slightly due to the removal of the cat, which acts as a
silencer, at least thats what I have found.

I have the said item, along with the RCM silenced centre and Backbox.

Have seen other downpipes from so called quality manufacturers and this is in a different league.

I should think its no louder nor quieter than any one elses 3" decat open neck d/pipes.
