Default What exhaust should i buy??

I am looking to change my exhuast and wondering what to buy.

Im currently running full decat with the prodive backbox on my bugeye. I am after a angled exit look that is gonna be a bit louder.

I don't mind it being loud outside but don't want a real drown when going down the motorway. I have been looking at the H&S & Blitz, can anyone give me some ideas of the noise these make outside and inside running on full decat?

Cheers

I have a bugeye with a blitz nur and it is fek me loud I had to fit a noisekiller sound deadening kit in the boot and on long trips I just fit the bung.
The thing is on the way home I have to drive through a steep valley and with the windows down the noise it makes is awsome

How loud would a nur spec r be on a 2005 STI with prodrive sports cat and 2nd de cat. As i have just fitted an afterburner vortex system which i had on my WRX, but on my new STI it does not seem as loud on this car.

I had the Blitz Nur R on my 03STI with Prodrive Sports cat and decat centre.
I thought it was quite loud but not excessive. They are awesome systems and as soon as I get another newage I will defo go for the Blitz again.

How loud is this compared to the standard sti back box do you know?

I'd like to do a full de-cat and back box, but i don't like the look of the big 3' open ended tail pipe, and i don't want something that makes so much noise that as soon as you touch the throttle everyone looks in your direction.

Having a scoob is already a big enough radar to the naysayers and plod without shouting about it yourself i think!
