Default Which exhaust for Blobeye - help please

Hi all, and on my 3rd day of subaru ownership and wanting to change the exhaust for some more sound
My car currently has a standard system with a Racebox performance silencer on the rear, and to be honest, it's very quiet.
Looking on Scoobyworld, have ruled the Raptor and Vortex out, as don't really like the angled exit and burnt lip effect.
Was going to go for the Scoobyworld cat back system with the Ninja 2 back box, approx £300. But having read a few threads, it seems that the Blitz Nur Spec R seems to be the ultimate? But at twice the price (£600).
So, whilst I realise that exhausts are always going to be a very personal thing, is the Blitz system worth the extra outlay.
I am not looking for an outright loud system, which sometimes can be a very harsh noise, but want some more volume and a system that gives that quality Scooby sound.
At advise would be much appreciated

What car do you have?

One of the best out there is the hayward and scott system. Mattybr5@poleposition usually has them in the trader section.

Buy the non resonated afterburner centre pipe (scoobyworld) that will make it considerably more louder than just the backbox and its only £100, I've got just a ninja cat back and that sounds nice without being massively over the top, really brings out the flat four sound

Thanks, so are you saying that you just have the Ninja back box on its own? Or, also have the centre pipe fitted as well. By saying the non resonated centre pipe, is that the straight pipe, ie, no middle box in it?
Many thanks.

Assuming this is for noise and not for performance and mapping, the pro r unit from the dealership with a unsilenced centre section from japspeed (cheap but works) works well.....I had that till I went to my 3 inch system

best burble you get from cobb catback
deepest sound ,blitz race and invidia n1 race( i have n1, i think n1 has louder burble
street versions will give you noticable burble but no "roar"-sometimes burble is not enough
race ver. will give You headache
genome is worth consider too
+1 for h&s

Nur Spec R is a full 3" system as far as I'm aware, and is catback, so you get more for your money than the backboxes at half the price. They also sound like the end of the world.

H&S are a little overpriced considering all the scoobyworld exhausts are also H&S, but are about £50 cheaper on the catback systems, if you just want loud get a race pipe!

Thanks for all the replies guys.
Not really looking for outright noise, so am leaning to the system that "Cakeslice1988" has, a cat back system with non resonated centre pipe, and a Ninja 2 back box.
As I read it, this will give me a bit more volume and also enhance that flat 4 burble/noise?

Prodrive system is a nice note, as is hayward & scott and miltek

Have to agree, some systems are just too much.
I believe that Hayward and Scott make the systems for Scoobyworld anyway don't they?

Well, the deed has been done. Ordered a Scoobyworld cat back system with the Ninja2 back box, on Thursday. Had confirmation that it was dispatched yesterday, so waiting like an over excited schoolboy for the postman to come then up to the local exhaust place to get it fitted

Well, it arrived yesterday, and so straight up to my local tyre and exhaust pace to get it fitted.
Am well pleased and now sounds more how I wanted it to
The chap who fitted it, also suggested getting a decat pipe to give it a bit more noise, which I must admit, am very tempted to do. He did say that if I did that it wouldn't need a remap, as the lambda sensor is in front of the cat. Is this right?
Also the box in the centre pipe, is that a cat, or just a silencer.
That's in advance
